Points finish after excellent drive

Sebastian Vettel achieved a points finish after a brilliant drive from the penultimate row of the grid at the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix. The German was relegated to the near back of the grid after replacing his power unit and it looked like it was going to be a forgettable day for Vettel. However, you can never write a former Champion off and Vettel produced some incredible driving to make up the deficit. Combined with a strategy by the team, he eventually finished tenth place, taking a Championship point and placing ahead of the likes of Giovinazzi, Räikkönen and Russell.
