Formula 1: Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna cemented their legendary rivalry in 1989 and 1990, after crashes at the Japan Grand Prix would decide the World Title race in the respective years.

Prost & Senna's legendary Japan crashes | 02:33 Sebastian Vettel idolised Michael Schumacher as a young German driver powering up through the ranks towards Formula 1.He claimed his first championship after three campaigns — like Schumacher.Is he poised now to come back from retirement to help Mercedes rebuild — like Schumacher?

“A German driver, multi world championship winning driver and someone who has got amazing values who would continue to take the team forward — I would love it if he came back.” Wolff is said to be considering Mercedes junior and Formula 2 rookie Andrea Kimi Antonelli for a rapid F1 debut next season, though an apprenticeship with customer team Williams could open the door to a short-term deal to a more experienced driver like Vettel to fill the gap.

“I’m really happy and open to have anybody as my teammate. Whether it’s a world champion, whether it’s a rookie, it doesn’t change how I go about my business.”ALONSO WON’T CHANGE STYLE DESPITE HEFTY AUSTRALIA PENALTY The stewards slapped Alonso with a 20-second penalty for dangerous driving, dropping him to eighth in the classification.“But I think it will not change much on how we drive and how we approach racing.

“It is not the safest corner at the moment on that track … and that’s probably for me a more important point to change for next year.” “We’ve got so many duties to take care of when we’re driving … if you add into the mix that you’re allowed to brake in the middle of a straight to get a tactical advantage, I think that is maybe one step too far.”

With Sargeant’s former tub already set up for Albon, the American said he would race the repaired model, though he didn’t expect it to carry a disadvantage this weekend.
