F1: Sebastian Vettel World Title Likely to Be Stripped Of

Shocking updates from the Racing world, Sebastian Vettel's third Formula 1 world title could be stripped of after footage showing the Red Bull driver illegal overtaking Toro Rosso’s Jean-Eric Vergne under yellow flag conditions in the early laps of the Brazil Formula 1 GP at Interlagos emerged on YouTube.

Such overtaking is outlawed and guilty parties are handed a drive-through penalty during the race. Vettel (25) won his third F1 crown after finishing sixth in Brazil F1 and beating Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, who came second, by just 3 points.

FIA, the motorsport's world governing body, have until Friday (November 30) to investigate and if found guilty then Vettel will be demoted to eighth place and will see Fernando Alonso wining the coveted Drivers Championship by a solitary point.
