Sebastian Vettel can win his 51st career race in France this weekend, which would equal the Ferrari driver to French legend Alain Prost.

Vettel already stated that Ferrari have solved their tyre issue that caused their car to have massive degradation. Still, even though they resolved the issue, Vettel is still not convinced that Ferrari will have the tools to take away a win in France.

"This season, the difference between the top three teams has been incredibly small," the German told Motorsport-Total.

"Right now I have the feeling that besides Mercedes and Ferrari, Red Bull will have a chance to win on Sunday."

So, Vettel could get his 51st win this weekend. The driver with the most wins out of everyone on the grid right now is Lewis Hamilton, who has an impressive 64 career wins to compliment his four titles. Still, Hamilton is a long way from record-holder Michael Schumacher, who has a whopping 92 Grand Prix wins. Still not quite there, fellas. He's not called the 'Rekordmeister' for nothing.
