Which driver won four straight Formula One world titles from 2010 to 2013?

Sebastian Vettel won four straight Formula One World Drivers’ Championships from 2010 through 2013. He achieved the feat with Red Bull Racing and became the youngest driver to win four titles.

Vettel secured his first championship in 2010 after a closely fought season decided at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. He then defended the title in 2011, 2012, and 2013. His 2011 campaign was especially dominant: he won 11 of the season’s 19 races and took 15 pole positions.

The 2012 championship was much tighter. Vettel recovered from a difficult start and finished ahead of Fernando Alonso after the final race in Brazil. In 2013, he produced one of Formula One’s longest winning streaks, taking nine consecutive victories from the Belgian Grand Prix through the season finale.

The wording “four straight” matters: Vettel did not merely win four titles in his career; he won them in consecutive seasons. Kimi Räikkönen, Lewis Hamilton, and Fernando Alonso were major rivals during parts of that period, but none is the answer to this four-year sequence.
