2010 Highlights

Here are the moments from 2010 that gave perceptive viewers a look at Petrov's genuine potential.

Flying start in Australia:
 

  
Cutting his teeth with Hamilton in Malaysia:


Overtaking the 7 times world champion in China:

The first encounter with Alonso, holding him up for most of the race until finally having his wheel punctured as he was passed. Additionally, Turkey was where Vitaly recorded his first ever fastest lap during a race.

Petrov qualifies 7th for the Hungarian GP with an awesome lap, bettering Kubica for the first time and then has a great race to 5th, his best finish of the season.

 Despite a disappointing mistake in qualifying, has a fantastic race in Spa, going from 23rd to 9th, including one of the overtaking maneuvers of the year on Rosberg.

And finally ending the season on a high note, keeping world championship contender Alonso behind him with a truly skilled defending drive and then giving another perfectly weighted media response afterwards.
