The German star is hoping to become the most successful driver in the history of the Australian Grand Prix by clinching his fourth title.

Vettel would join Australian racing legend Lex Davison and Formula One icon Michael Schumacher as the only drivers, who have won the race four times.
 
Last year, Vettel finished fourth in the Australian Grand Prix and he will be keen to improve his performance in the first race of the 2020 season.
 
The race was won by Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas with his teammate Lewis Hamilton and Red Bull racing star Max Verstappen finishing second and third respectively.
 
Vettel went on to finish fifth on the 2019 Drivers' Championship standings behind his teammate Charles Leclerc, who secured a fourth spot finish.

The 32-year-old driver, who has won four Formula One World titles, says he needs to perform better this year.

“There are things I can do better that I know I can do better. That’s the first thing I look at and obviously try to improve,” Vettel said on Fox Sports.

“It’s always in the details, small adjustments, nothing big or major. I don’t need to drive differently, I know how to drive.”

“I’m honest enough to admit that I should have done a better job. Clearly I look at myself first, address all the points that I feel need to.”

Mercedes also won last year's World Constructors Championship with Ferrari and Red Bull finishing second, and third respectively.
