The 2013 Formula One season had seen Red Bull Racing's Sebastian Vettel achieve dominant form through the latter portion of the year, winning successive Grands Prix as his team's car proved superior to rivals across multiple circuits.
Held at the Circuit of the Americas on November 17, 2013, the race was the eighteenth round of the 2013 season. Vettel won the race, claiming his eighth consecutive victory of the season and setting a new Formula One record for consecutive wins within a single championship campaign.
