Sebastian Vettel has notched up another victory by taking the European Grand Prix comfortably in front of the luxury yachts of Valencia's harbour. The German became the first driver in F1 history to finish in the top two in the opening eight races of the season.
In completing successive wins at the Valencia Street Circuit and Canada a fortnight ago, Vettel has brought home his Red Bull 10.8 seconds clear of Fernando Alonso in his Ferrari, with Mark Webber completing the podium in his Red Bull.
After finishing second in each of the three previous races at this venue, McLaren's Lewis Hamilton was a distant fourth, 46secs behind Vettel.
Vettel placed himself in a strong position for the European Grand Prix by winning pole position late in the final qualifying round in Valencia.
Vettel beat Fernando Alonso by almost half a second with his Ferrari team-mate Felipe Massa third. Jenson Button for McLaren was in fifth with his team-mate Lewis Hamilton two places further back.
