2010 JAPANESE GP: RED BULL DOMINANT, EASY 1-2 WIN AT SUZUKA


Sebastian Vettel finally returned to the top spot of the podium by taking a flawless victory in the Japanese Grand Prix for a second straight year. His Red Bull team-mate Mark Webber was a close second, and extended his championship lead to 14 points.
The pair's title rivals lined up behind with Fernando Alonso third, Jenson Button fourth and Lewis Hamilton fifth, but the weekend belonged to Red Bull. Vettel's solid performance leaves him level with Alonso in the title chase and just 14 points off championship leader Webber with just three races remaining.
