2011 SINGAPORE GP: VETTEL DID IT AGAIN!!!

Seb step closer to secure second World Champion Title!!!
Sebastian Vettel took a dominant victory at the Singapore Grand Prix, holding off a late charge from Jenson Button whose second place ensured the title hunt will stay alive for at least another round. Vettel utterly dominated the majority of the race. The Red Bull man was a second per lap faster than his pursuers at first, and though the pack closed up with a mid-race safety car after Michael Schumacher clipped Sergio Perez and was launched into a violent accident - from which he emerged unhurt - Vettel had a cushion of backmarkers behind him at the restart and was eight seconds clear again after just one lap.
The Singapore Grand Prix, Marina Bay, Singapore;
61 laps, 309.087km, Weather: Dry, night race.
