No one could get close to Sebastian Vettel today as he dominated from pole position, but the battle behind was interesting as Button and Webber fought for second place, and then Alonso and Webber fought for third. Further down the order, there was a mix of strategies as some tried to get rid of the harder compounds immediately, perhaps in preparation for a safety car. There was no such luck for them, despite a few incidents including another installment in the Drama of Massa and Hamilton.
