Britain 2011 - Race results - Webber loses his lead, as Alonso jumps up to win at Silverstone
Published by Christine
A mixed up race from start to finish. Mark Webber lost his lead off the line, but Sebastian Vettel lost his lead in the pit stops. It was Fernando Alonso who capitalised on the misfortunes of others and took a superb win for Ferrari. McLaren had a difficult day, with Hamilton forced to slow down due to a lack of fuel, and Button suffering at the hands of a faulty wheel nut.
