Europe 2010 - Race result - Vette wins in Valencia, with two McLaren drivers on the podium

Published by Christine

Vettel led from the start, and controlled the race well - in part helped by Kobayashi. Teammate Webber was not so lucky, or maybe very lucky, suffering a high impact crash, but climbing from the car uninjured. The two McLaren drivers joined Vettel on the podium.
