Race results - Italy 2013 - Vettel takes another win, as Alonso takes to the podium
Published by Christine
Sebastian Vettel was totally untroubled from pole to the chequered flag. Behind him there were plenty of fights for position but overall it didn't add up to the most exciting race. Nico Hülkenberg held on for a good points haul, whilst Lewis Hamilton fought incredibly hard to scrape into the top ten. Force India suffered a double retirement, although Sutil came in on the final lap and was therefore classified.
