2010 BRASIL GP: EASY 1-2 WIN FOR RED BULL
Vettel takes Webber`s Title?!?
Vettel wins the Brazilian Grand Prix ahead of Mark Webber. Alonso third, Hamilton fourth and Button fifth. Hamilton is still just in the title chase but Button drops out.The German took the lead at the start of the race and never allowed Red Bull team-mate Webber a look in. Webber's second place clinched the constructors' title for Red Bull, but Fernando Alonso's third limited his loss in the points table.
Pole winner Nico Hulkenberg's time in the sun was short-lived, as he was out-dragged to the first corner by Vettel and then demoted to third by Webber at Turn 4. It took Alonso another six laps to get by the Williams, thanks mainly to some skilled and spirited defence by Hulkenberg once he settled into the race. By the time Alonso had clear air he was seven seconds behind Webber, and even then lapping half a second slower. Hamilton was next in the queue to pass Hulkenberg and was stuck there for another eight laps, unable to make a move stick, until the Williams dived into the pits on lap 15. So Vettel and Webber were freed from the start right up and came to easy 1-2 win for Red Bull.

2010 BRASIL GP: FIRST ROUND TO RED BULL
FIRST FREE PRACTICE
Webber Champion?!? No way, I`m going to be Champion.
Vettel set the fastest time of 1:12.328 on first free practice for Brasilian GP, finishing half a second ahead of his team-mate and the McLaren duo. German team made the most of a warm track conditions to rack up plenty of mileage in order to evaluate different set-ups. Much more was expected from Ferrari duo, but they were so reserved this morning, finishing to 13 and14 position.
Robert Kubica and Nico Rosberg were once again the best of the rest in fifth and sixth, with the session's early pace setters Rubens Barrichello and Michael Schumacher seventh and eighth. The Saubers of Nick Heidfeld and Kamui Kobayashi rounded out the top 10, though the Japanese finished the session in the wall after spinning on his last lap.

SECOND FREE PRACTICE
Red Bull continued where it left off in the second session of free practice for the Brazilian Grand Prix with Sebastian Vettel once again topping the timesheets from team-mate Mark Webber. Webber was quarter of a second clear of championship leader Fernando Alonso, who was at least back at the sharp end of the time sheet following his engine problem in FP1.
Lewis Hamilton pronounced himself happy with the modifications McLaren has made to its floor and set the fourth quickest time, while team-mate Jenson Button was still complaining of a lack of rear grip and could only manage seventh.Felipe Massa set the fifth quickest time as both Ferraris vastly improved on their morning's pace, but the Brazilian's session ended half an hour early when he reported a problem with the clutch and stopped on the back straight. Robert Kubica was sixth, with Nick Heidfeld, Nico Rosberg and Michael Schumacher completing the top 10 behind Button.
