Alonso races into the lead after Vettel, Webber crash out
FERRARI’S Fernando Alonso won a rain-hit and chaotic Korean Grand Prix to seize the Formula One championship lead yesterday after both his Red Bull rivals failed to finish.

In an inaugural race delayed by a downpour, started, stopped again and then re-started behind the safety car after a 48-minute wait, the Spaniard could scarcely believe his good fortune and others’ bad luck.

With two races to go, and a maximum 50 points to be won under the new scoring system, Alonso celebrated his fifth win of the year to turn a 14-point deficit into an 11-point lead over Red Bull’s Australian Mark Webber.
