Sebastian Vettel won the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday but the Red Bull driver will have to wait a little longer to clinch his second Formula One world championship.The German led throughout from pole position to finish 1.7 seconds ahead of fast-finishing McLaren driver Jenson Button, with Red Bull's Mark Webber third.
Vettel leads the drivers' championship by 124 points with five races left and is virtually certain to take back-to-back titles. To prevent that happening, second-placed Button would need to win every race while Vettel fails to gain any points. Vettel has 309 points with Button on 185. The 24-year-old German led from pole to flag and despite a spirited challenge over the final five laps from Button in his McLaren, held on to move 124 points clear of the Briton with just 125 available from the five races remaining.
