Marc Webber breaks duck to take German GP win
Marc Webber took his first victory in yesterday's race at the Nurburgring in Germany. The Australian was able to command the race from the front, despite serving a drive-through penalty for swerving in front of Rubens Barrichello's Brawn at the start. Webber dropped to eighth after his first pit stop, but was back in the lead by the halfway point of the race and was able to cruise to the chequered flag.
Sebastien Vettel came in second place, cutting the championship lead of Jensen Button down to 21 points. Phillipe Massa was happy to take the third space on the podium for Ferrari, with Nico Rosberg in fourth, Button fifth, Barrichello in sixth, Alonso seventh and Kovalainen in eighth.
