Webber wins British Grand Prix

Mark Webber (Red Bull) has won the British Grand Prix ahead of Lewis Hamilton (McLaren) and Nico Rosberg (Mercedes).

Massa, who famously span five times here in the sodden 2008 race, continued his troubled relationship with Silverstone as he pirouetted on lap 40 before taking to the pits for fresh rubber.

Vettel's charge through the field continued unabated and on lap 41 he barged aside fellow German Schumacher at Brooklands to move into eighth.

The Red Bull was quickly on the tail of Sutil, taking a lunge into Village Corner on lap 44 but the Force India held station.

Alguersuari retired on lap 46 when he span off at Luffield Corner, becoming the fourth retirement after De la Rosa, Kubica and Di Grassi.

Alonso's frustrating afternoon continued on lap 49 when he touched with Force India's Vitantonio Liuzzi, necessitating a pit stop which finally ended the Spaniard's hopes of points.

Vettel made his move on Sutil on the penultimate lap, the Red Bull crudely barging past the Force India to take seventh.

Vettel's battle was in stark contrast to the serene display of Webber out front, who took the chequered flag after 52 inch-perfect laps to register his third win of the season.

The win takes the Australian onto 128 points, seven ahead of Vettel.

Hamilton's second place sees him increase his lead at the head of the drivers' standings to 12 points over Button, who came home fourth behind Rosberg.

Barrichello was fifth at the flag, ahead of Kobayashi and Vettel, while Sutil, Schumacher and Hulkenberg rounded out the points-paying positions.
