Fernando Alonso was left a dissapointed figure after the Korean GP as he finally lost his long-standing championship lead to his rival Sebastien Vettel. To rub salt into Fernando's wounds, it was his title rival Sebastian Vettel's third consecutive grand prix victory on Sunday (Singapore, Japan adn Korea).
Red Bull's German, who finished 8 seconds ahead of his teammate and pole sitter Mark Webber, is now 6 points ahead of Spaniard Alonso with just four races still to run. Sebastien Vettel led from the pole position to clinch his third consecutive win with team mate Mark Webber coming in second to make it a Red Bull one and two.

Given the new dominance of the RB8 car - whose designer Adrian Newey collected the constructors' trophy on Sunday's podium - Vettel must now be considered the favourite to secure a third consecutive drivers' title next month. "At the moment Red Bull are difficult to beat," Alonso, who finished third ahead of his resurgent teammate Felipe Massa, admitted to podium interviewer Johnny Herbert.
Vettel said: "I'm looking forward to the next couple of races."
