Race Notes

Sebastian Vettel makes the pole position pay off in Suzuka.

Vettel gets away cleanly while mayhem results in his Red Bull teammate Mark Webber being dropped back out of winning contention, and points leader Fernando Alonso retiring. Vettel then dominates the race, cutting Alonso's championship lead to 4 points.

Alonso's Ferrari teammate picks up the opening and races home to a 2nd place finish, trailed by Sauber's Kamui Kobayashi, who makes a popular podium appearance in Japan.
