Defending world champion Sebastian Vettel raced ahead of Lewis Hamilton to win the Spanish Grand Prix on 22 May 2011. It was Vettel's 13th career win and he now has 118 points to lead Hamilton who is on 77 points by 41 points.
Vettel representing Red Bull won four of this season's five races. In this race he needed all his skill and nerve to edge out his McLaren rival by just six tenths of a second after 66 laps of the Catalunya circuit near Barcelona.
Hamilton's team mate and fellow-Briton Jenson Button was third, beating Red Bull's Australian Mark Webber for the final place on the podium and helped by a three-stop strategy to the others' four.
