Mark Webber led a Red Bull 1-2 in the Brazilian Grand Prix on Sunday to celebrate his first victory of the year in the last race of the Formula One season.
The Australian, second on the starting grid, passed World champion Sebastian Vettel for the lead after 30 of the 71 laps when his teammate was apparently wrestling with a gearbox problem.
German Vettel, who wrapped up his second title last month with four races to spare, finished second — 16.9 seconds behind — and ahead of McLaren's Jenson Button.
Force India shines
Massa, twice a winner of his home race, eventually finished fifth ahead of Germany's Adrian Sutil for Force India. Sutil's teammate, Briton Paul di Resta, took the eighth spot.
