British Grand Prix (2011) RESULT

British Grand Prix 2011 With all the arguments over the blown diffuser and how it would penalise Red Bull more than any other team on the grid, it was still business as usual with Webber and Vettel filling the front row of the grid. Just for a change Webber was on pole, but that lasted all of a few yards as Vettel swept past his team mate on the first lap and stayed there until his second pit stop. Then it went a bit wrong.
