Sebastian Vettel breaks all the jinxes and wins the German Grand Prix.
An interesting race today at Nurburgring with tyres again in the spotlight and with a lot of action down the field.
In the end Red Bull proved that they had the pace to control the race from one end to the other but at time and especially in the last ten laps both Lotuses were particularly hungry but Vettel managed to keep them behind.
Ferrari had to settle with fourth as Fernando Alonso said if you have the pace you win if not is not important what tyre you are on.
