Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel wins European GP

Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel has won the European Grand Prix, dominating the race from pole position while his teammate Mark Webber survived a spectacular crash.

It was Vettel's second win of the season. He completed the 57 laps of the Valencia street circuit Sunday ahead of McLaren's Lewis Hamilton.

Jenson Button was third for McLaren.

Webber emerged unhurt after a collision with Heikki Kovalainen's Lotus flipped his car early in the race.

It was Hamilton's third second-place finish in Valencia, after overcoming a drive-through penalty for overtaking the safety car.

Hamilton leads the overall standings with 127 points, ahead of world champion Button on 121. Vettel improves to third on 115 points.
