Vettel on brink after Singapore win

Sebastian Vettel produced another faultless drive in a near-perfect season to move within one point of becoming the youngest driver in Formula One history to claim back-to-back world titles.

In taking the chequered flag by 1.7secs from Jenson Button in his McLaren in today’s Singapore Grand Prix, Vettel holds a 124-point lead over the Briton, with just 125 available from the final five races.
