ABU DHABI // Sebastian Vettel matched Michael Schumacher’s record for most successive wins in one Formula One season as he triumphed in the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

The German, already been crowned world champion, led from start to finish after he took the lead from Red Bull Racing teammate Mark Webber at the first corner.

Webber came home second, ahead of the Mercedes-GP of Nico Rosberg and the Lotus of Romain Grosjean.

Fernando Alonso was fifth for Ferrari, but will be the subject of a post-race investigation for a passing move on Jean-Eric Vergne that saw him go off the track on the run down to Turn 5.

Paul di Resta was a surprise sixth for Force India on a one-stop strategy, ahead of Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa.

Kimi Raikkonen’s race for Lotus lasted one corner as he broke his front suspension on the rear of a Caterham.

The Finn had started from the back of the grid after being disqualified from qualifying for a technical infringement.

Who was Alfred Nobel?

The Nobel Prize was created by wealthy Swedish chemist and entrepreneur Alfred Nobel.

  • In his will he dictated that the bulk of his estate should be used to fund "prizes to those who, during the preceding year, have conferred the greatest benefit to humankind".
  • Nobel is best known as the inventor of dynamite, but also wrote poetry and drama and could speak Russian, French, English and German by the age of 17. The five original prize categories reflect the interests closest to his heart.
  • Nobel died in 1896 but it took until 1901, following a legal battle over his will, before the first prizes were awarded.
