Starting from 18th I knew I had to pass as many cars as I could before they got strung out. I was able to do this aided by the circuits two long straights. I did have a hiccup on the first lap when I spun off at the 1st bend.

By the time I pitted on lap 4 for fresh tyres I'd managed to climb to 4th. After the pit stop I was back in the pack however after they had all pitted I found myself in the lead.

I managed to hang to win my first Korean grand prix.

My fastest lap of the race was 1.43.683, my fastest of the weekend.

25 points towards the championship scored this weekend..

I was now first in the championship ratings with 217 points 1 ahead of Mark Webber.

Williams were still 4th in the Constructors 219 points behind Red Bull.
