Lewis Hamilton led a McLaren 1-2 at the Turkish Grand Prix on Sunday after a run-in between teammates Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel denied Red Bull a sweep.
The Red Bull pair touched as Vettel looked to pass along the Istanbul Park Circuit's fastest section, causing the German driver to spin out of the race. Webber, who had led for the entire 40 laps to that point, recovered for third behind Jenson Button as Red Bull's pit lane team looked on in astonishment.
The McLaren team also tensed up near the end as its drivers exchanged the lead but Hamilton eventually earned his first win of the season after rain sprinkled the circuit.
Webber leads F1's driver standings with 93 points.
