Webber grabbed the lead when Vettel, the pole sitter, and Ferrari's Fernando Alonso pitted early in the 70-lap race. Then Vettel's drive-through penalty for a safety-car rule infringement helped Webber to claim his fourth victory of the season and the sixth of his F1 career.

Alonso finished second, while Vettel, who was furious with race officials over his penalty, settled for third.

Vettel set a blistering lap of one minute, 18.773 seconds around the 2.722- mile, 16-turn Hungaroring course for his seventh pole of the season and the 12th of his Formula One career. Red Bull continued its domination in qualifying this season by claiming its 11th pole in the first 12 grand prix.

"It was a very good day for us," Vettel said. "All weekend here we felt very comfortable from the first practice session onwards with the car. I think we were able to improve on it again a little bit overnight." Vettel was 0.4 seconds quicker than Webber. It's the sixth all front row for Red Bull this year.

F1's Bernie Ecclestone and Monaco Automobile Club president Michel Boeri met Wednesday in London to work out details of an extension.

This year's Monaco Grand Prix was won by Mark Webber.

Days after their controversial 1-2 finish in the German Grand Prix, Ferrari is hoping its momentum continues for this weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, but without any dispute.

Fernando Alonso claimed the victory at Hockenheim, but his teammate, Felipe Massa, was robbed of a potential win after his Ferrari team instructed him to move aside and allow Alonso to take the lead with 20 laps remaining.

Felipe Massa was robbed of a potential win after his Ferrari team instructed the Brazilian driver to move aside and allow his teammate Fernando Alonso to take the lead with less than 20 laps remaining.

Shortly before Alonso made his winning pass, Massa's race engineer, Rob Smedley, told his driver over the radio that "Fernando is faster than you. Can you confirm you understand the message?" Alonso won his second grand prix this season, while Massa settled for second.

While leading on lap 49, Felipe Massa from Ferrari moved aside to allow teammate Fernando Alonso to take the top position. Prior to Alonso's winning pass, Massa's race engineer, Rob Smedley, told the Brazilian over the team radio that "Fernando is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?" Stewards said Ferrari contravened Article 39.1, which regulates against team orders, and Article 151 (c) of the 2010 FIA International Sporting Code, which relates to bringing the sport into disrepute.

Ferrari maintained their action did not constitute a team order.

Massa dominated most of the race and held the lead on lap 49 before Alonso easily passed him in turn six to take the top position. Massa was told by his race engineer over the team radio that Alonso had the faster car.

Alonso had been pushing Massa for the lead several times prior to his winning pass. Massa appeared to make room for Alonso when he overtook him.

Vettel topped Alonso by only 0.002 seconds, giving the young German his third consecutive pole and the sixth in 11 grand prix this season. Alonso was quickest in the first two qualifying sessions, and led the way before Vettel completed his last lap around the 2.842-mile, 13-turn Hockenheim course in one minute, 13.791 seconds.

"It was very close," Vettel said. "Throughout the session, Fernando was very strong, and in general, Ferrari is very competitive here. We knew it would be a difficult session, but obviously two-thousandths of a second is not really the margin you are looking for." Alonso will start on the front row for the first time this season.

The Formula One season resumes this weekend with the German Grand Prix, which returns to the 2.842-mile (4.574-km), 13-turn Hockenheimring circuit.

With 10 of 19 rounds completed this year, Lewis Hamilton from McLaren enters the German GP as the championship points leader. Hamilton has accumulated 145 points so far, compared to 133 for Jenson Button, who is the defending F1 champion and Hamilton's teammate.

Webber started alongside Vettel on the front row, but Vettel got pushed wide as Webber made the pass coming out of the first corner. The young German ran off course twice and suffered a punctured right-rear tire when he drove over the rumble strips.

He had to pit unexpectedly, which placed him at the tail end of the 24-car field.

Vettel, who started on the pole and easily won last year's race at Silverstone, rounded the 3.667 miles, 18-turn circuit in one minute, 29.615 seconds for his fifth pole in 10 grand prix this season.

Both Red Bull drivers topped the time charts in the three weekend practices on the circuit's new track layout.

The British Grand Prix will be homecoming event of sorts for many Formula One teams this weekend. McLaren, Red Bull Racing, Mercedes GP, Williams, Renault, Force India, Lotus Racing, and Virgin Racing are all based in the United Kingdom.

With nine of 19 grand prix completed this season, the battle is heating up between McLaren and Red Bull Racing in both the drivers' and constructors' championships.

Vettel started on the pole and led all 57 laps around the 3.367-mile Valencia street circuit for his second win of the season and the seventh of his Formula One career.

While Vettel took the victory, his teammate, Mark Webber, was involved in a horrifying crash early in the race when he slammed into the back of Heikki Kovalainen. Webber's car went airborne and landed upside down before he made hard contact with the tire barrier. He walked away from the incident uninjured.

Vettel lapped the 3.367-mile Valencia street circuit in one minute, 37.587 seconds to give Red Bull its eighth pole position in the first nine grand prix this year.

Two weeks ago, Lewis Hamilton from McLaren ended Red Bull's pole streak in Canada.

After a thrilling race two weeks ago in Montreal, Canada, Formula One returns to its home continent this weekend with the European Grand Prix on the streets of Valencia, Spain.

The European GP had been scheduled in August the past two years, but was moved to the last weekend in June for this year's F1 calendar.

Hamilton, the pole sitter, passed Red Bull's Mark Webber with 20 laps remaining in the 70-lap event at the 2.709-mile, 14-turn Circuit Gilles Villeneuve road course.

He then held off Button in final laps to win at Montreal for the second time in his three attempts here. His first career Formula One victory came in the Canadian GP during his 2007 rookie season.

Hamilton broke Red Bull's streak of winning the pole for the first seven Formula One grand prix this season after the Briton turned a lap of one minute,15.105seconds around the 2.709-mile, 14-turn Circuit Gilles Villeneuve road course.

The 2008 world champion recorded his first pole of the season and the 18th of his F1 career. His first pole and grand prix win came in the Canadian GP during his 2007 rookie season. He also won the pole for this race the following year.

After a one-year hiatus, Formula One returns to North America for the Canadian Grand Prix at Montreal's Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.

The 4.361-kilometer (2.709-mile), 14-turn road course is regarded as one of the most unusual tracks on the F1 calendar.

Webber, the pole sitter, held the lead after 40 laps were completed, but Vettel chased him down, and the two ran side-by-side for the top position. When Vettel tried to overtake Webber, the two collided and spun around. That allowed Hamilton to claim the lead and Button grab the second spot.

Hamilton and Button later dueled for the lead. Button passed his McLaren teammate for the position as they crossed the line to complete lap 48, but the two slightly bumped into each other heading into the first corner, allowing Hamilton to reassume the lead and keep it for good. He claimed his first victory of the season and the 12th of his Formula One career.

Webber held off McLaren's Lewis Hamilton by setting a new track qualifying record of one minute, 26.295 seconds at the 5.338-kilometer Istanbul Park circuit.

It was Webber's third straight pole and the seventh consecutive for Red Bull.

Mark Webber has been red hot in Formula One racing, and his momentum likely will continue this weekend in the Turkish Grand Prix.

During the month of May, Webber has won the Spanish Grand Prix and the Monaco Grand Prix, after starting on the pole and leading every lap in each one of those events. He has accumulated 50 points in the last two races, which has placed him into a tie with Red Bull teammate Sebastian Vettel in the F1 world championship standings.

F1 top boss Bernie Ecclestone and race promoter Full Throttle Productions announced on Tuesday that Austin will serve as the host city of the U.S. Grand Prix until 2021. The racing circuit has not competed in America since 2007.

"We are extremely honored and proud to reach an agreement with the F1 Commercial Rights Holder," Tavo Hellmund, managing partner of Full Throttle Productions, LP, said in a statement.

It's the second race in a row that Webber led from lights to checkers, as the Australian won last weekend's Spanish Grand Prix.

Vettel took the second position from Renault's Robert Kubica on the opening lap, and then held it for the remainder of the event, finishing 0.4 seconds behind Webber.

Webber, who won last weekend's Spanish Grand Prix from the pole, turned in the quickest lap time of one minute, 13.826 seconds around the 2.075-mile street circuit in Monte Carlo.

Three of his four Formula One career poles have come this season.
