Sebastian Vettel won the Korean Grand Prix Sunday to secure Red Bull's second successive Formula One constructors' championship with his 10th victory of the season.
The 24-year-old German, who clinched back-to-back drivers' title in Japan last weekend, took the lead from McLaren's Lewis Hamilton on the opening lap and never looked back despite a safety car period bunching up the field.
With three races remaining, and a maximum 129 points to be won, Red Bull have an insurmountable 140-point lead over McLaren.
Vettel's 20th Formula One victory left him three off seven times champion and compatriot Michael Schumacher's 2004 record of 13 wins in a single season with Ferrari.
