Sebastian Vettel made it an all-time record-equalling ninth straight victory as he took the chequered flag at the season-ending Brazilian Grand Prix.

The four-times world champion has won every single race since Formula One's summer break in August, matching a 60-year-old feat set by Alberto Ascari, who won the final six races of 1952 and the first three of 1953.

Vettel has also equalled Michael Schumacher's 2004 haul of 13 wins in a season to complete one of the most dominant campaigns ever witnessed in the sport.

In his 215th and final race in F1 before joining Porsche's sportscar programme, Mark Webber at least joined his Red Bull team-mate Vettel on the podium with a runner-up finish ahead of Ferrari's Fernando Alonso.
