Summary
Lewis Hamilton produced a masterful drive to win Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix ahead of Timo Glock and Fernando Alonso as Jenson Button got more points on the board to shore up his championship lead. Starting from first on the grid, Hamilton led from start to finish in difficult driving conditions to take the chequered flag in his McLaren, 9.6 seconds ahead of the Toyota. Spain's Alonso, who won here last year in controversial circumstances when Nelson Piquet junior deliberately crashed, brought some cheer to Renault with a hard-fought third to make the podium again.It was also Glock's best finish of the year, and he was ecstatic. Germany's Sebastien Vettel took fourth but it could have been much better. At least he finished one place ahead of championship leader Button. Button now has 84 points with his Brawn GP team-mate Rubens Barrichello 15 behind after ending sixth here.
