Fernando Alonso wins Korean Grand Prix from Lewis Hamilton Ferrari's Fernando Alonso moved into the championship lead after winning a rain-affected Korean Grand Prix.
McLaren's Lewis Hamilton was second and Ferrari's Felipe Massa came third, but Jenson Button finished 12th to all but end his hopes of retaining the title.
Alonso now leads by 11 points from Red Bull's Mark Webber, who crashed early on, and 21 points from Hamilton.
Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel retired from the lead with an engine failure and is now 25 points behind Alonso.
With only two races remaining in the season, however, Alonso insisted nothing had really changed.
We know with the new points system everything can change in one race - if you don't score, you lose 25 points to your opponents," said the Spaniard.
"Here it was bad luck for Mark and Sebastian. Anything can happen in the next two races. As we repeat many times, being consistent is very important, we cannot forget we need to be on the podium and fighting for the victory in the last two races."
Korean Grand Prix - Top three drivers
Hamilton said it was a great result for him.
"My tyres were shot at the end, so it was just about trying to get the car home," he said.
Button, in contrast, said it had been an horrific day.
"I just didn't have any grip, and at times I was the slowest person on the circuit. Also I was just destroying tyres. It's been a sad Grand Prix."

With rain falling, race director Charlie Whiting decided the start should take place behind the safety car.
Three laps in, with Alonso describing conditions as "the worst I have ever driven in", the race was suspended and the cars returned to the grid.
After a 45 minute delay the rain had eased sufficiently for the race to be re-started, still under the safety car. It was to be another 13 increasingly frustrating laps before the safety car finally came in at the end of lap 17.
The drama began almost immediately, as coming out of Turn 12, Webber ran wide and was unable to collect his car before spinning across the track, hitting the wall, spinning back and colliding with the unfortunate Nico Rosberg.
