Vettel: 'I'm happy with second place'

Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel has insisted that second place on the grid is a good place to begin Sunday's Korean Grand Prix.

Vettel was edged out by Red Bull teammate Mark Webber in Saturday's qualifying session but the current world champion has insisted that he could take advantage on the first lap of the race.

He told reporters: "Overall, I think we can be quite happy with the result. I think second position is a good place to start.

"There is a long straight after the start so it could be interesting tomorrow."

The 25-year-old is currently four points behind championship leader Fernando Alonso in the drivers' standings.
