Vettel, Schumacher win RoC Nations
Reigning F1 world champion Sebastian Vettel and former champion Michael Schumacher won the Race of Champions Nations Cup for the fifth

The duo defeated Denmark's Tom Kristensen, eight-time winner of the Le Mans 24-Hour Race, and Finnish rally driver Juho Hänninen, two
rounds to nil.
"Five, that's great," said Vettel, who this year wrapped up his second successive F1 world title.
"We're proud to have our names on the trophy once again," added seven-time world champion Schumacher.
