Webber did manage to secure second, just ahead of Nico Rosberg in third.
Lewis Hamilton's race resulted in a seventh-place finish, although he struggled for grip.
Kimi Raikkonen, who started from the back of the grid, had to retire after one lap because of front suspension damage.
McLaren driver Jenson Button also reported front wing damage and after 23 laps he fell to 17th on the grid. However, the Brit was able to climb back up to 12th, but missed out on any points.
Romain Grosjean just missed out on a podium finish for Lotus, finishing ahead of Fernando Alonso, who fought his way from 11th on the grid to take fifth.
Paul di Resta, Felipe Massa, Sergio Perez and Adrian Sutil made up the rest of the top 10, while lower down the field Nico Hulkenberg was handed a drive-through penalty for an unsafe release and was unable to make up much ground on those in front of him.
