Kobayashi 6th!

Drive-Through for Button.
 
Disaster race for Mclaren.
 
Disaster of a day for McLaren.

You have got to be kidding me?

This is what Jenson's view of the entire sequence from the final chicane would have been:

He was driving down the dry line. Hamilton picked the narrowing side rather than the widening one and, instead of backing out and not smashing into his team mate, kept his foot in for his second investigation in three laps.

Looks like the Stewards disagree with you ;)
 
Also, I feel really bad for Webber. He have been unlucky in most, if not all races this year.

I don't even like Webber, and even I feel a little sorry for him.

Looks like they disagree with you. He's received a drive-through for speeding under safety car conditions (Hamilton was also under investigation for that), not Hamilton's crash.

Drive-thru penalty was for going too fast when the SC was deployed.
 
No DRS, not much of overtaking. :guilty:

Ah. Sorry then. All I saw was "drive through for Button"

Button was on the left of the track on the straight. The ideal line is actually on the right because the first turn is a left one.

The first bend is a right kink, so Button was taking the racing line. Can you not see how everyone goes down the straight the way Button did?
 
Martin Whitmarsh must be pulling his hair out.

Incident between 3 & 4 will be investigated after the race.
 
Vettel already on his own league. 👍
And it's already rain hard.
 
Button-Hamilton incident will be investigated after the race. Bad to worse for McLaren?

Vettel still flying, pulling a 7 second lead out over Massa as everyone pits for inters.

EDIT: Aaaaaaand the skies open up just as everyone gets onto the inters. Cars already coming back in to switch back to wets.
 
The rain is pouring, safety car out. Definitely jumped the gun on inters I guess.
 
What is Kobayashi doing in 3rd. Safety car. Not good for Button and Alonso.
 
Safety Car!
 
I'm thinking red flag. It's too heavy on the last hairpin.
 
Rain races, why do people find them interesting again?
 
What is this, the Indy 500?
 
Have Kobay come to pit?
If he have, Sauber could opt on one stop strategy. :)
 
This is literally unbelievable. Its raining = safety car.

Absolutely fuming.
 
I know he wont stay there but Kobayashi is 2nd xD
 
I'm predicting many people here would be happy if Kobayashi could get Vettel at the chicane on the restart.:)
 
Oh c'mon! Let them race! Intermediates were the tire of choice until seconds before the safety car. Full wets were designed for these types of conditions.
