Bah - safety car gives Vettel the win 🙁
The beeb haven't followed Webber, but he must have been driving out of his skin to get back up to 5th.
If they pit when the safety cars out, do they rejoin in their last position?
Dont the bbc/others only use the pictures streamed to them from the circuit cameras?
Red Flag....
well that's disappointing.
Hope Petrov is ok...
What a disappointing finish
Resumed! Go go go
Not quite...
race back on
hoorah
They're going to finish!

Nope - they lose track position if they get overtaken.
Good call keeping LH out with a broken wing by the looks of things.
can they change tyres when red flagged?
apparently so... that changes things 8-(
Nobody knows...
Another good advert for the Hans device today. The angle Petrov hit the wall is exactly what it's designed to help with, it's also the same angle the Dale Earnhart Snr hit a wall after campaigning against the use of them.....
Changing the tyres really spoils the race 🙁
Grrr - total anticlimax now. Never mind 🙁
Could be some do or die dives for victory though....
The only person who doesn't need a victory is the one at the front. Could be interesting, but probably won't be...
[i]shite, seems that it's messed up Webber far more than vettel
They're all in this together...
He left it too late to shoot down the inside
Hamilton is turning into a right obnoxious stroker
Well, Hami didn't touch Crasher in the tunnel....
JB chewing Alonso's arse. COME ON!
Only because Vettel's holding him up
do they rejoin in their last position?
Grrr - total anticlimax now.

Were they in a porn film or a race?
PMSL Samuri!!!!
😆
Race porn...
Going for the big finish.
Button's already dropped a bollock 🙂
Hamilton!
all that work by hamiltons mechanics
YOU TIT!!!!!
what a tube 😡
Ffs!
I'll rephrase: YOU [i]Parus major[/i]
smart move by webber
Crap. How was Vettel master of that race? How was it a champions drive? Had that second sc not cropped up he'd have been third.
Wish every F1 race was like that....good to watch!
Alonso looks up, and... oh, Vettel just dribbled home.
Anti-climax...

did your super 6th sense tell you that? He put in 54 laps on those tyres and Alonso didn't have a proper attempt at getting past, Button was just sitting in third like a spectator
Hamilton's doing a lot of bullying about. Is he the new MSC?
Come on though - he'd started the drop off the cliff. Well, at least he was peeping over the edge

had he? McLaren were stating he only had a handfull of laps before the drop off, at no point did his lap times drop by 3-4s.

Button was sitting in third waiting for Vettel's tyres to fall apart.
Vettel did what he had to, and a very good job he did of it, but it's hard not to think he was a very lucky boy. Disappointingly we'll never know.
And with plenty laps spare, could afford to watch the pair take each other out, rather than ending up being tangoed if Vettel and Alonso touched
sorry guys, but saying he was just sitting there is nonsense. And what if Vettels tyres didn't fall apart? Or what if they didn't take each other out? He'd still be sitting there in 3rd.
There's nothing lucky about getting 54 good laps out of a set of tyres imo
8 is hardly plentyplenty of laps to spare
Vettels tyres pretty much had fallen apart. Given Alonso's penchant for overtaking, it was fairly inevitable he'd have a go, and at Monaco, probably touch in some way. No point Button getting swept up in such an event, when he had the car to get past both if there was a mistake
