Lewis, after his bad start locking up the brakes into Turn 1... already on a "save the tyres" strategy.
Maybe Mercedes had him on a 2-stop the whole time? Will there be the dreaded team orders?

Don't count out Raikkonen! Kimi in the Lotus (position) on the muscle closing on Alonso's Ferrari and Hamilton's Mercedes!

Hulkenberg ran into somebody after changing his nose in the pits. 10 sec penalty.

Lap 52:

Massa and Vettel pit from second and fourth respectively. They both put on a hard tyres. Massa's stop means Raikkonen has been set free to put some pressure on Alonso in the final stint.


I had to take a pit stop to refuel and get my nose adjusted, and am now on the hard compound.

I was in the pit getting my nose adjusted.
