Vettel's championship lead is 10 points over Alonso.
Red Bull leads Ferrari by 82 points with 86 still available.

great result for Kimi, (disclaimer: yes I know Vettel is fast) but his luck is just sickening.

You still have to question the rules, when a team is penalised, they are able to make adjustments to the car to make the best of the situation.

Other than starting last, where was the penalty?

Hats off to Red Bull and Seb for making the most of it, but the race/ SC fell very favourably for them...

Was a good and well deserved result for Kimi, Alonos put in an excellent race and I have to say that I think Button drove well but achieved the best he could have for the race and whether that was his limitation or the cars I wouldn't say. He wasn't far from the front and I had a feeling Lewis would have succumbed to Kimi at least. Button benefitted from Lewis's demise but came under the auspices of the Vettel luck.

I have never seen anyone benefit as much from SC issues as Vettel does. Except since piquet crashed out to gift Alonso that win.

Vettel drove a blinder <yahoo> which if were any other driver would have shut up the critics but then this is TPL so no change there...

Amazing 8th new winner this season, Kimi finally getting that long overdue win... <clap>

As I understand it, anyone can choose to tinker with their car, the penalty being starting from the pitlane.
