Vettel & Button have to pit once again.
Vettel for super softs & Button on softs.

Buttons lead and gap is blown. Vettel has this now.

Like the commentary said, that's what you're always going to say if the stewards are listening, I doubt he really thinks that.

Button going for three stop?

hah, bbc agrees



Button has to pit as well, so no problem there. Alonso actually has a pretty good chance to win now
It certainly throws the race open. Button would not like to have seen the SC, but he's still ok.

Massa looked really clumsy there. He went right, Hamilton stuck his car in there to take the inside, Massa throws the car into Hamilton's.

so f1gaf is devided on if this is good for button or vettel?
It could go either way. it all depends on how well Vettel (And Alonso) keeps their tyres.

This has transformed the race from an easy Button win to an undecided one.

No way this is good for Button. His strategy relied on his lead building up.
Its a straight fight now.
Vettel & Button have to pit again.

We'll see, Vettel doesn't have to stop as he's used both sets of compounds. Who knows if they'll last another 40 laps though.

Button has to stop as he stayed on SS for both pits.

Call me naive then. Ham is a child when it comes to how he expects other drivers around him to act. Waving his hand at Schu was not 'just for the stewards'.

But didn't he yield his lead with a pitstop before the SC accident?
He was behind Vettel after his pitstop and closed the gap during the SC.

Hamilton is surely going to get a drive through, especially after Di Resta doing almost the exact same thing.
I'm not a Hamilton fan, but I don't hate him like a lot of guys here seem to do. That was a really silly move he pulled and I think di Resta's penalty pretty much confirms Lewis will get a drive thru eventually.

That depends. If he can nurse the tires long enough to hold up Button wearing his SSs down. When Button pits to put on the hards, if Vettel holds track pos he can be slow as fuck to the end. Monaco let's you get away with crazy shit cause it's so tough to pass.

If I was Button, I would wait until I get a pit stop gap to Sutil in 4th, pit, and then smash it back using clean air to run to the finish.

Di Resta wasn't whining about the guy he ran into on the radio right after. He gets the penalty though, all is well.
maybe he was :p
we only get a fraction of the radio messages
