Just to underline, there is absolutely nothing amusing about David Coulthard's line "He's coming into a wet box, very slippery."

Nothing at all.

Safety car,

Button and Hulkenberg had a 45 second lead on the rest of the field.

It takes 90 seconds to do a lap here!

To be fair, there was so much bodywork on the track it was getting dangerous.

So the safety car will close the field up, and off we go again on a brand new 40-odd lap Grand Prix...

If Vettel continues to win the title, it has to be the luckiest victory since Hamilton in 2008 and Prost in '86. I do not know how his car is still working.

Nah it doesn't look that bad. He'll lose a little bit of aero but nothing serious.
