No DRS available while behind the Safety Car
d'Ambrosio will be allowed in the race, even though he was outside the 107%. I think he will be starting from the pit lane.

Just heard that the Safety Car will come in at the end of lap 4
Alonso gets very close to Vettel as the race gets underway for real, but Vettel fends him off

For a last-minute stand-in, I think De La Rosa did well finishing 12th and clocking the 11th fastest 'fastest lap' 
Hahaha: The BBC F1 website gives the winning time as 4:04:39.537 - somewhat confusing, if you didn't know what had happened.

Kobayashi
Petrov
Buemi
Petrov and Buemi have yet to set times
Maldonado's car has stalled on track - off-line though
However, the session has been Red Flagged....with 7:59 to go
Maldonado is P13 at the moment, but as he didn't get back to the pit lane under his own steam he will take no further part in the proceedings, so will probably be lower when the session finally ends
Session starts again and there are 4 cars on track - 5 now as Buemi joins them
Kobayashi runs from P15....now P13
Petrov to P9. So Sutil goes into the zone and Heidfeld's in danger
Schumacher P8 to P6
Petrov now in danger as Heidfeld improves
Sutil to P10 so Petrov down
Di Resta runs, but gets out of shape so is still in Drop zone
