Who?	Points	Action	Lap
Race
Glock, Timo (Virgin Racing)	6 pts	Failure of 5th gear on the outlap to the grid meant retirement. Despite his team putting in the effort to get his car repaired in time, Glock failed to make the grid and had retired before the race had begun.
Hamilton, Lewis (McLaren)	1 pts	Ran wide whilst trying to overtake Webber.	1
Perez, Sergio (Sauber)	2 pts	Ran into the back of a hard braking Maldonado and lost his front wing.	1
Petrov, Vitaly (Renault)	2 pts	Collided with Schumacher on the opening laps. After a tough set of opening laps the field settled down to the race pace. Petrov, seeing his chance, moved in on Schumacher. Schumacher defended which resulted in Petrov losing part of his front wing on the back of the German.	2
Ferrari	5 pts	Ferrari let Massa go from the pits, very close to Hamilton who was passing. Despite not actually being deemed an unsafe pit release it was a very close run affair. Massa ran along side Hamilton before having to yield to the Englishman.	10
Petrov, Vitaly (Renault)	3 pts	Petrov almost pushed his teammate into the pits for an early stop. Running neck and neck through the last corners of lap 12, Petrov and Heidfeld had a bit of an argument. The loser was Heidfeld as, exiting the second to last corner, Petrov shoved him into the pit entrance. Heidfeld recovered to rejoin the track but there was much waving of fists	12
Heidfeld, Nick (Renault)	4 pts	After being pushed off by his teammate, Heidfeld let Petrov know his feelings. Heidfeld was in the right, his clumsy teammate almost made him enter the pits without the need of a stop.	12
Kobayashi, Kamui (Sauber)	1 pts	Kobayashi took to the grass to get past Schumacher. With Schumacher making life hard for everyone behind him, the hard charging Kobayashi used the grass to get around the German. This worked and threw Schumacher into the clutches of Sutil.	16
Sutil, Adrian (Force India)	5 pts	Seeing Kobayashi making his move on Schumacher, Sutil made his move too. The move was somewhat messy, like vultures fighting over the meat, but Kobayashi led the way and Sutil followed past Schumacher.	16
Liuzzi, Vitantonio (Hispania Racing)	1 pts	Went wide and rejoined the track.	18
Rosberg, Nico (Mercedes Grand Prix)	3 pts	Shoved his way past Alonso, banging wheels.	21
Kobayashi, Kamui (Sauber)	3 pts	Shoved his way past Buemi, banging wheels.	24
McLaren	5 pts	A sticky right front wheel delayed Hamilton’s pit stop. To add extra irony, Massa’s arrival in the pits delayed Hamilton further	35
McLaren	5 pts	A sticky left rear wheel delayed Buttonâ€™s pit stop.	40
Schumacher, Michael (Mercedes Grand Prix)	3 pts	Shoved his way past Barrichello, banging wheels.	41
Maldonado, Pastor (Williams)	7 pts	Drive through penalty for speeding in the pit lane.	44
di Resta, Paul (Force India)	5 pts	After exiting the pits on lap 46, Di Resta pulled over with a loose wheel.	46
Massa, Felipe (Ferrari)	5 pts	The right rear wheel change mechanics had trouble changing the wheel on Massa’s Ferrari. Massa did not depress the clutch enough which caused the wheel to spin freely as he kept the revs up. This meant that the mechanics were unable to put the new wheel on the car.	48
Perez, Sergio (Sauber)	3 pts	Shoved his way past Sutil, banging wheels.	57
Qualifying
Kobayashi, Kamui (Sauber)	6 pts	Fuel feed failure at the end of the first lap. The curtailed Kobayashi’s qualifying session relegating him to last on the grid.
Schumacher, Michael (Mercedes Grand Prix)	3 pts	Blocked Hamilton on the beginning of a fast timed lap. Schumacher had just completed a fast timed lap when the hard charging Hamilton caught up with him. Through the “Senna S’s” of the first few corners, Hamilton was forced to slow to avoid Schumacher who was still on the racing line. Schumacher avoided punishment for this incident.
Massa, Felipe (Ferrari)	20 pts	After making a mistake in turn 9, Massa aborted his only timed lap of Q3. Pulling in a deciding to not go out again meant that Massa could save a set of tyres for the race. It also meant that he set no timed lap intentionally as he took 10th place on the grid for Sunday.
Practice
Vettel, Sebastian (Red Bull Racing)	7 pts	Vettel crashed heavily in practice putting him out of the sessions early. Running wide over the painted curbs in the wet, Vettel span onto the inside of the track colliding with the wall. Vettel was unharmed by the incident.
Maldonado, Pastor (Williams)	6 pts	Maldonado crashed into the barriers in turn 8. At the end of the first session, Maldonado span in turn 8 colliding with the barriers. “When we did get out, the speed was there but on the long run I made a mistake and lost the car at the exit of Turn 8 and crashed into the barrier, damaging the front wing. However, I know this circuit and the car has improved so I’ll be up there tomorrow!” said Maldonado.
Kobayashi, Kamui (Sauber)	4 pts	Hydraulic problem.
Kovalainen, Heikki (Team Lotus)	4 pts	DRS problem.
Barrichello, Rubens (Williams)	6 pts	KERS water system failure.
Maldonado, Pastor (Williams)	4 pts	KERS voltage issues.
Alonso, Fernando (Ferrari)	2 pts	Span in practice whilst being too enthusiastic with his DRS.
Schumacher, Michael (Mercedes Grand Prix)	2 pts	Span in the wet in turn 11 (twice).
di Resta, Paul (Force India)	1 pts	Span in the wet in turn 9.
Maldonado, Pastor (Williams)	2 pts	Span in the wet in turn 11 (twice).
Schumacher, Michael (Mercedes Grand Prix)	1 pts	Span after taking to the grass. This was caused by being surprised by an unexpected overtake by a Team Force India up the inside of turn 11.
