Ridiculous. Told that a Vettel decision will be another hour at least. Charlie Whiting, race director, has gone for dinner

Yep I just seen this on FIA twitter

Vettel has been found without enough fuel in the car. Hamilton will be given a 23 place grid penalty for starting the trend in Spain

Hamilton awarded penalty for vettel running out of fuel

Can I just say, whilst we wait for these results, Hamilton was mighty today, obviously he is Enemy no1 to the Tifosi, BUT, I have to say, I look at him in quali today and I think, how much of that is the car and how much was the driver? It seemed to me like Hamilton himself may have been the difference today, just a hunch. For me, over a lap, he is clearly the one and would commit murders in a red bull rocketship.

Gary Anderson on it - was just now the only man to grab Christian Horner...CH said fuel issue and we'll find outcome 'shortly'

[banibhusan]

Might be a fuel pressure issue or something!! Will there be a penalty in that case? I guess not!!

#F1 Unusual for a team principal to become involved in such matters which can only mean it's getting serious for Vettel...

Something must be getting serious, looks like Redbull must be putting their hands in their pockets again to get outta trouble...

Told ya, forget any possible 'mechanical issues', 1st thing to check is the fuel load...........

@FakeAlonso - no need to post same things twice.

Hope that it will be a good clarification, not some obscure statements that will allow Vettel to start the race 3rd (because the whole thing is unclear), win it and the bulls to be happy.

That Horner remark v interesting - I was told by insiders a while ago unconfirmed rumours that Vettel did not have enough fuel

To quote Sebastian

''yes baby, yes, yes, that's what I'm talking about... thanks you guys''

According to Autosprint no issues with the alternator, only fuel and engine discussed.
