If he run on the outside of the corner there is no problem but if he is cutting the corner to make position only then your statement holds.

Same reason Hamilton, Massa and Webber have not had much impact. The whole field is quick so there isn't much opportunity to make up time against the rest of the field.
Hamilton has worked up from something like half a lap down to 16th where as Grosjean hasnt moved

Stella Radio due in 2 laps get ready for the second last update for Alonso.

I think Hirohide Hamashima is looking at his race tyres to give his opinion of what to do next.
If someone said to me that you can have three wishes, my first would have been to get into racing, my second to be in Formula 1, my third to drive for Ferrari.

That is not true. The outer white line is there for a reason, and the rules state that you must keep at least one tyre on the road at any one time. Whiting even cautioned drivers earlier in the weekend for it.

Vettel's just done it again on the last and then first corner.

Alonso complaining possible KERS charge issue, Tyres feel good.

Stella requested: Can you possibly make improvements in Sector 3?

Alonso: Yes but please check the KERS charge for me.

Both?

Would be funny if they both hit their pit limiters...

So disappointing considering Button's form, would have been really good to see both mclarens in there.
