Rosberg was also in from 3rd, but fell all the way down to 12th
Judging by how long Vettel was in, it seems they put a lot of fuel in the car; chances are he will do a long 2nd stint

Button resets fast lap, 1:28.020[17]

For the McLaren fans out there, it's not been a good day so far..............
Hamilton 15th
Kovalainen retired, lap 1

Nakajima's out; he's hit the wall(looks like the turn 4 area; he spun and hit the wall)........WTH? where's the safety car?

Bunch of cars went into pitlane....... Bourdais, Buemi, Glock, among others...............


Button pits from the lead...........11-12 seconds of fuel
SAFETY CAR OUT! SAFETY CAR OUT!

With the safety car out, this will bunch up the field.........but why did it take as long as they did to call it?

Looks like everybody's made their first stop.............but the SC will change the complexion of the race, for sure.

They're waving around everyone so that they catch the leader, Button
Top-5 atm........Button, Vettel, Massa, Kubica & Piquet

Quoting the live feed from Yahoo/Eurosport's F1 feed.............

Well, that's pretty embarrassing - Giancarlo Fisichella comes in and misses his pit box! Not his finest hour.

SeaBass pits from 15th

Cars bunched up; waiting for the restart.............

2 cars out at present........Kovalainen, Nakajima

Apparently F1 is playing the NASCAR rule when it comes to the safety car.........why bring it in when we can milk the cautions for every possible moment? Considering that the Dwarf and Sado-Max run F1(or have tried to run it into the ground), it doesn't surprise me...........

Safety car in this lap! Safety car in this lap!

We're back to racing!
Piquet spins off at turn 1 right into the kitty litter...............

While Piquet was demonstrating how to beach a car, Button again got a good start and begins to pull away from Vettel

Glock drops from 11th to 13th as both Hamilton and Alonso pass by
