Coulthard is still out and is running the softer compound!

Coulthard rejoins in 13th.

Webber who was 8th has dropped to 10th and Kubica who was 5th has dropped to 9th. Both were lighter than those closest to them

On replay, Glock's stop was long due to a refuelling problem and not a lot of fuel going in!
