Safety car sempat keluar akibat benturan antara Adrian Sutil dan Pastor Maldonado. Pembalap Force India itu pun terpaksa tidak bisa melanjutkan lomba, sementara Maldonado dapat bendera hitam-oranye yang mengharuskannya masuk pit.
Rata-rata tim mengaplikasi strategi satu pit stop. Seperti Sebastian Vettel yang melakukannya di lap 28 dari 56 lap lomba. (otosport.co.id)
