Button made second spot after passing Webber and Alonso on the first lap of the race.
Once again Lewis Hamilton was in the wars when he and Massa collidied while Hamilton tried to overtake Massa. But this time it was Felipe that was handed the punishment of a drive through penalty. The collision caused Hamilton to lose a few places after having to make a pit stop to rectify the damage.
Things got even worse for Massa when he broke his suspension as he took one of the kerbs.
