The Italian Grand Prix

:00:00. > :00:21.Previously... Lewis Hamilton! Oh, my goodness!

:00:22. > :01:21.Race number 12, Monza. This is Formula One.

:01:21. > :01:28.Hello and welcome to the Italian Grand Prix. This is the home race of

:01:28. > :01:34.the oldest surviving racing team, the most accessible, and indeed the

:01:34. > :01:39.most glamorous. To make one man's dreams a reality

:01:39. > :01:54.was not easy. But we knew it would be beautiful. Ascari's baby brought

:01:54. > :02:02.to reality. The quest for perfection has never stop. Evolution, not

:02:02. > :02:12.revolution. It's time developing, growing, evolving. -- each time.

:02:12. > :02:18.Success was not always easy. The shapes and designs changed. But the

:02:18. > :02:26.name always stay the same. Historic beauty and speed, always speed.

:02:26. > :02:31.Rising again and again, to the top. Designed and built with passion and

:02:32. > :02:38.love for more than 60 years, this is more than a car. This is a religion

:02:38. > :02:59.for my people. When you finally see the famous red machine, there are no

:02:59. > :03:08.words to describe... Forza Ferrari. Bellissima.

:03:08. > :03:14.It has just started to rain. I know you want the excitement of it

:03:14. > :03:20.all. But I want to see a drive race. -- dry race.

:03:20. > :03:25.David, this is a real racers' circuit.

:03:25. > :03:35.If it rains, we are going to get more excitement looking ahead of the

:03:35. > :03:42.race. 220 mph down into big stocks and chicanes, it is one of the

:03:42. > :03:46.circuits that makes you feel alive. The car can float around. Very

:03:46. > :03:50.impressive. We are going to see qualifying in a

:03:50. > :03:57.minute. It is a way of life here. It is like a sea of red. It is a

:03:57. > :04:01.shrine. People are devoted to the place. You see them going with

:04:01. > :04:08.emblems of the circuit edged out. You rarely see that anywhere else.

:04:08. > :04:11.The history, the passion, the excitement of this place is

:04:11. > :04:16.everywhere to be seen. You can see it in town in the evening.

:04:16. > :04:20.Talk about going crazy, Daniel Ricciardo must be going crazy

:04:20. > :04:26.because finally he has the contract in his hand. He is the real winner

:04:26. > :04:32.this weekend. He can't keep his smile back. He started in a lowly

:04:33. > :04:37.HRT. They promoted him into the Toro Rosso team, and now he is going to

:04:37. > :04:49.be Sebastian Vettel's team-mate next year. A 11 Australia, because they

:04:49. > :04:55.have replaced Mark Webber with Daniel Ricciardo, another icon. -- a

:04:55. > :05:24.double victory for Australia. Monza is the place to be.

:05:24. > :05:32.So, the championship looks like this. Sebastian Vettel arrives with

:05:32. > :05:38.a 46 points gap on the home favourite. Lewis Hamilton, last

:05:38. > :05:48.year's Victor, has 12 points to make up. Red Bull are commanding the

:05:48. > :05:58.table. They have a lead of 77 over Mercedes. 301 point ah available

:05:58. > :06:00.with eight races to go. -- 301 point ah available.

:06:00. > :06:13.Yesterday was very surprising. Lewis Hamilton went off at

:06:13. > :06:19.Parabolica and damaged the car. Next time, he was blocked by Adrian

:06:19. > :06:23.Sutil. That is the worst I have driven for

:06:23. > :06:35.a long time. I am sorry for the team. Did Sutil impede you?Yes.

:06:35. > :06:38.Nothing I can do about it. Ferrari's plans to get a tow for

:06:38. > :06:56.Felipe Massa did not go well. Hulkenberg often struggles to get

:06:56. > :07:06.into the top ten. His best qualifying this season had been

:07:06. > :07:10.nine. So it was a shock to him. Into Q3, I was not thinking about a

:07:10. > :07:16.top three finish. We were fighting for six or seven.

:07:16. > :07:20.Mark Webber got his best ever qualifying in Monza, but it was

:07:20. > :07:24.Vettel who put in a faultless lap and took his fourth pole position of

:07:24. > :07:29.the season. There have been years where we have

:07:29. > :07:36.had a great car but not one that was competitive in downforce races. We

:07:36. > :07:40.have been up and down. This year, it is more up.

:07:40. > :07:44.Red Bull lock at the front row of is more up.

:07:45. > :07:50.the grid. Then Hulkenberg followed by the Ferraris. Daniel Ricciardo

:07:50. > :07:54.was impressive in his Toro Rosso and by the Ferraris. Daniel Ricciardo

:07:54. > :08:04.is seventh. Paris out qualified Jenson Button. -- Perez.

:08:04. > :08:13.Bottas is 18th. That is how the grid lines up. You

:08:13. > :08:16.heard Lewis Hamilton talking their and beating himself up. Was he hard

:08:16. > :08:23.heard Lewis Hamilton talking their on himself?

:08:23. > :08:27.I think he was. He is doing a fantastic job. He has hardly put a

:08:27. > :08:32.foot wrong all year. He was frustrated yesterday because he felt

:08:32. > :08:36.he had a good car. He was not able to use it. He wears his heart on his

:08:36. > :08:41.sleeve, which is endearing. It all came out.

:08:41. > :08:46.First time in ten races you are going to have to do a sprint or a

:08:46. > :08:53.walk. You are not on the front row. We lost time with Nico in the

:08:53. > :08:58.morning. This track is all about confidence with the car. He did a

:08:59. > :09:05.great job with what he managed. We had a problem with Lewis's car. The

:09:05. > :09:08.floor was damaged. Even without the problems, we would not have done

:09:08. > :09:15.much better. Sergio Perez, last year he finished

:09:15. > :09:17.second. Lewis is starting in 12th. Something similar?

:09:17. > :09:25.second. Lewis is starting in 12th. I hope so. People's ability to use

:09:25. > :09:33.the tyres has changed. Lasted, Sauber had an advantage. That has

:09:33. > :09:39.flattened out this year. All of the teams are good at using the tyres.

:09:39. > :09:44.He has got a good car. If we can get through the first few corners where

:09:44. > :09:46.we can see some action. The weather looks as though it may throw some

:09:46. > :09:50.dice in there. All are very changeable! Thank you.

:09:50. > :09:58.The surprise package yesterday was Hulkenberg, who was third.

:09:58. > :10:00.I am here with Hulkenberg. What can you expect today?

:10:00. > :10:08.I am here with Hulkenberg. What can I hope something similar. We are not

:10:08. > :10:14.challenging the Red Bulls and the Ferraris. We have got to be

:10:14. > :10:20.realistic. But we can get points. It would be good to have somebody in

:10:20. > :10:27.front to give you DRS. But even without, we should survive.

:10:27. > :10:32.It might be a wet race. It is starting to spit. The grey clouds

:10:32. > :10:37.have come over the pit lane which has been busy this morning. The

:10:37. > :10:40.latest now from Tom. It has been very busy. The work

:10:40. > :10:44.latest now from Tom. seems to have been going on at the

:10:44. > :10:48.sharp end of the grid. Red Bull happen working on the gearboxes of

:10:48. > :10:53.both cars. They have changed the dog rings on fourth, fifth, sixth and

:10:53. > :10:58.seventh gears. They could prove there was damage to the originals.

:10:58. > :11:03.Ferrari, Felipe Massa has a new engine. McLaren are still working on

:11:03. > :11:08.the fuel system of Jenson Button's car. There is a problem there,

:11:08. > :11:13.diagnosed an hour ago. It is going to be touch and go used to --

:11:13. > :11:28.asteroid he gets to the grid. Keep us informed, Tom. That was

:11:28. > :11:35.today's news. Lescaut backed to yesterday. The Ferrari story. --

:11:35. > :11:38.let's go back to yesterday. It stemmed from the tow that didn't

:11:39. > :11:47.work. We had Alonso on the radio, and this is what we heard.

:11:47. > :11:55.Not happy. There it is translated as geniuses.

:11:55. > :11:59.That is what Ferrari say he said. The Italian press that he called

:11:59. > :12:06.them idiots. Either way, not commensurate. He is the Severus. It

:12:06. > :12:13.was very public. Why did he do that? There could be a couple of

:12:13. > :12:17.explanations. Maybe he knows his team it will be Raikkonen and he is

:12:17. > :12:24.not happy about that. -- his team-mate. Generally, he could be

:12:24. > :12:30.frustrated. Maybe he knows the car is not good enough to win the race

:12:30. > :12:36.or championship. He was being very sarcastic, no matter what he said.

:12:36. > :12:41.If he wasn't a double world champion and driving Ferrari, he could be

:12:41. > :12:49.sacked. It is not the first time he has been reprimanded. We have been

:12:49. > :12:53.told that nobody is as great as the team of Ferrari. It applies to every

:12:53. > :12:58.team. It is not a good life at the moment in Ferrari.

:12:58. > :13:07.Ten minutes later, Alonso was ready for the race and full of joy. The

:13:07. > :13:08.boss of Ferrari, it difficult man to get hold of, but somebody managed to

:13:08. > :13:29.have a chat with him yesterday. I you happy with Ferrari? Yes and

:13:29. > :13:42.no. Yes because we are still on the top. Last year we did well in

:13:42. > :13:47.Brazil. Ferrari is always on the top. I'm not so happy because I want

:13:47. > :13:51.to win. What was the motivation for you

:13:51. > :13:58.saying no driver can ever be as great as Ferrari, the name and the

:13:58. > :14:01.brand? With all of the respect of the

:14:01. > :14:08.drivers, we have got, in our history, the best drivers in the

:14:08. > :14:23.world, Niki Lauda, Michael Schumacher. I think Ferrari remains

:14:23. > :14:29.in the past. Alonso, particularly in the race, is

:14:29. > :14:41.one of the best drivers I have ever seen. Particularly now it is

:14:41. > :14:46.difficult. He is quick and able to read the race.

:14:46. > :14:54.I am reading most of the Italian papers... Don't do it too much!

:14:54. > :15:00.They believe Alonso has too much control. How do you react?

:15:00. > :15:05.It is not correct. When you have a jive alike Alonso, you have to put

:15:05. > :15:11.him in the best condition to win. -- a driver like Alonso. This is

:15:11. > :15:20.racing. We win together, we lose together.

:15:20. > :15:26.And you are open to your drivers? Will you look at other drivers?

:15:26. > :15:32.We have Raikkonen, Hulkenberg, di Resta. I have seen similar names.

:15:32. > :15:38.Now we will think carefully. We don't have a gang here to decide.

:15:38. > :15:45.After Monza, this would be something to decide. Can you win here this

:15:45. > :15:52.weekend? It is possible. The race is always

:15:52. > :15:58.tough. If we win, I think it is very important to go outside Europe and

:15:58. > :16:06.try to win the championship. Thank you for your time. A real pleasure.

:16:06. > :16:12.That was a rare interview from the Ferrari chairman. They said they

:16:12. > :16:19.would decide next week. You feel that it has already been decided? I

:16:19. > :16:25.think it has been. It is probably use for people here that he will

:16:25. > :16:32.make this decision and inform his team on Wednesday or Thursday and

:16:32. > :16:38.hopefully the press will be advised at that stage. It does appear that

:16:38. > :16:42.he is making the decision and time will tell. David, he said the

:16:42. > :16:48.importance of winning this race and moving forward, argue with them in

:16:48. > :16:53.terms of playing up against Red Bull? They have given this timeline

:16:53. > :16:58.as starting putting resources into next year? Huge changes in

:16:58. > :17:02.regulation so if it is a long shot to win this Championship, you let

:17:02. > :17:09.the engineers to develop what they can. But all of your wind tunnel

:17:09. > :17:13.development into next year. We will not be on air next week but we shall

:17:13. > :17:20.keep you informed on the website. We have all of those pieces of content.

:17:20. > :17:29.McLaren, both boys entered the top ten. Any chance? The weather is

:17:29. > :17:33.changing. It rained quite heavily in the context of what we have had a

:17:33. > :17:38.few minutes ago so we do have this damp covering on the track. The

:17:38. > :17:43.person smiling most, despite the fact that he has a problem, will be

:17:43. > :17:46.Jenson Button, who is able to feel these decisions and make good

:17:47. > :17:50.decisions but there will be a number of people dying that grid thinking

:17:50. > :17:57.this is a good opportunity to try to tackle Red Bull. On the straight,

:17:57. > :18:03.Red Bull are quicker than anyone. -- down that grid. This could be

:18:03. > :18:07.interesting for McLaren if they can get that car onto the grid. It would

:18:07. > :18:10.interesting for McLaren if they can be great for McLaren to get onto the

:18:10. > :18:16.podium. This is a very special week for them, celebrating their 50th

:18:16. > :18:24.anniversary and all week they have been doing. In 1953, Bruce McLaren

:18:24. > :18:27.started this and there have been big Rogers and a team of vintage drivers

:18:27. > :18:37.to mark their very illustrious history.

:18:37. > :18:53.Ayrton Senna! Crosses the line. Mika Hakkinen! World champion! That was a

:18:53. > :19:03.magnificent, inspired performance. The world champion. Lewis Hamilton!

:19:03. > :19:11.The cars are here and they look fantastic. Where do they keep those

:19:11. > :19:24.old world champions? Here, of course. But this right. We are

:19:24. > :19:33.putting the old and act together! -- ban back. Look at this. All World

:19:33. > :19:47.Championship winning car is, lots of emotion and here and we shall start

:19:47. > :19:53.here. M23. Do you remember this from your childhood? No!Very simple

:19:53. > :20:01.design when you contrast this and you go to these cars, only 14 years

:20:01. > :20:07.between. But this was dominant. Winning 15 out of 16 races. I always

:20:07. > :20:12.wanted to test this car. I have always wanted to drive this. No

:20:12. > :20:25.disrespect to the others, forced the coin. Tales. You have lost! What do

:20:25. > :20:48.you mean, not there? ! I will let you go first. We have a deal. Go for

:20:48. > :21:04.it! They were brave boys, back then. OK. Good luck! I cannot hear you!It

:21:04. > :21:38.doesn't matter - just enjoy! Oh, my God! This is good.He is on

:21:38. > :21:46.it already. He never loses. Look at the back end, you can see all of

:21:46. > :22:00.those mechanical parts. That is very nice. The gearbox is still good,

:22:00. > :22:18.actually. That is fantastic.This is unbelievable. This thing is a rocket

:22:18. > :22:24.ship. Here it goes! I am sure you had good fun - guaranteed! Mika

:22:24. > :22:33.Hakkinen extends his World Championship lead. Happy memories?

:22:34. > :22:42.You won eight races in that year! In some of those, I was lucky. Really?

:22:42. > :22:48.Anyone's standout? -- any of them standout? This is a 2008 car from

:22:48. > :22:56.Lewis Hamilton and in keeping with the varying levels of talent, I get

:22:56. > :23:02.the modern one, which is faster. And you will have the wet tyres. This is

:23:02. > :23:10.not fair, you always get the modern car. But you know what? I will have

:23:10. > :23:22.it. Engineer, please come here. All right? You know about this one

:23:22. > :23:29.because you were team-mates for seven years. And then be separated.

:23:29. > :23:34.It is never easy, winning the World Championship is never easy. You need

:23:34. > :23:40.to have a very good team that can push you with clever tactics. Great

:23:40. > :23:45.qualities. You had David Coulthard! I had come against. Stop laughing!

:23:45. > :24:21.-- I had David Coulthard! It is just an amazing feeling. This

:24:21. > :24:36.seems so much faster than I remember. I can't feel my neck

:24:36. > :24:47.struggling to handle the force. I want to drive more! This car is much

:24:47. > :24:55.faster than I am able to comprehend. This is it. This is the World

:24:55. > :24:59.Championship car. But it did not, loan, it came with great teamwork

:24:59. > :25:09.and effort from everybody. And also from David. We had our days, of

:25:09. > :25:15.course. But plenty of good times. I am five years out of Formula One and

:25:15. > :25:18.you are even more but you do forget quickly and this is a very good

:25:18. > :25:23.reminder when we talk about it on the television about just how fast

:25:23. > :25:27.and technical these cars are to drive. Congratulations. Thank you

:25:27. > :25:36.very much. We are not done with you yet! It was great but he asked me to

:25:36. > :25:46.come here because it is good stuff. yet! It was great but he asked me to

:25:46. > :25:56.That was great. Until next time! Goodbye! See you soon.The great

:25:56. > :26:04.Mika Hakkinen, just a few minutes ago, Jenson Button was all fixed and

:26:04. > :26:10.is on the grid. David, that piece must have been such a lot of fun? It

:26:10. > :26:14.was because I am a fan of the sport and I grew up watching those cars,

:26:14. > :26:20.project really Ayrton Senna. I was only three years old but to have the

:26:20. > :26:26.opportunity to understand the raw challenge that these boys had, lots

:26:26. > :26:34.of power from a -- lots of power, basic technology. You literally just

:26:34. > :26:38.sat in what was like a bathtub, very difficult to drive without manual

:26:38. > :26:44.gearbox as well so in many ways, those lap times were slower. But the

:26:44. > :26:50.drivers were much more engaged. And physically, you looked very

:26:50. > :26:53.difficult -- different when you are driving but when you talk about the

:26:53. > :27:01.size of your neck, that made a difference? Lewis, his World

:27:01. > :27:03.Championship winning car, that was the fastest I have ever driven. My

:27:03. > :27:12.car was not a winning car but the the fastest I have ever driven. My

:27:12. > :27:14.smoothness of that one. We went out on intermediate tyres, we were just

:27:14. > :27:33.hopping on some slick is -- hopping on intermediate tyres, we were just

:27:33. > :27:39.on some slick tyres. -- popping. We have those conditions here in Monza.

:27:39. > :27:43.And as it continues to drizzle, it is an easier decision and for those

:27:43. > :27:47.who don't normally compete for victory, you will take the gamble

:27:47. > :27:54.and if you have a chap in chip battle on your hands, it is

:27:54. > :28:06.different so it will be interesting. -- Championship. Fernando Alonso,

:28:06. > :28:08.going back and Lewis Hamilton. 1988, you and Mika Hakkinen took McLaren

:28:08. > :28:15.to the Constructors' Championship title. Doesn't mean much? The

:28:15. > :28:22.Constructors' chap in chip? -- Championship. It means more now, you

:28:22. > :28:26.played your part as a team member just like every engineer and

:28:27. > :28:30.designer, they can all lay claim to be part of that World Championship

:28:30. > :28:38.winning team. And as a driver, you want that World Championship

:28:38. > :28:42.alongside your own. And they came up short but it is an amazing team

:28:42. > :28:47.effort, Formula One, and we always focus on the drivers but there are

:28:47. > :28:52.60 people who come and in many cases several hundred people involved in

:28:53. > :28:57.making a winning car for that driver. We can just see shots of

:28:57. > :29:01.Lewis Hamilton in the garage and yesterday he was publicly beating

:29:01. > :29:08.himself up with separately about his mistake on that Parabolica which he

:29:08. > :29:12.felt ruined his qualifying session. When you are in that mindset, what

:29:13. > :29:18.do you have to do to get ready for the race the next day? He will have

:29:18. > :29:24.do you have to do to get ready for had the support of his team, Ross is

:29:24. > :29:29.a very experienced man in Formula One and he knows how to bring

:29:29. > :29:37.drivers back in line. Lewis Hamilton had the best record in qualifying,

:29:37. > :29:41.never out of the top ten. He is peerless when it comes to qualifying

:29:41. > :29:48.and that is why he has been so hard on himself, having felt he did not

:29:48. > :29:51.get onto the pace. It was a bit rubbish, really, in many respects

:29:51. > :29:55.but if you look at the quality he has got hammered this is an

:29:55. > :30:02.opportunity. He is at his best with instinctive racing. You will see

:30:02. > :30:08.Lewis Hamilton going forward this afternoon. He can move forward here,

:30:08. > :30:15.we saw this last year with Perez and we can certainly see this with Lewis

:30:16. > :30:18.Hamilton. They should be rubbing their hands,

:30:18. > :30:24.thinking, we have got an opportunity. This is a historic race

:30:24. > :30:31.venue and he is coming through the field. Where is he going to do it?

:30:31. > :30:35.Is he going to wait for the pit stops? I suspect he will go off the

:30:35. > :30:44.line and sniff out the opportunities right from the lights going out.

:30:44. > :30:46.Do you think it was frustration because he knows how important this

:30:46. > :30:52.race is in terms of the championship? I don't think it is

:30:52. > :30:58.about the championship. They were hoping they could win a race of two.

:30:58. > :31:07.They have supposed that Microsoft passed their expectations. -- they

:31:07. > :31:12.have surpassed expectations. He has taken his experience to Mercedes.

:31:12. > :31:18.Nico and Lewis are strong together. As points stand, he is ahead of Nico

:31:18. > :31:23.in the championship. It is about doing the best you can behind the

:31:23. > :31:28.wheel. He doesn't need to lay himself bare as much as he does

:31:28. > :31:35.about the media. It is looking dry enough, though.

:31:35. > :31:40.It is. A bit patchy in places. They will need to be careful on the

:31:40. > :31:46.curbs. But it is a slick looking start.

:31:46. > :31:51.You always have to have your wits about you. But you are on the portal

:31:51. > :31:57.for, what, three quarters of the track?

:31:57. > :32:01.-- the throttle. There is low downforce here. You

:32:01. > :32:05.have got speed and the car twitching.

:32:05. > :32:09.Talking of twitching, let's see what Eddie has got worse.

:32:09. > :32:20.I thought I had Sebastian Vettel but he is in conversation. This is a

:32:20. > :32:26.tricky situation. These are tense moments. This is the last thing you

:32:26. > :32:34.want as a driver, to be fighting with the conditions. We have just

:32:34. > :32:39.been telling the viewers about the conditions. What was the difference

:32:39. > :32:46.between the slick tyres and the intermediate? Some part of the track

:32:46. > :32:52.is dry and other parts are wet. Were talking about the best choice. It

:32:52. > :32:57.looks like there is not so much rain coming in the nest couple of

:32:57. > :33:05.minutes. So, yeah. The wet stays a while. Is it a thing

:33:05. > :33:12.for you? It is dry there.I don't believe it! First time ever! We wish

:33:12. > :33:17.you the world. What you qualified with was sensational. Let's see if

:33:17. > :33:22.you can turn this into a race win. We go to go and have a word with his

:33:22. > :33:31.team-mate. This is the last race in Europe as a grumpy driver. -- Grand

:33:31. > :33:35.Prix of. He has got all the Australian TV crews and all the

:33:35. > :33:40.supporters. Mark is a real favourite with everybody. He is very

:33:40. > :33:47.amenable. In fact, he is right up side Christian Horner. I will see if

:33:47. > :33:55.I keep well behaved and can get near to him. The paint on the circuit is

:33:55. > :34:06.often the most difficult. It is slippery. We will try to catch Mark

:34:06. > :34:12.for one second. Conditions, what is your feeling?

:34:12. > :34:20.I looked at the slick on the second and third lap. The track looks dry.

:34:20. > :34:25.I think people will go for slicks. You had a strong qualifying. How

:34:25. > :34:32.nice would it be to exit your Grand Prix career in Europe with a win at

:34:32. > :34:36.Monza? It would be a highlight. We have work to do but there is no

:34:36. > :34:43.reason why because put together a tidy Grand Prix. This one would be

:34:43. > :34:52.incredibly special. I'm aiming for the bubbly.

:34:52. > :34:55.I know there are so many people in Australia wishing you luck. You have

:34:56. > :35:02.got a lot in England as well. We have cornered Christian Horner. Is

:35:02. > :35:10.it a tense time for you? What did you tell the drivers? As we know, it

:35:10. > :35:18.is tight down there. I said they should give each other space. No

:35:18. > :35:23.doubt they will. The weather is a factor. It is a long way down to the

:35:23. > :35:28.first turn. We have to be conscious of our guys and the guys behind. As

:35:28. > :35:33.always, the best of luck. We have got a couple of people... We are

:35:33. > :35:39.going to see the sensation of yesterday's qualifying, Nico

:35:39. > :35:46.Hulkenberg. He was amazing. We will try to get close to him. Naturally,

:35:46. > :35:53.we are going to see where he is. A big queue, I understand. I'm going

:35:53. > :36:03.to try and get in here now. My friend is in there. I'm go to see if

:36:03. > :36:16.I can get in between him. We are live?

:36:16. > :36:24.Our friends from RTL. Niki Lauda works for them in a similar job.

:36:24. > :36:32.Fantastic qualifying yesterday. Did you believe that was possible in

:36:32. > :36:37.this car? Two guys are speaking at the same time! Can you repeat? Did

:36:38. > :36:43.you think the speed was in the car? We didn't, really. Even into Q3, we

:36:43. > :36:51.were thinking about six or seventh. To come away with third was a real

:36:51. > :36:59.surprise. Hopefully we'll have good pace today. Thank you. So many

:36:59. > :37:06.dignitaries here, so many people. Above everybody else, in terms of

:37:06. > :37:15.stature, a real giant of the sport. I wrote. Our friends. You are so

:37:15. > :37:21.tall, man! An unbelievable season you have had.

:37:22. > :37:28.To beat the Australians 3-0 was all that we dream about. We go to

:37:28. > :37:35.Australia in six weeks to play them again. We know it will be tougher in

:37:35. > :37:39.Australia. We have got a bit of rest and recuperation in the list couple

:37:39. > :37:43.of weeks, leading into some heavy training.

:37:44. > :37:50.We have seen you so many times at Formula One. What brings you here? I

:37:50. > :37:59.did. It is such a professional sport. I have been a lifelong fan.

:37:59. > :38:04.Red Bull did so well yesterday, which was brilliant. The feeling of

:38:04. > :38:09.being in sports arenas is awesome. There is no better place than Monza.

:38:09. > :38:12.You have made our editor very happy because he is a fanatical cricket

:38:12. > :38:17.fan. We want to thank you for your time. We're going forwards here. We

:38:17. > :38:24.have rock stars, sports stars, people in the music industry. I have

:38:24. > :38:31.an inkling there is one of my favourite people here. He goes back

:38:31. > :38:38.in history. Well, there's one rock and roll star who stands out. Wow, I

:38:38. > :38:51.love those boots! Can we see those boots. Where did you get your name?

:38:51. > :39:02.My ancestors are Italian, so that's why. Is that what brings you to

:39:03. > :39:09.Monza? I brought my wife away.Are you doing any more festivals? We are

:39:09. > :39:13.adjusting the album at the moment. Next year we will have a monster for

:39:13. > :39:22.you. I remember doing a few little things with you. We're not talking

:39:22. > :39:30.about my musical stills -- skills at this stage! Thank you very much.

:39:30. > :39:37.We're going lurking away. Larger-than-life, we have a

:39:37. > :39:41.celebrity here. We have seen the Brazilian end of things. One elder,

:39:41. > :39:52.we see you at lots of Grand Prix. What brings you here? -- Ronaldo. I

:39:52. > :39:57.to be here. Keep coming, we love you. Thank you.

:39:57. > :40:12.We are going to go slightly back. Felipe Massa qualified yesterday,

:40:12. > :40:19.which was a turn up for the books. I am going to do stop you. -- doorstop

:40:19. > :40:24.view. We saw you in Monaco. You are becoming a fan. I am a fan. These

:40:24. > :40:30.guys have embraced me. The wheels becoming a fan. I am a fan. These

:40:30. > :40:41.are the same as my Kit car 30 years ago! It is a fast track. And you are

:40:41. > :40:48.a rock and roll person. How is your band going? We will be in London on

:40:48. > :40:55.tour. OK, Gary, racing! The strategy

:40:55. > :41:07.today. Will people be doing one-stop? Two stops are slower. It

:41:07. > :41:12.puts you in traffic. The top ten cars start with a medium tyre and

:41:12. > :41:18.then go to the hard. From 11 backwards, they can start with what

:41:18. > :41:27.they want. If it rains, they can go directly to wet tyres.

:41:27. > :41:30.In terms of grip, well, we haven't got time to talk about it. Let's

:41:30. > :41:33.look at what it takes to get a perfect lap. We are on board with

:41:33. > :41:47.Sebastian Vettel. Qualifying for the Italian Grand

:41:47. > :41:50.Prix, it is one of the longest serving race tracks on the calendar.

:41:50. > :41:54.Prix, it is one of the longest serving race tracks on the Average

:41:54. > :42:00.speeds of up to 250 kilometres per hour. We join Sebastian Vettel on

:42:00. > :42:06.his way to pole position. He brakes down to the first chicane. Nice and

:42:06. > :42:13.tidy as he aligns the car. Interestingly, choosing not to use

:42:13. > :42:19.his KERS at this part of the lap. This used to be the scene of

:42:19. > :42:24.difficult times for the drivers. Huge braking into the second

:42:24. > :42:32.chicane. A small locked up as he goes through the first apex. A small

:42:32. > :42:40.correction for oversteer as he runs out to 50. You heard the late shift

:42:40. > :42:46.is second gear. He is now on the run down under the old Bridge. That is

:42:46. > :42:54.where the history of this track was made. Beautifully tidy, all the way

:42:54. > :42:58.through. Hardly using any of the circuit on the exit as he now picks

:42:58. > :43:05.the line of least resistance on the run down to Parabolica. Deploying

:43:05. > :43:16.his KERS as he runs down here. He is in a non-DRS You saw the chequered

:43:16. > :43:20.flag there. He was the last man across the line. His 40th pole

:43:20. > :43:30.position. There you have it. Fantastic

:43:30. > :43:37.qualifying by Red Bull. Hello, Eddie. Nice to be back!

:43:38. > :43:42.They have a low downforce setup. If Eddie. Nice to be back!

:43:42. > :43:48.it rains come it will be slippery. As long as the tyres are up to

:43:48. > :43:51.temperature, it will not be too bad. If it rains before the start, it

:43:51. > :43:56.will be dodgy. It is getting warmer. It is a Red

:43:56. > :44:03.Bull lock out on the front row. Can anybody take them on? Only moments

:44:03. > :44:13.until we find out. Welcome to Italy.

:44:14. > :44:22.The quest for perfection is never stopped. Anything can happen.

:44:22. > :45:10.Almost Hayden from view by the trees in one quarter of this park lies the

:45:10. > :45:15.fastest circuit in Formula One. Race 12 out of 19 this year takes place

:45:15. > :45:22.in a venue that has hosted every single Italian Grand Prix except for

:45:22. > :45:27.one since 1950. Today, it concludes the European season, and is a launch

:45:27. > :45:32.pad for the globetrotting third part of the Championship and offers a

:45:33. > :45:37.challenge. For flat-out sections interrupted by two tight chicanes,

:45:38. > :45:49.one swipe -- sweeping bend and some knife edge right-handers. Drag might

:45:49. > :45:54.be further reduced in the DRS own knife edge right-handers. Drag might

:45:54. > :46:01.but for the madly passionate Ferrari fans, the race to the first corner

:46:01. > :46:05.will be key. Fernando Alonso is a knowledge is one of the test on the

:46:05. > :46:08.opening lap but he starts in fifth and to have any chance of

:46:08. > :46:19.challenging Red Bull, he will need every element of his fast starting

:46:19. > :46:22.skills. That is a very good point and you get high speed before

:46:22. > :46:27.approaching the first chicane, 600 metres from pole position and both

:46:27. > :46:32.Randall Alonso and Sebastian Vettel have not lost any positions this

:46:32. > :46:39.season. Sebastian will hope that stays this afternoon. Felipe Massa

:46:39. > :46:43.as I qualified Fernando Alonso despite doing his best to help them.

:46:43. > :46:50.But Lewis Hamilton, his worst qualifying for a very long time. Six

:46:50. > :46:55.races he got through to Q3 but he will still be fighting. Let's look

:46:55. > :47:01.at that grid. Sebastian Vettel, his fourth pole position, alongside Mark

:47:01. > :47:04.Webber. Nico Hulkenberg, an excellent performance, and Felipe

:47:04. > :47:10.Massa, then Fernando Alonso in fifth position, Nico Rosberg, who should

:47:10. > :47:16.be able to make his presence felt. Daniel Ricciardo hummer Sergio

:47:16. > :47:24.Perez, outqualifying his team-mate. And Johnny -- Jean-Eric Vergne

:47:24. > :47:29.followed by Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton, done in 12th position. The

:47:29. > :47:34.other leaders, Grosjean, then Pastor Maldonado and behind him, Paul di

:47:34. > :47:45.Resta, he has good year is next door. Adrian Sutil. -- Gutierrez.

:47:45. > :47:51.Van der Garde is just ahead of Charles Pic and the grid is

:47:51. > :47:58.completed by Jules Bianchi and Max Chilton. This is how those cars will

:47:58. > :48:06.head down to that first corner. Fernando Alonso twice a previous

:48:06. > :48:14.winner in Monza. Significantly, for the fans, he did that again in 2010

:48:14. > :48:17.when driving for Ferrari. Kimi Raikkonen has not quite got the same

:48:17. > :48:21.when driving for Ferrari. Kimi record and has not won at this track

:48:21. > :48:25.but he has had several podium finishes. He was speaking to his

:48:25. > :48:33.engineer asking if it was normal at his steering wheel went light on

:48:33. > :48:40.that parade lap. There could be some small issue, perhaps low-pressure

:48:40. > :48:44.feed. Mark Webber, never has been on the podium at Monza. There has never

:48:44. > :48:54.been an Australian winner of the Italian Grand Prix so despite their

:48:54. > :48:59.great careers, I wonder if Mark Webber will put that to rights?

:48:59. > :49:08.Sebastian Vettel is just driving so brilliantly. Five wins so far, three

:49:08. > :49:11.of the last five. Mark Webber has won more races from second place

:49:11. > :49:19.than pole position. Historically, he has not made good starts. TEAM

:49:19. > :49:22.RADIO: We understand if the compromise on the opening lap, we

:49:22. > :49:32.can go back later on. Kimi Raikkonen compromise on the opening lap, we

:49:32. > :49:42.has also made that choice, harder compound. The rest set their lap

:49:42. > :49:46.time on the softer tyres. Gary, you talked about the weather in

:49:46. > :49:50.changeable meaning that perhaps those outside the top ten would go

:49:50. > :49:57.for those harder tyres but Kimi Raikkonen and Hamilton have gone for

:49:57. > :50:04.it. Grosjean and Maldonado, starting on intermediate tyres. It does not

:50:04. > :50:08.look like it will be very heavy rain today, perhaps a little shower.

:50:08. > :50:13.Normally a one-stop race and the medium tyres are better than last

:50:13. > :50:21.year. You must remember that Perez came from 12th place all the way to

:50:21. > :50:26.second last. The weather is looking reasonably bright? And getting quite

:50:26. > :50:29.hot. We had that cloud hanging over this morning but it could stay dry

:50:29. > :50:34.for quite a while. We are expecting this morning but it could stay dry

:50:34. > :50:38.one stop this afternoon. Do you really see anybody being able to

:50:38. > :50:44.take this battle to read old? Not on a straightforward fight. There is no

:50:44. > :50:54.love lost between these two men. At first corner can suck you in. It can

:50:54. > :50:57.cause problems. Lewis Hamilton in third place after that last grand

:50:57. > :51:00.prix in Belgium, where Kimi Raikkonen suffered his first

:51:00. > :51:08.non-finish since returning to Formula One. Never forget, there are

:51:08. > :51:13.other battles, between Force India and McLaren in the Constructors'

:51:13. > :51:17.Championship, McLaren grabbed fifth place but they are only four points

:51:17. > :51:22.ahead of Force India. And this is new, the thermal camera on board

:51:22. > :51:27.with Paul di Resta and those collars on this front tyres indicate how hot

:51:27. > :51:31.we are getting so you get very little on the straight but into that

:51:31. > :51:37.corner... You can see which ever tyre is more noted, going Orange. If

:51:37. > :51:45.we see that later, remember Paul di Resta, that image was going down

:51:45. > :51:54.towards Variante Ascari. It was black, no heat at all. In the

:51:54. > :52:04.running speed in the race, they will contain that tyre temperature. TEAM

:52:04. > :52:18.RADIO: Remember your procedures. To burn outs. -- two. That was his data

:52:18. > :52:26.engineer. He is just going through procedures. They should know that

:52:26. > :52:30.well. You stick to those procedures. Lewis Hamilton has been told to keep

:52:30. > :52:33.the steering wheel as straight as possible and defend if you have to

:52:34. > :52:38.but keep things straight. Every little piece of resistance creates

:52:38. > :52:46.friction and you lose speed so when trying to get that car plus the

:52:46. > :52:53.weight of fuel on board, that is a lot of weight to try to get off the

:52:53. > :52:55.line. Hulkenberg from third place, Felipe Massa, then Fernando Alonso

:52:55. > :53:14.and Rosberg. Adrian Sutil is further back than he

:53:14. > :53:32.would have liked. Kidron and Marussia, moving into position. --

:53:32. > :53:35.Kidron. -- Caterham. And away we go. And that was a good start, Mark

:53:35. > :53:40.Webber getting away cleanly. Fernando Alonso goes on the attack.

:53:40. > :53:46.Sebastian Vettel leading in the middle, Webber has been passed.

:53:46. > :53:53.There is front wing damage, which car? It looked like Ferrari.One of

:53:54. > :53:59.those McLaren cars, across the kerb. Perez in trouble. Fernando Alonso,

:53:59. > :54:09.still on the attack, I've Inc is weighing looked OK. Sebastian Vettel

:54:09. > :54:17.leaves, then Felipe Massa. -- his front wing looked OK. There was a

:54:17. > :54:23.very visible lock up as he ran into that first corner. Lewis Hamilton in

:54:23. > :54:29.12th place, Grosjean further back. We will keep an eye on that. As they

:54:29. > :54:34.come around on this first lap, everybody jostling for position.

:54:34. > :54:40.Jules Bianchi has made a good start. everybody jostling for position.

:54:40. > :54:48.Paul di Resta is out already. His front wing has gone and damaged

:54:48. > :54:56.releases pension. -- damage to his suspension. Hulkenberg has dropped

:54:56. > :55:05.down to fifth race. And the attack from Kimi Raikkonen but Hamilton can

:55:05. > :55:11.defend. Is he heading to the pits? New front wing. Kimi Raikkonen

:55:11. > :55:17.usually manages to stay out of trouble. You can see the damage.

:55:17. > :55:22.What is going on behind? Felipe Massa holding onto that second

:55:22. > :55:30.place. Grosjean and Adrian Sutil... Some contact with Williams and that

:55:30. > :55:35.is Gutierrez getting involved. That was brave stuff around the outside

:55:35. > :55:42.of that first chicane. He is also under attack and sell. Pastor

:55:42. > :55:52.Maldonado, trying to get anything out of this race. Baldry Bartos,

:55:52. > :56:05.having to watch right, Charles Pic... -- watch out. Maldonado not

:56:05. > :56:19.giving it up. They stop -- structural online to Variante

:56:19. > :56:28.Ascari. -- store to run down. -- start. Webber and Alonso, good

:56:28. > :56:33.rivals and friends. And for the second race in succession, Paul di

:56:33. > :56:43.Resta watches from the sidelines. That is a horrible way to end the

:56:43. > :56:48.race so early. Sebastian Vettel with the fastest lap in the early stages.

:56:48. > :56:53.Mark Webber has got that covered. On board with Fernando Alonso. He can

:56:53. > :56:56.see his team-mate a head of Mark Webber and he can see Sebastian

:56:56. > :57:05.see his team-mate a head of Mark Vettel in front. He comes through.

:57:05. > :57:13.Can he go around? Almost on the grass. He has done it! Fernando

:57:13. > :57:25.Alonso goes around the outside of Mark Webber! That was incredible. I

:57:25. > :57:30.think Mark Webber has sustained damage to his front wing. Let's have

:57:30. > :57:36.a look at that. They did have contact on that corner, did he clip

:57:36. > :57:41.his wing? Fernando Alonso just touching the front wing of Mark

:57:41. > :57:45.Webber. It will be interesting to see what effect that has on his

:57:45. > :57:53.front downforce. Mark Webber might be struggling. We could see Perez

:57:53. > :57:57.going through. TEAM RADIO: Concentrate on the race, this is

:57:57. > :58:04.good. Felipe Massa being talked through. Hamilton is in 10th place.

:58:04. > :58:11.Grosjean in 12th place and then Adrian Sutil. Gutierrez in 14th as

:58:11. > :58:16.they go across the line once more and Sebastian Vettel opening up that

:58:16. > :58:20.advantage. Hamilton in 10th place as a battle continues between red bowl

:58:21. > :58:25.and Ferrari. It is interesting with Hamilton being on those trying

:58:26. > :58:40.tyres. What sort of progress can he make? It is slightly better than the

:58:40. > :58:45.option. Less than a 10th of a lap. We can see Hulkenberg being swamped.

:58:45. > :58:50.And there is visible distance to that first corner and we can see

:58:50. > :58:54.that lock up from Sebastian Vettel and Perez taking that escape road.

:58:55. > :58:59.He just goes across the grass and trying to imagine where he would

:58:59. > :59:03.have been had he gone through that corner normally to avoid that

:59:03. > :59:12.penalty. On board with Kimi Raikkonen. He launched past McLaren

:59:12. > :59:18.and Jenson Button. To the outside. Is it at this point? Locks up. And

:59:18. > :59:25.that is why Perez was like a scuttle. He was rear ended by Kimi

:59:25. > :59:38.Raikkonen. Let us look at what happened. Trying to find his slot.

:59:38. > :59:42.He locks up. You can see the bodywork coming. Hamilton decides

:59:42. > :59:48.not to mix it through the chicane. He did not gain any is Asian. And we

:59:49. > :59:58.have that contact with Grosjean and Paul di Resta. Paul di Resta locked

:59:58. > :00:08.up. Look at that. TEAM RADIO: He just locked the front. Who did he

:00:08. > :00:12.hit? He said he just locked the front so he is admitting a mistake

:00:12. > :00:17.on this occasion. That is very rare from Paul di Resta. But he has put

:00:17. > :00:23.his hand up. Has that done any damage to -- to Grosjean? Kimi

:00:23. > :00:35.Raikkonen is back on the track. He had to stop for that new front wing.

:00:35. > :00:39.He is the fastest car on the track. I doubt he can go all the way to the

:00:39. > :00:46.end of the race. He will have done some laps on the hard tyres. He will

:00:46. > :00:53.go as far as he can, but presumably they will turn it into a two stop

:00:53. > :00:59.race. Vettel leads the race. Felipe Massa dropped back a bit. Hulkenberg

:00:59. > :01:07.is still up there in fifth. For Sauber, it is about scoring a few

:01:07. > :01:17.points today. Rosberg is still in sixth. Ricky Andrew, Perez, and

:01:17. > :01:32.Hamilton intent. -- Ricciardo. You can see him applying pressure to

:01:32. > :01:40.Jean-Eric Vergne. Hamilton was fastest of all in the

:01:41. > :01:50.first sector. TEAM RADIO: Lewis, we cannot hear you.

:01:50. > :02:00.A bit of a problem if they can't communicate with him. I assume they

:02:00. > :02:08.have two switch -- they have to switch. Every time a driver makes an

:02:08. > :02:12.adjustment of the steering wheel, whether it is a differential or an

:02:12. > :02:27.engine mode, it pops up on the tell a tree. -- telemetry.

:02:28. > :02:33.Hamilton has Button behind him. The Brits are on the outskirts of the

:02:33. > :02:40.top ten. They are trying to deal with Jean-Eric Vergne. TEAM RADIO:

:02:40. > :02:50.Pool to the main straight to cool the car.

:02:50. > :02:57.That is right. Let some fresh air and energy pass through the side. --

:02:57. > :03:02.the side paths to cool the radiators.

:03:02. > :03:09.The engineers have told him it is turbulent from other cars. In

:03:09. > :03:15.practice, you don't run around in turbulence. You can see the battle

:03:16. > :03:23.between Boston and Hamilton. Raikkonen has been told to avoid any

:03:23. > :03:32.overlap. Barton is coming back at Hamilton. -- Jenson Button. He set

:03:32. > :03:40.the fastest first sector of anybody. Hamilton is there on the Orange

:03:40. > :03:44.branded tyre. You would think the tension would ease off. But often

:03:44. > :03:53.looks as though he could be quicker than Hamilton. -- but Jenson Button.

:03:53. > :03:59.Hamilton has gained on Jean-Eric Vergne in the last couple of laps.

:04:00. > :04:06.In traffic, with dirty air, some cars are less affected for whatever

:04:06. > :04:10.reason. He has gone wide at Parabolica. That would have allowed

:04:10. > :04:20.Hamilton to get into the slipstream. The Toro Rossos have been quick.

:04:20. > :04:24.Alonso moves on to second place. Ferrari are running second and

:04:25. > :04:34.third. I wish we had a bit more response. Alonso is on the chase of

:04:34. > :04:40.Vettel. Can he do anything about the gap? Look at Hamilton! He has got

:04:40. > :04:42.Vettel. Can he do anything about the past Jean-Eric Vergne. But where is

:04:42. > :04:52.Vettel. Can he do anything about the Jenson Button? Oh, no, Perez. We

:04:52. > :04:56.were getting excited over the wrong battle. Sorry, it was Rosberg we

:04:56. > :05:05.were looking at. Thank you, David. battle. Sorry, it was Rosberg we

:05:05. > :05:16.It is getting confusing. Ricciardo is running with Rosberg. Hamilton

:05:16. > :05:25.goes defensive, to the outside. So he moves up into 10th place. In a

:05:25. > :05:32.way to go in this race. -- a long way. You have got Jean-Eric Vergne,

:05:32. > :05:39.Jenson Button tucked in behind him. And there is a Romain Grosjean, in

:05:39. > :05:54.therefore the fun and games as well. Bianchi and Max Chilton are still

:05:55. > :06:01.running. Raikkonen is last of the track. We have lost one car. That

:06:01. > :06:10.was Paul di Resta. The other Force India missed the chicane, that was

:06:11. > :06:23.Adrian Sutil. Lotus are looking past Grosjean.

:06:23. > :06:31.Hamilton has got a bit of time as he gets on with his battle with Jenson

:06:31. > :06:36.Button. They know it is not good. Once you have got a flat spot, if

:06:36. > :06:41.you had any issues under rotation in the braking zones, it tends to find

:06:41. > :06:45.the flat spot and keep working away at the difficulties you have.

:06:45. > :06:52.Several years ago, Raikkonen's suspension exploded thanks to a flat

:06:52. > :06:56.spot. The level of vibration, you lose visibility when you have a flat

:06:56. > :07:01.spot. Your eyeballs are shaking in your head. That might explain why it

:07:01. > :07:09.Vettel is being kept honest here by Alonso. He is pulling away, but not

:07:09. > :07:12.Vettel is being kept honest here by with the sort of advantage we were

:07:12. > :07:18.expecting when we looked at the practice times.

:07:18. > :07:27.In that lap, he was for my pretences faster than Alonso. -- he

:07:27. > :07:37.In that lap, he was for my was four 10ths.

:07:37. > :07:44.Di Resta and Grosjean, it was Grosjean that he hit in the

:07:44. > :07:53.investigate -- incident. That will be investigated after the race.

:07:53. > :08:03.struggling at the moment. Rosberg is on the other tyre. Will Hamilton

:08:03. > :08:05.struggling at the moment. Rosberg is have to bail from an attempted

:08:05. > :08:12.one-stop onto two stops? If he is have to bail from an attempted

:08:12. > :08:20.losing so much time on this tyre, that is going to become pounded. --

:08:20. > :08:31.be compounded. An interesting situation for Mercedes at the

:08:32. > :08:37.moment. Gutierrez is in 14th in his Sauber. He is on the hard tyre.

:08:37. > :08:43.Vettel continues to go quickly. He has just said another fastest lap.

:08:43. > :08:48.He has opened a bigger advantage over Alonso. The gap is up to 5.2

:08:48. > :08:53.seconds now. I wonder if Red Bull, if they have a problem, might move

:08:53. > :09:02.to two stops. We will have to wait and see. Hamilton did a slow last

:09:02. > :09:06.lap. He just did a 29.4. He has closed in behind the McLaren. He may

:09:06. > :09:14.have been doing a cooling lap, getting some fresh air over the side

:09:14. > :09:20.pods. Riding with Lewis Hamilton as he tries to close the gap to Jenson

:09:20. > :09:29.Button. Button won the race last year. It looked like it could be a

:09:29. > :09:34.McLaren double victory last time. Thankfully, they had a fuel system

:09:34. > :09:41.problem into this race but they were able to fix it. But in's car looks

:09:41. > :09:57.in good shape. -- Jenson Button's car. Look at the lead Vettel has

:09:57. > :10:03.over Alonso. There is Felipe Massa. He still got a decent gap between

:10:03. > :10:10.him and Hulkenberg. Behind Jenson Button is Lewis Hamilton. Grosjean

:10:11. > :10:17.is behind them. You can see the wing on that Mercedes vibrating from side

:10:17. > :10:28.to side. That radio message, typically we get

:10:28. > :10:32.them delayed. For whatever reason, maybe it is the communication issue

:10:32. > :10:39.we had then described earlier, Hamilton didn't pit. He has a slow

:10:39. > :10:44.puncture. I was wondering why they would bring

:10:44. > :10:49.him in so early. That is why. It is not going very well in the race. He

:10:49. > :10:53.started on a hard tyre. It is sliding around a bit in the

:10:53. > :10:57.background. You saw him getting a bit out of shape. He has dropped

:10:57. > :11:03.back from Jenson Button. Is he able to bring the car back to the pits

:11:03. > :11:09.safely? There he is, in the background, still trying to keep

:11:09. > :11:16.Romain Grosjean behind him. I was just mentioning how the rear

:11:16. > :11:27.wing, on the way down to Parabolica, was vibrating side to side on the

:11:27. > :11:34.end plates. Distances presumably being given to

:11:34. > :11:39.Alonso there. We expect to see Lewis Hamilton coming into the pits. The

:11:39. > :11:47.race leader is not heading in. But there is a similar lack lap time

:11:47. > :11:53.from him. -- a similar lap time. I wonder what is going on. Unless they

:11:53. > :12:01.have put a special fluid in that tyre, I don't know how you can

:12:01. > :12:08.correct a slow puncture. TEAM RADIO: Box, box, Pitt confirmed.

:12:08. > :12:13.He cannot hear them. That is the problem. They are waiting for him,

:12:13. > :12:20.he is in the pit lane, and he is doing another lap. Tom, have you

:12:20. > :12:23.heard anything? I haven't heard any more. It is extraordinary to see the

:12:23. > :12:30.Mercedes team around their box. Normally they get the message eight

:12:30. > :12:38.seconds beforehand. They have been out for two minutes. It is

:12:38. > :12:43.extraordinary. They are twiddling their thumbs. The tyres are there in

:12:43. > :12:46.their warmers, waiting. They are going to have to react if they seem

:12:46. > :12:54.coming down the pit lane. Back to the old-fashioned way, with the pit

:12:54. > :12:58.board. People often ask, why do they have a man out there with plastic

:12:58. > :13:09.numbers when they have all this technology? It because exactly when

:13:09. > :13:16.you have this technology failures. In he comes. He has got the

:13:16. > :13:19.message. He will switch from his hard compound tyres to the medium

:13:19. > :13:27.compound. He didn't seems to lose too much.

:13:27. > :13:35.Another message being given there. Not sure what was written on the

:13:35. > :13:39.front of it. On the back it says, no fuel. I suspect that is a message

:13:39. > :13:44.for the mechanics when they are working on the cards. Maybe he has

:13:44. > :13:49.written something on there. I don't know if Tom Court sight of that.

:13:49. > :14:00.Jenson Button is still chasing down Jean-Eric Vergne. The Toro Rosso is

:14:00. > :14:08.fast in a straight line. No denying that Vettel is beginning to make a

:14:08. > :14:18.bit more of a gap. Felipe Massa is still in third. Webber is in fourth

:14:18. > :14:22.position. Grosjean is in 11th. What the other Lotus? Raikkonen had to

:14:22. > :14:38.make an early stop and he is now out there 19th.

:14:38. > :14:50.Radio reset. They will be going for the default. That front wing

:14:50. > :14:51.endplate damage, he is certainly not going as quickly as Sebastian

:14:51. > :15:01.Vettel. He is nine seconds behind going as quickly as Sebastian

:15:01. > :15:08.the leader, losing time, of course, in the air that has been dispelled

:15:08. > :15:12.from the back of the Ferrari. Mark Webber not struggling as much as he

:15:12. > :15:17.might have been doing. Felipe Massa still sending him off. Mark Webber

:15:17. > :15:22.has never been on the podium here at Monza. What a way to finish his last

:15:23. > :15:28.Formula One grand prix at this circuit, if you can get back into

:15:28. > :15:33.the top three. And problems for Jean-Eric Vergne, coasting to the

:15:33. > :15:39.side of the track. And that will have released Jenson Button into

:15:39. > :15:47.10th place. We cannot see the problem, Jenson Button was passing

:15:47. > :15:52.him. Some tell-tale smoke. That looks like engine failure. He turns

:15:52. > :15:58.into the corner and you can see that smoke being blown from the left-hand

:15:58. > :16:05.side. It could be hydraulic, of course. We will find out in time.

:16:05. > :16:13.That was a good weekend so far for Toro Rosso. That brings Grosjean

:16:13. > :16:22.into 10th place. Real disappointment for Jean-Eric Vergne. Whether that

:16:22. > :16:26.is hydraulics or engine, running at 70% full throttle around this

:16:26. > :16:32.circuit so it is tough on the engines. We will have another look

:16:32. > :16:45.at Lewis Hamilton and his pit stop. Let's look at that replay. He brings

:16:45. > :16:51.the car in. Stocks on his marks. That could be the reset signal. What

:16:51. > :16:59.I love is that is his old school, written with a felt tip. I wonder if

:16:59. > :17:02.he picked that up. He was quickly adjusting something on his steering

:17:02. > :17:11.wheel so I think he got the message. Lewis Hamilton has rejoined in 18

:17:11. > :17:15.position. These straights are very long and he could have filled his

:17:15. > :17:20.time between corners. Kimi Raikkonen had to make that early stop so the

:17:20. > :17:27.question is, can Lewis Hamilton get through? It is very early to have to

:17:27. > :17:31.make a stop but they will be monitoring that. Why is his red

:17:31. > :17:35.make a stop but they will be light flashing? It has been doing

:17:35. > :17:41.that since the beginning. That only happens when the driver sets his

:17:41. > :17:56.intermediate setting, it flashes like that. Fernando Alonso, his pace

:17:56. > :18:05.is slower than Sebastian Vettel. 6.5 seconds, the gap. On board with

:18:05. > :18:11.Sebastian Vettel. Let us listen and watch the maestro at work. His front

:18:12. > :18:17.right looks OK, and that is Jean-Eric Vergne with his very

:18:17. > :18:24.expensive race car steaming behind him. That is the fifth time this

:18:24. > :18:29.season he has not finished, he had rear suspension failure last year at

:18:29. > :18:34.the first chicane, he went flying through spectacularly. Meanwhile,

:18:34. > :18:38.Rosberg has been told that through spectacularly. Meanwhile,

:18:38. > :18:46.Hulkenberg is reporting that his rear tyres are beginning to go. That

:18:46. > :18:50.will give him a boost. So that is a chance, perhaps, for the first

:18:50. > :18:56.Mercedes to move up on that young German, Hulkenberg. Sebastian Vettel

:18:56. > :19:03.goes across the line. Another quick lap. Matched by Fernando Alonso but

:19:03. > :19:08.he is a long way further back. That will be registered with the team and

:19:08. > :19:13.if Sebastian is trying to manage a particular issue, that light

:19:13. > :19:18.flashing could indicate he has had to make some adjustment in the cock

:19:18. > :19:22.that. That would only be triggered normally when you change tyres.

:19:22. > :19:27.Because you have a different circumference with wet tyres that

:19:27. > :19:33.raises the car. They will need to reset the tyres and reset all of

:19:33. > :19:37.those distances for all of those electronic sensors. Read will have

:19:37. > :19:46.to make some changes to their gearbox. That was due to some

:19:46. > :19:53.damage. Let us try and track that. Grosjean, getting wide coming out of

:19:53. > :20:02.that second chicane. He continues to keep the pressure on. On board with

:20:02. > :20:09.Felipe Massa. Getting some information, he can try to counter

:20:09. > :20:15.the threat from Mark Webber behind. Mark Webber had a spin on that

:20:15. > :20:19.section last year. We can see Hulkenberg, Rosberg and further

:20:19. > :20:27.back, once again, Ricciardo and Perez. Kimi Raikkonen recently set

:20:27. > :20:31.the fastest lap. He is on a very different strategy to everybody

:20:31. > :20:38.else. Both Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton have had to make much

:20:38. > :20:40.earlier pit stops? Much earlier, two stops is ten seconds slower but

:20:40. > :20:44.there is ten seconds slower but the resulting they can do about that. I

:20:44. > :20:48.cannot see these tyres going for the 38 laps they might need. They have

:20:48. > :20:55.to drive accordingly and commit to that. With Kimi Raikkonen making his

:20:55. > :21:00.stop on the first lap, he has come at in front of Hamilton, who stopped

:21:00. > :21:04.much later. He did not have any of that traffic from the start of the

:21:04. > :21:09.grand prix and losing time to the benefit of being at the front is you

:21:09. > :21:13.run at a run pace whereas Hamilton was running below his pace to work

:21:13. > :21:19.through the traffic so Kimi Raikkonen will have to stop again to

:21:19. > :21:25.make it back. In reality, Kimi Raikkonen has gone on to medium so

:21:25. > :21:32.he can do 52 lap on the faster tyres. He has got the faster

:21:32. > :21:39.opportunity. It is more durable but slower. Kimi Raikkonen is in 15th

:21:39. > :21:44.place with Hamilton behind. Six seconds behind them. We can see

:21:44. > :21:48.Sebastian Vettel, his rear light is flashing, is there any reason why he

:21:48. > :21:55.Sebastian Vettel, his rear light is might have triggered that? Normally

:21:55. > :22:01.what happens is you have a button on the steering wheel to put the car

:22:01. > :22:06.into wet tyres mode. I am confused because he should be on dry tyres.

:22:06. > :22:12.It is strange. That last radio message was Fernando Alonso asking

:22:12. > :22:24.the team, what is going on? Why is his rear light operating like that.

:22:24. > :22:41.--? TEAM RADIO: Push like hill! Hulkenberg being told to push. Just

:22:41. > :22:47.an update as to that message, it said RS modes, just one of those

:22:47. > :22:52.settings. We are talking about strategy. It is worth mentioning

:22:52. > :22:59.that the last thing the teams want is to start trying to do one stop

:22:59. > :23:07.and then aborting because it is that strategy mix-up that cost Red Bull

:23:07. > :23:10.Barcelona. They were trying to do three stops and ended up doing

:23:10. > :23:14.forced up and they dropped behind Ferrari and finished in fourth and

:23:14. > :23:18.fifth place. This is the crucial point. That window is opening for

:23:18. > :23:26.two stops. We would expect the point. That window is opening for

:23:26. > :23:32.one-stop people to be going deeper. We are going to see some pit stops

:23:32. > :23:40.producing. Webber, Felipe Massa, Hulkenberg, Rosberg, then Daniel

:23:40. > :23:47.Ricciardo, chased by Sergio Perez. Grosjean has come into the pits. Let

:23:47. > :23:54.us watch his stop. Battling away with Jenson Button in the early part

:23:54. > :23:59.of this race. Brand-new set of hard tyres and he eventually gets going.

:23:59. > :24:06.That was not the kind of pit stop we normally expect to see. Out the pit

:24:06. > :24:12.lane. That is another valuable chunk of time lost. His qualifying not go

:24:12. > :24:18.well and he had a problem Kimi Raikkonen making contact with Perez

:24:18. > :24:23.at the start of this grand prix. And they have had a relatively slow pit

:24:23. > :24:29.stop. It is looking like this might be a weekend to forget. TEAM RADIO:

:24:29. > :24:41.Grosjean has had a very poor pit stop. Jenson Button will be

:24:41. > :24:43.responding to that. He is 2.2 seconds behind his team-mate, Perez.

:24:43. > :24:48.responding to that. He is 2.2 It will be very close run between

:24:48. > :24:54.McLaren. Felipe Massa is still in third place, backing onto

:24:54. > :25:03.themselves. Neither of them are coming in. And that gap has reduced

:25:03. > :25:13.slightly upfront. TEAM RADIO: Box is this lap. That is a very quick

:25:13. > :25:18.change of plan from McLaren. No doubt, he should be easily out in

:25:18. > :25:28.front of Grosjean. Given his problem. That looks much sweeter.

:25:28. > :25:33.Three seconds. This is right in that one-stop window and Lewis Hamilton

:25:33. > :25:38.Three seconds. This is right in that stopped in lap 23 lustre. Redrawing

:25:38. > :25:43.is just behind Hamilton. His team-mate is a couple of seconds

:25:43. > :25:51.ahead of him. He. On the next lap. He should still be able to 19 his

:25:51. > :26:03.position. He is unreasonably fresh tyres, he has done a Club is on the

:26:03. > :26:08.medium compound. -- done this lap. Ready to come in from seventh place,

:26:08. > :26:16.ready to do battle with Nicole Rosberg and Perez is not far behind.

:26:16. > :26:18.-- Nico Rosberg. The gap between first and second place was about 6.5

:26:18. > :26:27.seconds and that is down to 5.7 so first and second place was about 6.5

:26:27. > :26:30.not a huge change. Fernando Alonso is definitely going quicker than

:26:30. > :26:35.Sebastian Vettel at this point in the race. Sebastian Vettel reaching

:26:35. > :26:38.the end of the usable life on this tyres and Fernando Alonso is coming

:26:38. > :26:47.alive. That is his best lap of the race, so far. Where will Perez come

:26:47. > :26:52.out in relation to his team-mate? Button heading towards Parabolica.

:26:52. > :27:03.He is on his way. Let us see if Toro Rosso have turned things around?

:27:03. > :27:08.Button heading down the straight. Perez is just going to come out in

:27:08. > :27:22.front? No, Jenson Button has gained the advantage. That looked like a

:27:22. > :27:27.very slow stop for Perez. Tom, what did you see? There was a problem

:27:27. > :27:32.with both front tyres. You must remember that is it is very fickle

:27:32. > :27:37.to get the new tyres on these front wheels because the front wing is in

:27:37. > :27:44.the way and both were slow. -- difficult. Sebastian Vettel is

:27:44. > :27:51.coming in and that will put him in with Perez once he has completed

:27:51. > :28:02.this. That will actually put him out in front of Adrian Sutil. Lap 24

:28:02. > :28:06.from 53. And you can see Mark Webber behind Sebastian Vettel. The camera

:28:06. > :28:16.is mounted onto the gantry. Very behind Sebastian Vettel. The camera

:28:16. > :28:25.quick stop for both of them. 2.6 seconds. Add 2.7. That is right down

:28:25. > :28:29.at the bottom end of what is achievable. Mark Webber, out in

:28:29. > :28:33.front of Kimi Raikkonen. Kimi achievable. Mark Webber, out in

:28:33. > :28:38.Raikkonen made that very pit stop in this race. Presumably, he will have

:28:38. > :28:41.to make another and he has squeezed out in front. They will be pleased

:28:41. > :28:47.about that, leading track position over Lotus. That is the visible

:28:47. > :28:54.damage with that overtake by Fernando Alonso. There is no top

:28:54. > :29:09.part to that end plate. Slick work from Red Bull. TEAM RADIO: It is

:29:09. > :29:17.hard to speak German... Speak German. They will have to learn to

:29:17. > :29:24.speak Italian! He stays out. Fernando Alonso is a race leader.

:29:24. > :29:28.Ferrari leads. But will this work-out as we go further into this

:29:28. > :29:35.race? Sebastian Vettel is on fresh tyres and Felipe Massa is into the

:29:35. > :29:39.pits. Another one who has not stopped is Rosberg, who moves into

:29:39. > :29:46.second place. What a different story it is with Mercedes. They can go

:29:46. > :29:51.longer. Hulkenberg also into the pits. He was in fifth position. Let

:29:52. > :29:57.us see where they can come out relative to Red Bull. Mark Webber is

:29:57. > :30:01.going to go past Felipe Massa. Of course, he was battling with him.

:30:01. > :30:07.Kimi Raikkonen behind as well and Hulkenberg locking up. As Valtteri

:30:07. > :30:17.Bottas heads into that first corner. Just in front of Williams. That

:30:17. > :30:27.keeps him just in front. The Ferrari had to react to the pit stop.

:30:27. > :30:36.Crucially, Felipe Massa's stop was slower than Webber.

:30:36. > :30:42.Lewis Hamilton is at the back of this group, trying to get past

:30:42. > :30:49.Bottas. He has not yet made his pit stop. We are waiting to see when he

:30:49. > :30:56.comes in. Alonso and Rosberg, we are still waiting for those two. Here

:30:56. > :31:00.comes Hamilton, trying to come up the inside. He has to back out in

:31:00. > :31:03.the end. You can only go past there if you have a massive speed

:31:03. > :31:13.advantage over the car in front. Now he has got the tone. Will he make

:31:13. > :31:23.the move? Or will he save it? Alonso has stayed out. Vettel has just done

:31:23. > :31:27.a 27.5, so, one second faster. That means that five seconds or so gap

:31:27. > :31:31.that we saw before the start is going to be more than that by the

:31:31. > :31:36.time we see Alonso coming in to change tyres.

:31:36. > :31:42.Hamilton has been given some clear air again. He continues in ninth

:31:43. > :31:50.place. Vettel is the first of those who has stopped. Gutierrez has moved

:31:50. > :31:56.into fourth, having not stopped. Webber is in a good position. Alonso

:31:56. > :32:00.will be ahead of him. We are at half distance in this Grand Prix. Alonso

:32:00. > :32:06.is charging but doesn't seems to have an answer for Sebastian Vettel.

:32:06. > :32:12.Vettel has done a quick lap. He is running in third place on the row,

:32:12. > :32:20.Vettel. The two Marussias are running through. There is Sebastian

:32:20. > :32:25.Vettel. The gap is 17.9 seconds. You lose around 25 seconds from a pit

:32:25. > :32:29.stop here at Monza. We can hear a translation of what

:32:29. > :32:41.was said to Alonso. It is, let's stay calm. Let's do some greens.

:32:41. > :32:45.That means the green sector. The Ferrari team are just trying to calm

:32:45. > :32:49.Fernando Alonso. Rosberg is in the pits at the

:32:49. > :32:53.moment. We will keep an eye on where he comes out in the order. He was

:32:53. > :32:57.battling the likes of Ricciardo earlier. Jenson Button is currently

:32:57. > :33:02.behind Ricciardo. Then Perez is behind both of them. That will be

:33:03. > :33:10.fascinating to see if Rosberg comes out of the middle of the group.

:33:10. > :33:21.Vettel has done a 1: 27.8, a second per lap faster at this stage.

:33:21. > :33:27.Looks like some blistering on the front right tyre. Let's try to get a

:33:27. > :33:32.close up of that. That could be due to the high rolling resistance that

:33:32. > :33:40.they see when approaching 340 calamitous per hour. No surprise to

:33:40. > :33:49.see him coming injuring the flat. -- 340 kilometres per hour.

:33:49. > :33:59.Joining us from the pit wall as Alonso comes in, and no doubt

:33:59. > :34:04.watching as closely as we are, if the team principal of Red Bull,

:34:04. > :34:08.Christian Horner. Your guys put in a tremendous pair of stops. But

:34:08. > :34:17.Ferrari have much you. Both teams performing Briley in the pit lane.

:34:17. > :34:19.-- Ferrari have matched you. Both teams performing brilliantly in the

:34:19. > :34:27.pit lane. A fantastic team performance today.

:34:27. > :34:31.How much do you see this threat from Alonso? He has come out in front of

:34:31. > :34:38.Mark Webber. Do you think Webber has got the pace to get in front of the

:34:38. > :34:42.Ferrari? It is going to be tough to get ahead of the Ferrari. We are

:34:42. > :34:48.going to take the fight to them. Still a long way to go. Any sign of

:34:48. > :34:53.rain coming before the end of this Grand Prix? I hope not! At the

:34:53. > :35:01.moment they are saying no. But it changes quickly. Hopefully it will

:35:01. > :35:06.be all right. And the loss of performance with the

:35:06. > :35:12.damage to the front wing, it is not enough that he will change it? No.

:35:12. > :35:15.We had some damage like this in Montreal. It is not a massive

:35:15. > :35:22.effect. It upsets the balance, but he is still able to do a good pace.

:35:22. > :35:26.Thanks for joining us, Christian. At the moment, Alonso leads the race.

:35:26. > :35:33.Well, he did. Vettel is back in front. Mark Webber is in third

:35:33. > :35:37.place. Despite the damage and he is keeping the pressure on. Raikkonen

:35:37. > :35:44.is in fifth. Hulkenberg Essex. Then you have got the two Mercedes.

:35:44. > :35:54.Rosberg and Hamilton. -- Hulkenberg is sick. TEAM RADIO: Ape podium

:35:54. > :36:00.position chance. Rosberg has gained some positions.

:36:00. > :36:08.Hamilton is going on the attack. The two Mercedes are close to each

:36:08. > :36:14.other. They are just through. TEAM RADIO: Remember, we need to get to

:36:14. > :36:21.the end of this set of tyres. So be sensible.

:36:21. > :36:31.Interesting, the contrast. They started with two different compounds

:36:31. > :36:38.of tyres. The difference is less windy tyres are scrubbed. This

:36:38. > :36:46.afternoon, the message the engineer was giving was fairly clear. They

:36:46. > :36:51.are aiming not to stop again. A podium potential at the end of this

:36:51. > :36:56.race. Nico Hulkenberg is tucked in behind Raikkonen. We expect him to

:36:56. > :37:06.have to make another stop at some point. We think he will have to stop

:37:06. > :37:16.again at some point in order to get to the end of this Grand Prix. He

:37:16. > :37:22.has done four lapse on that tyre. Kimi Raikkonen has not on 27 on his

:37:23. > :37:24.medium compound tyre. They are well past their best. -- Kimi Raikkonen

:37:24. > :37:32.has now done 27. past their best. -- Kimi Raikkonen

:37:32. > :37:39.The information the teams had with suggest the medium had a life

:37:39. > :37:44.expectancy of 25 laps. That information usually gets better

:37:44. > :37:48.during a Grand Prix. It is cooler now that it was during practice.

:37:48. > :37:56.More rubber is on the track. As you go into the Grand Prix, you are

:37:56. > :38:02.burning 2.5 kilos of fuel per lap. The predictions are always on, based

:38:02. > :38:06.on information you had at the time. As the weekend goes on, it improves.

:38:06. > :38:13.On board with Nico Hulkenberg here as he chases Kimi Raikkonen. TEAM

:38:14. > :38:15.RADIO: Lewis is quicker than the cars in front. You can use him if

:38:15. > :38:18.RADIO: Lewis is quicker than the you want.

:38:18. > :38:25.They are all trying to use tactics a bit here. Rosberg tried to use the

:38:25. > :38:30.tone from the drivers ahead. -- the tone.

:38:30. > :38:42.They will go for the softer tyre again. He is pushing.He knew he was

:38:42. > :38:49.coming in. Here comes Kimi Raikkonen. Where will this bring him

:38:49. > :38:51.coming in. Here comes Kimi back out? That is going to be

:38:51. > :39:00.coming in. Here comes Kimi interesting to see. Hamilton has

:39:00. > :39:04.just set the fastest lap again. They momentary delay to move the car

:39:04. > :39:10.away. That has cost him a second game. A stationary stop as we can

:39:10. > :39:19.see Hamilton is tucked in behind Hulkenberg. Sauber 's defensive into

:39:19. > :39:29.the shower came -- Sauber goes defensive into the chicane. We do

:39:29. > :39:36.think that Hamilton is going to have to do another stop in this race.

:39:36. > :39:45.Let's just see what happens. Looking at the use of the KERS, Hamilton is

:39:45. > :39:51.in the DRS zone. Gary, Kimi Raikkonen had to make the second

:39:51. > :39:57.stop, which we knew he would have to do. How far do we think we can get

:39:57. > :39:59.on those tyres? GARY ANDERSON: He is go to have to do the rest of the

:39:59. > :40:10.race. Hamilton is committed to doing go to have to do the rest of the

:40:10. > :40:13.the best job he can. He has come out in front of

:40:13. > :40:20.Maldonado. Lewis Hamilton is now trying to pick up. He has got the

:40:20. > :40:26.DRS in operation. Is he going to be close enough into the first turn? He

:40:26. > :40:31.is thinking about it. Hulkenberg... He has gone wide and Hamilton has a

:40:31. > :40:35.chance to cut back on the exit. They are having a big battle. It reminds

:40:35. > :40:40.us of Brazil last year when Hulkenberg was leading the Grand

:40:40. > :40:51.Prix. Hulkenberg was slow out of the chicane.

:40:51. > :40:56.Nico is running a good race. Just going back to the leaders' pit

:40:56. > :41:07.stops. Vettel pitted and then Ferrari brought Felipe Massa into

:41:07. > :41:12.the pits. It is a strange thing for Ferrari to do.

:41:12. > :41:16.We will have to look at that one later on. That was the past that

:41:16. > :41:23.Hamilton made on Hulkenberg. It puts him into fifth place. He has done

:41:23. > :41:29.some 18 laps on these medium compound tyres. We are on lap 33

:41:29. > :41:46.note -- now come out of 53. Grosjean is in 11th. Gutierrez is

:41:46. > :41:53.being urged to be quicker through the scurry chicane. An insider was

:41:53. > :42:02.telling me that Gutierrez was, if anything, from practice, quicker

:42:02. > :42:09.than Hulkenberg. He is being urged to be quicker in that section of the

:42:09. > :42:14.track. An interesting battle here between

:42:14. > :42:18.the McLaren drivers. We have seen that a couple of times this year.

:42:18. > :42:27.Perez, when he was striving for Sauber, he will do his utmost to get

:42:27. > :42:36.past Jenson Button. Let's hope they keep it clean. TEAM RADIO: Be aware,

:42:36. > :42:47.Lewis took over Hulkenberg by using full KERS. That explains how rapid

:42:47. > :42:54.Hamilton was out of the chicane. That is one of the things that makes

:42:54. > :43:02.it to GDP interesting. Lewis decided to deploy all 80 horsepower. -- that

:43:03. > :43:17.makes it so interesting. He have to make a decision. -- he had to. Lewis

:43:17. > :43:24.went for gold. It just came in. Upfront, Sebastian Vettel leads the

:43:24. > :43:30.race. The gap between him and Alonzo is 11.1 seconds. Vettel has a

:43:30. > :43:36.comfortable margin at this stage. It is over ten seconds. Webber is still

:43:36. > :43:41.in third place, a second behind Alonso. It is Red Bull first and

:43:41. > :43:44.third, sandwiching the Ferrari of Alonso, then the other Ferrari

:43:44. > :43:49.Felipe Massa. Hamilton is up to fifth. But we think he is due

:43:49. > :43:58.another pit stop to get to the end of the race.

:43:58. > :44:07.Almost identical times there. TEAM RADIO: Last lap, perfectly on

:44:07. > :44:13.target. 20 laps to go, Nico. Button was out of shape there. They

:44:13. > :44:25.are being hunted down a bit by Grosjean. Looking at Alonzo and

:44:25. > :44:38.Webber, Webber is not quite in the DRS zone. Once weather is in the --

:44:38. > :44:40.once Webber is in that window, if he can get within a second, he will

:44:40. > :44:56.gain three off four tense per lap. Hulkenberg has been told not to

:44:56. > :45:06.worry about Hamilton but he has two worry about Rosberg and he is

:45:06. > :45:11.catching very quickly. Upfront, you can see that Alonso is lapping as

:45:11. > :45:16.quickly if not more quickly than Sebastian Vettel but he is a long

:45:16. > :45:23.way behind and I very much doubt that Sebastian Vettel will allow

:45:23. > :45:30.that gap to reduce significantly. Marussia, getting out of shape. He

:45:30. > :45:35.said his tyres were still at stage one, indicating they are under

:45:35. > :45:41.control. No concerns on this particular set of tyres. Will

:45:41. > :45:49.Rosberg size this up? Chasing after Hulkenberg. Sauber, with that

:45:49. > :45:54.Ferrari engine, there were five Ferrari powered car is in the top

:45:55. > :45:57.ten after qualifying and we would have expected Mercedes to be very

:45:57. > :46:03.ten after qualifying and we would strong at Monza, great record in the

:46:03. > :46:07.past. It does not look as though it will be happening for them this

:46:07. > :46:13.weekend. Ahead of them, Lewis Hamilton bearing down on Max Chilton

:46:13. > :46:22.and then Jules Bianchi, Charles Pic is still... Rosberg goes straight

:46:22. > :46:29.down the escape road and rejoins! And he has lost a huge amount of

:46:29. > :46:38.ground. Hamilton? No, Rosberg. Yellow gloves. He has gone past Max

:46:38. > :46:40.Chilton and Hulkenberg, relief for him after that mistake from Rosberg.

:46:40. > :46:47.When he had that lock up early on, him after that mistake from Rosberg.

:46:47. > :46:54.he did not want to risk that. On-board, through the first Curva di

:46:54. > :47:02.Lesmos. Just that quick shot of that youngster being touted as a driver

:47:02. > :47:07.for Sauber next. 18 years old when he starts, if it happens, but he

:47:07. > :47:13.will have to get his licence to make that happen. Gutierrez, being urged

:47:13. > :47:19.to make some progress and Ricciardo is not far up the road. Gutierrez

:47:19. > :47:23.has the sixth fastest lap so far and the other Sauber driver doing a good

:47:23. > :47:27.job and that rookie has not scored any points this year. Is there any

:47:27. > :47:34.chance of squeezing into the top ten? That is a tall order. Mercedes

:47:34. > :47:38.get ready for Hamilton. Rosberg is on that conventional one-stop

:47:38. > :47:44.strategy but Hamilton is heading into the pits. Hulkenberg gets

:47:44. > :47:48.between. They are getting ready for him and he did not, and they have to

:47:48. > :47:56.head back into the pits. It might have been to force a stop. It is

:47:56. > :47:59.probably that radio problem, he was not looking at the pit board? You

:47:59. > :48:06.are always looking at the pits would, that is the fail-safe if

:48:06. > :48:11.anything else goes wrong. That is one of those long straights. They

:48:11. > :48:20.can occasionally come out and tried to force the hand of their

:48:20. > :48:24.competitors. They might have been trying to scare Ferrari into some

:48:24. > :48:31.reaction. Perez still chasing after Jenson Button but Romain Grosjean

:48:31. > :48:38.was also catching so Lotus has got closer to the back of that group.

:48:38. > :48:47.Adrian Sutil in 13th place, then Kimi Raikkonen. Maldonado is if team

:48:47. > :48:54.and then but we put us, Van der Garde, Jules Bianchi and Max

:48:54. > :49:02.Chilton. TEAM RADIO: Box, box, confirm. They hope that system has

:49:02. > :49:12.worked but it does not seem to be effective. He has gone past again so

:49:12. > :49:18.Hamilton, once again... With the lack of radio communication, that is

:49:18. > :49:22.his clear message. Grosjean down the inside of Perez! Perez only just

:49:22. > :49:27.his clear message. Grosjean down the giving things up at the last moment.

:49:27. > :49:33.He tried to run side-by-side but that was a great, tidy pass. He is

:49:33. > :49:37.He tried to run side-by-side but moving up just a little bit, into

:49:37. > :49:45.10th position. TEAM RADIO: Traffic ahead, Chilton and Jules Bianchi,

:49:45. > :49:50.there could be an opportunity. Jenson Button is very close to the

:49:50. > :50:03.back of Daniel Ricciardo. Lewis Hamilton, he has not responded to

:50:04. > :50:19.that hit board. -- hit. -- pit board. Perez was getting his DRS

:50:19. > :50:26.activation. That was a good pass. Grosjean, into the top ten as this

:50:26. > :50:32.race continues. Lap 39. The lead is still 11 seconds for Sebastian

:50:32. > :50:38.Vettel. Hamilton comes in. Where will this bring him back at? And

:50:38. > :50:46.what kind of battle will he have in the remainder of this race? That was

:50:46. > :50:51.a good stop. 3.2 seconds, not the best we have seen. Ferrari and Red

:50:51. > :50:57.Bull have been stronger. Behind Kimi Raikkonen. He will have to do that

:50:57. > :51:03.all again. Kimi Raikkonen has that amazing record, finishing so many

:51:03. > :51:06.races in the points but it will be difficult this afternoon, in 14th,

:51:06. > :51:11.races in the points but it will be but still a reasonable distance to

:51:11. > :51:21.go. They both have been forced into two stops. One-stop was quicker.

:51:21. > :51:27.Mark Webber has pulled up to the back of Fernando Alonso, sitting in

:51:27. > :51:41.that gap of about 1.2 seconds and he is closer. He is in the Di Resta

:51:41. > :51:46.own. -- DRS zone. TEAM RADIO: People have been doing 27 laps on these

:51:46. > :51:53.tyres, no problem. Sticking with one stop. Fernando Alonso gets a very

:51:53. > :51:59.good drive off Parabolica and you can clearly see the rear wing, DRS

:51:59. > :52:09.is open. Opening and closing like a letterbox. Gets in behind Fernando

:52:09. > :52:16.Alonso. Will that we close enough? Too far back. Strategically, he can

:52:16. > :52:25.use his KERS. He might have a little late dive but he would be brave to

:52:25. > :52:32.do that with Alonso. They are both equally experienced in Formula One.

:52:32. > :52:39.Fernando Alonso squeezed him off on that first chicane. They are both as

:52:39. > :52:46.hard as nails, no doubt about that. Kimi Raikkonen has just said the

:52:46. > :52:50.fastest lap, in 13th position. Trying to climb up the order. Kimi

:52:50. > :52:58.Raikkonen is behind Adrian Sutil, then three seconds before

:52:58. > :53:02.Gutierrez. Kimi Raikkonen will be charging for the remainder of this

:53:02. > :53:07.race, as will Hamilton, who is 2.5 seconds behind Kimi Raikkonen as

:53:07. > :53:14.they tried to get into the top ten. Rosberg is tucked behind Hulkenberg.

:53:14. > :53:20.He made that mistake and that dropped him seven seconds behind

:53:20. > :53:21.Sauber. Hulkenberg against Rosberg for fifth position is still very

:53:21. > :53:25.much on. Hulkenberg would love to for fifth position is still very

:53:25. > :53:34.finish there, that would be their first -- best position of the

:53:34. > :53:44.season. Vettel, Alonso and Webber, all on hard tyres. TEAM RADIO: We

:53:44. > :53:48.have an issue. We need to shift onto low gears. Why does this always

:53:48. > :53:55.have an issue. We need to shift onto happen to Mark Webber? Something...

:53:55. > :54:00.Let me get my brain into racing happen to Mark Webber? Something...

:54:00. > :54:11.driver mode! What is unique about that exit? There is no real big use

:54:11. > :54:18.of KERS, there. They have to keep the same ratio before going into the

:54:18. > :54:24.race. Everything looking OK through Variante Ascari. And towards

:54:24. > :54:36.Parabolica, that is a problem, he has to amend this technique to look

:54:36. > :54:44.after the car. Van der Garde. Both Caterham cars. They were not ready

:54:44. > :54:57.for him. That cost him some time. They looked like it had been

:54:57. > :55:03.triggered by him not figuring out where his pit was. Mark will be

:55:03. > :55:13.dying in first gear at the chicane, they want that short shift. -- down.

:55:13. > :55:18.If you are in second gear, the gearbox is selecting third so you

:55:18. > :55:31.have to make that your selection so that you don't have any drop in

:55:31. > :55:38.talk. -- torgue. TEAM RADIO: Keep it clean, keep it clean. And in the

:55:38. > :55:45.background, Ferrari. Tom? This is two stops. The leaders would be

:55:45. > :55:49.stopping night, but Pirelli tell me that one-stop will be OK, they have

:55:52. > :55:56.told me that they have looked at and that is due to this track

:55:56. > :56:03.temperature being about 10 degrees cooler than on Friday, when they did

:56:03. > :56:17.this in relation run. It looks like a clean run to the end for the men

:56:17. > :56:23.in front. -- solution. -- simulation. Gutierrez was in the

:56:23. > :56:29.middle of that group, battling with Adrian Sutil. Adrian Sutil manages

:56:29. > :56:34.to stay in front of Sauber and then he was busy trying to defend from

:56:34. > :56:39.Kimi Raikkonen, who was able to go through. Into 12th place as a result

:56:39. > :56:43.of that. Everybody almost tripping over each other. Kimi Raikkonen

:56:43. > :56:55.might well get points this afternoon. Three seconds behind. And

:56:56. > :57:05.watch Hamilton. There is Lewis Hamilton, trying to get past

:57:05. > :57:13.Gutierrez. TEAM RADIO: Short shift. Still problems or Mark Webber with

:57:13. > :57:19.his gearbox. This is very much for position, Hamilton having made two

:57:19. > :57:24.stops, as has Kimi Raikkonen, both charging through the field and

:57:24. > :57:31.Hamilton on fresh tyres, even more so than Kimi Raikkonen. Lewis

:57:31. > :57:33.Hamilton has the freshest. He has an opportunity for some overtaking

:57:33. > :57:39.manoeuvres and there is no better man when he is in this mood. And

:57:39. > :57:43.there is no more conscientious driver than Kimi Raikkonen, asking

:57:43. > :57:53.if it was OK the way that he past Gutierrez. TEAM RADIO: Short shift

:57:53. > :58:00.only on red lights, five and six. Mark Webber is getting that message

:58:00. > :58:06.from second and third. Second chicane as well. They can get away

:58:06. > :58:13.with running third through the second of the Curva di Lesmos. Kimi

:58:13. > :58:19.Raikkonen has gone ahead of them. Side-by-side, Adrian Sutil keeps in

:58:19. > :58:27.behind. And Hamilton has got last Kimi Raikkonen. His KERS use has

:58:27. > :58:32.dropped away through that apex. They switch it off leaving that turn.

:58:32. > :58:37.Here is the replay. He has to make the choice. He decides to go left

:58:37. > :58:48.and carries that overspeed. Very straightforward. We can see Dani

:58:48. > :58:58.Pedrosa. MotoGP rider. He obviously approves. Hamilton catching Kimi

:58:58. > :59:01.Raikkonen. Hamilton on fresh tyres catching Kimi Raikkonen as we get

:59:01. > :59:06.into the final eight lap of this catching Kimi Raikkonen as we get

:59:07. > :59:12.Italian Grand Prix. And they might not be fighting for the win because

:59:12. > :59:21.Sebastian Vettel has got a very big advantage. 11.5 seconds Rumford and

:59:21. > :59:29.Alonso. -- 11.5 seconds from Fernando Alonso. And he takes Adrian

:59:29. > :59:36.Sutil at Parabolica. Lewis Hamilton will try to do exactly the same with

:59:36. > :59:42.DRS. Grosjean! Getting past Jenson Button! The other looked as is going

:59:42. > :59:49.to place. Can Hamilton get past Adrian Sutil? Adrian Sutil defending

:59:49. > :59:54.as he can. He impeded Hamilton in qualifying yesterday. They used to

:59:54. > :00:02.be friends! That is quite a tussle. Will there be enough space? He gets

:00:02. > :00:09.around the outside. And in the end, well, not that much resistance.

:00:09. > :00:14.Great action, here. We always see great racing on this circuit. Adrian

:00:14. > :00:24.Sutil has to give it up. He had a great result in 2009.

:00:24. > :00:29.If they finish where they are now, Vettel would of course open his lead

:00:29. > :00:41.in the championship. TEAM RADIO: We need to short shift to dear three to

:00:41. > :00:47.finish the race. -- third gear. How easy is it for him? He wants the

:00:47. > :00:53.second place from Alonso. But he has got to be patient. Let's listen. He

:00:53. > :01:02.is listening to the message. He wants to finish. You can see it

:01:02. > :01:06.costs you acceleration. Painful, painful for Mark Webber. He has a

:01:06. > :01:10.chance of finishing second in his last ever it had in Grand Prix. To

:01:10. > :01:18.be on the podium would be very special. -- last ever it has yet

:01:18. > :01:27.Grand Prix. A few drivers are having KERS problems.

:01:27. > :01:34.We know that Raikkonen has been nursing a fuel issue. He has been

:01:34. > :01:39.told not to overlap his throttle and break early in the race. He has been

:01:39. > :01:42.getting several messages saying they are over target, which means they

:01:42. > :01:54.would have enough you will to finish at full power. -- enough fuel. They

:01:54. > :02:01.have not been able to use the full performance from the car.

:02:01. > :02:04.Both of them are a second or so quicker than the cars ahead of them.

:02:04. > :02:15.They could get into the points here today. Webber crosses the line.

:02:15. > :02:19.It is really starting to drag on the circuit. I'd been noticed that

:02:19. > :02:31.earlier. The damage is getting worse as the load pushed down through the

:02:31. > :02:38.front wing. Webber could end up in a Ferrari

:02:38. > :02:48.sandwich. There is normally a bit of salami in a Ferrari sandwich!

:02:48. > :02:56.They do have a KERS problem. Raikkonen just managed to defend

:02:56. > :03:01.from Lewis Hamilton there. You can see the KERS indicator on the

:03:01. > :03:08.graphic. Not much is happening on Raikkonen's car, but stuff is

:03:09. > :03:17.happening on Hamilton's car. What is that, about 10% of KERS available.

:03:17. > :03:32.Hamilton has just under 50% KERS. He uses eight used. -- a boost. It can

:03:32. > :03:37.only be a matter of time. Raikkonen has got Perez just in front of him.

:03:37. > :03:44.Both McLaren cars are in the top ten. We are getting into the latter

:03:44. > :03:54.stages of the race. Raikkonen, it appears, has got a KERS problem.

:03:54. > :04:00.Hamilton has used the last of his KERS. He will get DRS as he goes

:04:00. > :04:06.across the line. He goes to the inside. Hamilton is on the outside

:04:06. > :04:13.with additional speed! Very late on the brakes, and, oh, just get out of

:04:13. > :04:22.it and Raikkonen stays in front of Hamilton. He knows that resistance

:04:22. > :04:26.is futile. If he has a KERS issue, it is only a matter of time. Great

:04:26. > :04:35.that he is taking it as far as he can with Hamilton. They just lost a

:04:35. > :04:45.bit of time compared to what they had been doing. Grosjean just read a

:04:45. > :04:54.bit wide. He is bearing down on Ricciardo four sevenths. There could

:04:54. > :05:02.be another change to go. Vettel leads. Hulkenberg in fifth. We are

:05:03. > :05:14.concentrating on the lower end of the top ten. That is where it is all

:05:14. > :05:16.happening. TEAM RADIO: Come on, boy. Felipe Massa still being given that

:05:16. > :05:25.happening. TEAM RADIO: Come on, boy. encouragement by his engineer. An

:05:25. > :05:35.opportunity for Hamilton in the background. Perez is having a go at

:05:35. > :05:42.his own team-mate. Raikkonen is with Hamilton. He still can't quite do

:05:42. > :05:49.it. Has Hamilton got some KERS left? He sweeps around the outside!

:05:49. > :05:52.He works and is beautifully. He saved his KERS, as he did earlier

:05:52. > :05:56.He works and is beautifully. He the race. Surely that is how he got

:05:56. > :06:04.past Kimi Raikkonen. Now he's chasing the McLarens.

:06:04. > :06:08.He will cause some mischief among them. You can see they are right in

:06:08. > :06:19.front of him. Raikkonen goes to the inside. Perez did not look like that

:06:19. > :06:28.was a proper attempt. You saw a lock up. It affects the angle he can

:06:28. > :06:32.leave. Hamilton gets through before the tight part. A round of applause

:06:32. > :06:34.indeed. It has been such a clean battle, so

:06:34. > :06:47.enjoyable to watch. Some great It has been such a clean battle, so

:06:47. > :06:54.battles out there this afternoon. He will get DRS now. He is on it.

:06:54. > :06:59.Hamilton draws alongside the McLaren. This is to get into the

:06:59. > :07:05.points... It has not been ideal. He is down the inside. A bit of traffic

:07:05. > :07:11.ahead. He just managed to squeeze past and no Hamilton will go chasing

:07:11. > :07:15.after Jenson Button. -- now Hamilton. They just got out of the

:07:15. > :07:31.way sufficiently. Bianchi and Max Chilton are still

:07:31. > :07:36.running at the lower end of the order. It looks like neither of the

:07:36. > :07:55.Williams are going to be in the points. Webber is only 0.8 seconds

:07:55. > :07:57.behind Alonso. I wonder whether Alonso could actually help his

:07:57. > :08:08.team-mate, Felipe Massa. He is getting pressure. If he can allow

:08:08. > :08:19.Felipe Massa to get closer, they can get two from Rorys on the podium

:08:19. > :08:24.this afternoon. -- two Ferraris. McLaren against Mercedes. He goes to

:08:24. > :08:30.the inside. Jenson Button doesn't even try to defend on the inside. It

:08:30. > :08:35.is straightforward for Lewis Hamilton. He has gained another

:08:35. > :08:38.position. He is up into ninth position. Still were McLaren in the

:08:38. > :08:48.points. Raikkonen isn't too far behind. Button didn't have the

:08:48. > :08:54.benefit of anybody in front to open behind. Button didn't have the

:08:54. > :08:58.his DRS, which is why he didn't defend on the first part of the

:08:58. > :09:02.straight. The momentum the Mercedes had meant there was nothing Jenson

:09:02. > :09:13.Button could do. It looks like it is going to be difficult for Felipe

:09:13. > :09:18.Massa now. The couple of Ferraris on the podium is starting to look

:09:18. > :09:21.pickled. It is looking like a walk in the park for Vettel. -- starting

:09:21. > :09:36.to look difficult. That is close for second. Felipe

:09:36. > :09:43.Massa is 2.1 seconds behind. There is Raikkonen going past Perez. He

:09:43. > :09:48.needs to try to get past the other McLaren. Oh, this is going to be

:09:48. > :09:53.hard for McLaren if they lose any chance of a point at the end. He has

:09:53. > :09:56.got DRS but he might be too far away to get a double move and make

:09:56. > :10:01.got DRS but he might be too far away Hamilton as well.

:10:01. > :10:05.So much faster than Grosjean in front. Well over a second and a half

:10:05. > :10:13.faster. Look at Perez coming back on front. Well over a second and a half

:10:13. > :10:18.Raikkonen. He goes to what will be the outside as they come to the

:10:18. > :10:22.chicane. They go side-by-side. Raikkonen gives him breathing space.

:10:22. > :10:29.Perez locks the front and has to give it up again.

:10:29. > :10:42.What Hamilton is chasing here is seventh. He is taking chunks of time

:10:42. > :10:46.out of those guys. We are on the last lap for Vettel

:10:46. > :10:52.now. It is a quick Grand Prix on the fastest track in Formula One. TEAM

:10:52. > :10:58.RADIO: Just bring it home, OK? We have got enough issues.

:10:58. > :11:08.We don't need you to chase fastest lap, that is what they are saying.

:11:08. > :11:12.It has been a very untroubled time. We are keeping an eye on Hamilton.

:11:12. > :11:16.He has got a great chance. He is behind remaining grows gene. Daniel

:11:16. > :11:18.Ricciardo is leading the group. -- behind remaining grows gene. Daniel

:11:18. > :11:28.the behind remaining Grosjean. He tucked in behind the Lotus.

:11:28. > :11:36.Grosjean will be aware of the Silver machine filling his mirrors. Into

:11:36. > :11:42.the pits as come Adrian Sutil. A retirement. Hamilton goes to the

:11:42. > :11:50.outside! He tries to go round the outside! He will have to give the

:11:50. > :11:53.place up. He does so. Ten out of ten for effort. But he just locked up

:11:54. > :12:04.and could not make it stick. Looks like it mate -- might release for

:12:04. > :12:08.Ricciardo. Coming through to win the Italian Grand Prix, it is Sebastian

:12:08. > :12:14.Vettel. His sixth win this year and his third at Monza, where he started

:12:14. > :12:20.his amazing career with a victory in 2008. Alonso takes second, Webber is

:12:20. > :12:26.third. Mark gets his first ever podium here at Monza. Hamilton

:12:26. > :12:31.hasn't given up on getting past Grosjean. But he has got to do it in

:12:31. > :12:39.the last corner. Can he work it? Use the KERS? I don't think you can do

:12:39. > :12:44.it. Ricciardo finishes in seventh. Grosjean holds on for eighth.

:12:44. > :12:49.Hamilton is ninth. Who gets the final point? It is Jenson Button. He

:12:49. > :12:54.fends off Raikkonen to the flag. Kimi Raikkonen fails to score once

:12:54. > :13:00.again after a non-finish last time. He comes to an early stop last time

:13:00. > :13:07.-- as well. You can see the relief on their

:13:08. > :13:16.faces. TEAM RADIO: Fantastic, Sebastian! You have won the Italian

:13:16. > :13:28.Grand Prix again! Job, mate. Yes! Very good. Good race. Thank you.

:13:28. > :13:34.Christian Horner joins us. Many congratulations, Christian. Red

:13:34. > :13:40.Bull's 40th win after your 50th pole yesterday. Good come isn't it?

:13:40. > :13:46.Amazing. It is a fantastic result. Both tribes did what they needed to

:13:46. > :13:56.today. We had an issue. -- both strikers. -- drivers.

:13:56. > :14:00.Does this mean we are going to see more of this through the rest of the

:14:00. > :14:06.season? The ones we are supposed to be weak

:14:06. > :14:09.at we keep winning. We will see. It has been a fantastic weekend for us

:14:09. > :14:15.to win at one of these historic venues. It is a massive result for

:14:15. > :14:17.us. Many congratulations, a superb result. The first and third form Red

:14:18. > :14:28.Bull. Thank you. Alonso finishes in

:14:28. > :14:34.second. Another solid podium. He always racks the results up. Vettel

:14:34. > :14:46.wins from Alonso and Webber. Hulkenberg, a strong fifth. He

:14:46. > :14:57.fended off a strong Rosberg right to the end. Jenson Button get the final

:14:57. > :14:59.point. Raikkonen misses out on the points. Further down, no points for

:14:59. > :15:16.Gutierrez. The Williams pair, nowhere near the points. Charles Pic

:15:16. > :15:25.won the younger drivers' battle. We lost Paul di Resta. He had an

:15:25. > :15:30.accident. No such troubles for Sebastian Vettel. That is now his

:15:30. > :15:32.32nd career victory, which means he has matched Alonso in terms of

:15:32. > :15:58.career wins. That will be painful to has matched Alonso in terms of

:15:58. > :16:01.the Spaniard, double champion, but the red old machine has been so

:16:01. > :16:07.mighty over the last few seasons. Ever since 2009, after these

:16:07. > :16:12.regulations, they were beaten that year by Jenson Button, going on to

:16:12. > :16:16.win the title, but since then, it has been all about Sebastian Vettel,

:16:16. > :16:26.winner at the circuit where he started his winning sequence back in

:16:26. > :16:31.2008. Fernando Alonso comes over to congratulate him, nice gesture. Mark

:16:31. > :16:36.Webber stopped elsewhere on the circuit. They stopped along with

:16:36. > :16:42.Kimi Raikkonen just passed the exit of the pit lane. This double width

:16:42. > :16:50.area. He will be walking back among the fans and you get all of these

:16:50. > :16:53.people. He almost looked tearful and I was much if it was a relief

:16:53. > :17:13.because that issue with Sebastian 's car. He mentioned gearbox.One man

:17:13. > :17:17.does not do everything, of course, but he has been a leader of men to

:17:17. > :17:26.help focus their minds. Incredible record in Formula One. He is a

:17:26. > :17:30.visionary in terms of design and he can see the car come from concept.

:17:30. > :17:36.And he has done that successfully with different teams but it is with

:17:36. > :17:43.Red Bull. Sebastian Vettel, crossing the line. He allied Fernando Alonso

:17:43. > :17:49.to get closer but he was always incomplete control of this race. He

:17:49. > :17:52.won the grand prix in the wet in 2008 when he became the youngest

:17:52. > :17:57.ever winner in Formula One and he won again in 2011, the year that he

:17:57. > :18:03.dominated the Championship and he is beginning to look like dominating

:18:03. > :18:09.2013. He did not dominate at the start of the year but he is on an

:18:09. > :18:16.amazing sequence of victories. Four wins out of six races. What can you

:18:16. > :18:20.say about Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull that has not been said already?

:18:20. > :18:25.Fernando Alonso keeping the fight going. Lovely to see that support,

:18:25. > :18:31.they have got their man on the podium. The noise is just

:18:31. > :19:49.tremendous. Mark Webber finally makes it towards the enclosure.

:19:49. > :19:57.You can certainly see which man Mark Webber is mates with. It was good to

:19:57. > :20:19.see that hearty handshake with Sebastian. Let's not forget, there

:20:19. > :20:25.was that damage on the front wing of Mark Webber and he still managed to

:20:25. > :20:30.deliver. That relationship is coming down. They have made their beds and

:20:30. > :20:35.they know where he is going in the future. They will not exchange

:20:35. > :20:40.Christmas cars but it was encouraging to see them looking

:20:40. > :20:43.happier. Brando Alonso did not seem happy in the briefing room before

:20:43. > :20:45.taking to the podium but second place at home for Ferrari, that is a

:20:45. > :20:50.taking to the podium but second good result. It is the result they

:20:51. > :20:56.needed this weekend. And they will head onto that podium as Sebastian

:20:56. > :21:01.Vettel collects more silverware but this will be special for Mark Webber

:21:01. > :21:06.on his last appearance at Monza, and he has never been on this podium

:21:06. > :21:15.before. It is incredible, elevated over the start-finish and there will

:21:15. > :21:48.be that sea of fans. The pit lane on the right, that used to be the

:21:48. > :22:25.start-finish. GERMAN NATIONAL ANTHEM PLAYS: "Das Lied Der Deutschen".

:22:25. > :23:43.The Austrian anthem. His heart is British at Milton Keynes. And the

:23:43. > :23:49.team will be delighted to have scored that double podium at Monza.

:23:49. > :23:53.The only previous podium finish they had was that victory that Sebastian

:23:53. > :23:57.Vettel got in 2011. They have not been on the podium except for that

:23:58. > :24:03.and this time, as they collect the construct 's Championship trophy,

:24:03. > :24:08.they can celebrate first and third place and Mark Webber finally gets

:24:08. > :24:13.that podium at this classic track. -- Constructors' jumping ship.

:24:13. > :24:25.Fernando Alonso. -- Constructors' Championship. Listen to this!

:24:25. > :24:35.APPLAUSE. Yet another finish with Ferrari. And on the podium, Mark

:24:35. > :24:40.Webber. Taking that third place. And that is a beautiful end to the

:24:40. > :25:13.European part of his season in Formula One. Tremendous scenes. Lots

:25:13. > :25:19.of Finnish flags. Not such a good day for Kimi Raikkonen, back-to-back

:25:20. > :25:29.races without points for the former world champion. That is a great

:25:29. > :25:35.shame. We will find out later about his connection to Ferrari but then

:25:35. > :25:38.uses that it will be made clear what Ferrari will do with drivers in the

:25:38. > :25:46.future. We shall hear from another former Ferrari driver. The man who

:25:47. > :26:45.took his... In fact, we shall hear from a couple of people. Jean

:26:45. > :27:00.Alesse. CROWD CHEERS. Sebastien... Can we start? You won your first

:27:01. > :27:06.grand prix here at Monza with an Italian team. So it is raised that

:27:06. > :27:12.shall coming back, isn't it? Definitely. Fantastic race. You can

:27:12. > :27:25.hear the difference when you win here. Wearing that red suit. Yes.

:27:25. > :27:31.Very nice. Very proud of that. Great job by the team, very good job by

:27:31. > :27:35.Renault. This is one of the toughest tracks that we go to. But this year

:27:35. > :27:39.the car has been fantastic and the race has been incredible for both of

:27:39. > :27:46.us. We were struggling with the gearbox so we had to place ourselves

:27:46. > :27:50.but for me, it was, yes, not that bad because we had that question but

:27:50. > :27:56.very great to win here and see all of those bans coming. This is the

:27:56. > :28:02.best podium of the season. Emotion is all about this, isn't it? And the

:28:02. > :28:10.fact is that Fernando Alonso did a very good drive and he kept you on

:28:10. > :28:16.the ball. Fantastic? Most people are dressed in red. But there are some

:28:16. > :28:29.blue hats as well. And those people are very happy. Fernando! Please

:28:29. > :28:36.explain the overtaking at the start of the race? It was difficult, they

:28:36. > :28:42.start was OK. We had to overtake Mark Webber and Felipe Massa later

:28:42. > :28:48.on and then with Sebastian, we were not able to close that gap so we

:28:48. > :28:49.were fighting with Mark Webber but second place is good to have this

:28:49. > :28:51.were fighting with Mark Webber but podium ceremony, the most

:28:51. > :28:55.were fighting with Mark Webber but spectacular podium of the year, for

:28:55. > :29:08.sure. Hopefully next year we can come back here and earn the top

:29:08. > :29:12.case. When you made that jump onto the grand stand, it was amazing. It

:29:12. > :29:15.was very close? It was close, obviously. We have to race, nothing

:29:15. > :29:19.to lose. We are second in the obviously. We have to race, nothing

:29:20. > :29:28.Championship and we have to take some risks and we did that. You

:29:28. > :29:35.understand that Ferrari love you! We are all behind you. Of course! It is

:29:35. > :29:41.the same thing. Big thanks to the team. For everything that they do

:29:41. > :29:49.for me and huge support from all of the fans. In deadly, some people

:29:49. > :29:57.tried to create some tension but will fight for the champion ship

:29:57. > :30:03.always. You have to fight very hard to go on

:30:03. > :30:07.the podium from the middle of the race. From outside, it looks like

:30:07. > :30:10.you had a better speed compared to the beginning. Can you explain how

:30:10. > :30:16.you had a better speed compared to it was at the beginning of the Grand

:30:16. > :30:22.Prix? The hard tyre was not as comfortable for me. But I felt good

:30:22. > :30:23.at the end. A great team result. Thank you very much a Monza. See you

:30:23. > :30:42.next time. These drivers are going to give a

:30:42. > :30:52.final wave to the crowds here These drivers are going to give a

:30:52. > :30:58.beneath them. It has been a great day for Red Bull, no doubt. Today is

:30:58. > :31:01.the 50th anniversary of the very day that Jim Clark won his first world

:31:01. > :31:06.championship. It was here at Monza. Today, Sebastian Vettel has taken

:31:06. > :31:13.another stride towards his fourth title.

:31:13. > :31:23.SUZI PERRY: Great scenes here in Monza. As you can see, it is Ferrari

:31:23. > :31:30.all the way. There may have been a Red Bull at the front. But he

:31:30. > :31:39.covered himself in glory. Eddie, Sebastian Vettel? That sums it up.

:31:39. > :31:43.He is the darling of Ferrari. He wants to savour this. You cannot

:31:43. > :31:48.imagine what it is like standing there with the winner's Trophy, or,

:31:48. > :31:59.in his case, second place was a remarkable place. I would love to

:31:59. > :32:08.see that shot. Let's hear from his team boss.

:32:08. > :32:13.Always great to have a Ferrari on the podium. Your thoughts after the

:32:13. > :32:18.race? We tried to do the maximum. It was not enough to beat Vettel. We

:32:18. > :32:23.knew in the second half of the race that it would be difficult. It was

:32:23. > :32:29.impossible, almost. We need to go that it would be difficult. It was

:32:29. > :32:33.back, stay focused, work hard. You are now second. Where are you

:32:33. > :32:43.with your championship thoughts? Never give up. This is really the

:32:43. > :32:49.approach we have to give. Why did you bring Felipe Massa in ahead of

:32:49. > :32:53.Alonso in the pit stop? We thought that Fernando could go a bit longer.

:32:53. > :33:01.We knew that it was a bit tricky. Thank you.

:33:01. > :33:06.Such a hard-fought race, not that Sebastian Vettel knew anything about

:33:06. > :33:09.it from the front. He was out there, away, clean. There was plenty going

:33:09. > :33:15.on throughout the field, which we are going to go through. But the

:33:15. > :33:25.scenes here, just seeing him give a hug to his boss, he is a huge part

:33:25. > :33:28.of Red Bull. Smiles from ear to ear. Adrian is a very emotional man. He

:33:28. > :33:35.lives and breathes this car. This is his child. This is something he has

:33:35. > :33:41.brought up from the cradle. He cherishes every moment. He knows

:33:41. > :33:46.this car inside out. You can see the emotion on the pit wall. To have two

:33:46. > :33:58.drivers on the polling, most people are talking about this the best

:33:58. > :34:04.podium of the season, and he has -- can ask for nothing better than

:34:04. > :34:08.that. Great to see him on the podium for his last European race, Mark

:34:08. > :34:18.Webber. I spoke to him before the race. He just said, I'll love to see

:34:18. > :34:23.some bubbly. He is well engrossed up their! He's having a ball. It was

:34:23. > :34:31.the Ferrari in the Red Bull sandwich today. As you can see, great scenes

:34:31. > :34:41.behind us. Check this out. This place is bonkers. You don't want to

:34:41. > :34:47.dampen the enthusiasm. They have got to stop shouting and let us speak!

:34:47. > :34:53.The entertainment in the race today, we all agree, was provided by Lewis

:34:53. > :34:57.Hamilton. Let's get his thoughts. Lewis, I imagine you wish the race

:34:57. > :35:07.was longer. Your car was switched on at the end. Yeah, yeah. It was a

:35:07. > :35:14.difficult weekend. You must be proud of how you fought. I was ninth. We

:35:14. > :35:24.should have been further ahead. Very disappointed. With myself. We blew

:35:24. > :35:29.it in qualifying. It was impossible to catch up. The radio failed in the

:35:29. > :35:33.race. I didn't know what was going on. I missed my pit stop collapsed

:35:33. > :35:40.by quite a few laps. Overall, a disaster weekend. Just explain how

:35:40. > :35:44.difficult it is when a radio failed. We could hear the messages from the

:35:44. > :35:54.team that you want picking up. Well, it's like driving blind. You don't

:35:54. > :35:59.know where people are. You don't know when to push, went to save

:35:59. > :36:03.tyres. You have got to manage it yourself and hope for the best. I

:36:03. > :36:08.gave it my all. It's just so disappointing when you are empty of

:36:08. > :36:13.energy and new games two places and got nothing. That is that for the

:36:13. > :36:20.championships. -- and you have gained. It will be sensible to say

:36:20. > :36:26.I'm out of the championship, yes. A big shame. He was down in the

:36:26. > :36:33.dumps yesterday, and now today. A shame he had that slow puncture. Oh,

:36:33. > :36:45.that is nice! At least it is an Italian flag! I'm not trying to take

:36:45. > :36:52.your job... No, but thanks. His overtaking today was sensational.

:36:52. > :36:57.The battle over Gutierrez first. This is a fabulous moment, when you

:36:57. > :37:02.feel that good, look, he is in a perfect position on the track. He

:37:02. > :37:09.takes advantage. He knows what he is doing. He has the speed he has the

:37:09. > :37:14.power, and he just takes the position. It makes it all look very

:37:14. > :37:19.easy. David Coulthard will tell you it is anything but easy. He was

:37:19. > :37:28.getting everybody shouting at the end of the race. One driver after

:37:28. > :37:33.another. Same place, look. First chicane, he has it off to 80. -- a

:37:33. > :37:44.T. A titanic move. You can't

:37:44. > :37:48.underestimate his brilliance as a driver. He is doing this without any

:37:48. > :37:53.team radio. He is doing it all on his own. You can hear cheers because

:37:53. > :38:01.DC has just joined us. Your fans are here. This is great stuff. He has

:38:01. > :38:07.overtaken Jenson Button. He had no DRS. He tries to come into the

:38:07. > :38:16.slipstream of the Mercedes. In the end there was nothing he could do.

:38:16. > :38:20.At moments like this, there is no greater joy than watching somebody

:38:20. > :38:24.like Lewis Hamilton. When he goes home and looks at the video and he

:38:24. > :38:29.looks at the moves he pulled he should be happy with himself. I

:38:29. > :38:32.don't like the way he is in his own mind at the moment. I have to

:38:32. > :38:38.question that. He felt he was in with a shot of the title. He wanted

:38:38. > :38:43.to do his best. This weekend has not worked out for him. He started with

:38:43. > :38:47.the slow puncture. How tough is that? It is difficult. That is why

:38:47. > :38:52.you have the pit wall. It was taking a couple of laps each time point to

:38:52. > :38:56.react. You have to try and understand why he was not reacting

:38:56. > :39:00.to the arrow on the board. It is not a few uncritical thing now. But in

:39:01. > :39:05.the past that would have been the difference between running out or

:39:05. > :39:09.not. He is not disappointed because he was in the battle for the

:39:09. > :39:13.championship. He did not have high expectations. I think he just has

:39:13. > :39:17.high expectations of his own performance. He can handle beak are

:39:17. > :39:26.not being competitive at any given time, but he can't handle when he

:39:26. > :39:29.feels he is not doing well. -- he can handle not being competitive. If

:39:29. > :39:35.you were his manager, what would you can handle not being competitive. If

:39:35. > :39:39.say to him? I would sit down and have a serious word and say you're

:39:39. > :39:46.not helping the team or yourself. You have got to think positively.

:39:46. > :39:50.Put it aside. Let's learn by our mistakes, whether it be a message or

:39:50. > :39:55.a radio system. Let's not beat ourselves up. Let's go forward. We

:39:55. > :40:00.need to be back on the front row of the grid. Let's talk McLaren. Jenson

:40:00. > :40:08.Button was 10th. Let's get his thoughts. Jenson, nice hat. Was it a

:40:08. > :40:22.good race for you? Not really, no. I had a bad start. I had to pull away.

:40:22. > :40:26.I had a good little race at first. As soon as I was stuck behind

:40:26. > :40:33.Ricciardo, there was no way of getting past. As soon as the fuel is

:40:33. > :40:42.down, it is harder to corner. The limiter is strained. The car behind

:40:42. > :40:48.can overtake easily. We got it wrong with the ratios. That's our problem.

:40:48. > :40:54.Hopefully we will solve it for the next one. I flat spotted the tie

:40:54. > :41:04.with 15 laps to go. It was like driving with Lego tyres. But there

:41:04. > :41:08.you go. Wow. Monza or bust. I think if you

:41:08. > :41:14.drivers feel like that this weekend. Jenson is obviously disappointed.

:41:14. > :41:21.You heard his strategy being played out on his radio. Understandably, a

:41:21. > :41:26.bit down in the dumps. What I would be questioning is they

:41:26. > :41:30.say they got the gear is wrong. What about all of similes the and

:41:30. > :41:34.strategy they spend money on? How can you get the gear is wrong in

:41:34. > :41:47.Monza? -- all of the simulation strategy. Christian, who is joining

:41:47. > :41:52.us, may be able to tell us. Jenson Button said they got the limiter

:41:52. > :41:56.wrong. Surely, with all the technology, you make a decision and

:41:56. > :42:00.you are either going for clean air running or, if you think you are

:42:00. > :42:06.going to be in traffic, you have to put a longer gear in?

:42:06. > :42:11.That was a decision made on Friday. We saw that we were a bit too short

:42:11. > :42:16.on Friday so we lengthened the gear to try to enable us to race, should

:42:16. > :42:19.we need to today. It is always a fine balance.

:42:19. > :42:30.Congratulations! Thanks for joining us. Thanks. Not that interested in

:42:30. > :42:35.Jenson Button's years. Terrific for Mark for his last

:42:35. > :42:40.outing in Europe, to get his first Monza podium. It must have been

:42:40. > :42:45.emotional. This weekend, Sebastien didn't put a foot wrong.

:42:45. > :42:50.He must have been amazing this weekend. The only mistake you made

:42:50. > :42:54.was in the rundown to the first turn, where he the right one. That

:42:55. > :42:57.gave him a hard time in the first stint. He had a massive vibration.

:42:57. > :43:01.Thereafter, after the stock, which stint. He had a massive vibration.

:43:01. > :43:06.was a double stop that the guys completed in an incredible time,

:43:06. > :43:10.that is what got him ahead of Felipe Massa. Just a great team performance

:43:10. > :43:14.today. You know I hate to make predictions,

:43:14. > :43:21.Christian. Because you're not good at them.

:43:21. > :43:25.Today, he won the 2013 championship. It was a mighty drive.

:43:25. > :43:31.He has broken the heart of the other drivers. I think Vettel demonstrated

:43:31. > :43:40.pure class today. A fantastic drive will stop its a great victory for

:43:40. > :43:45.us. -- a fantastic drive. It is a fantastic victory for us. Anything

:43:45. > :43:52.can happen. Our focus is one race at a time.

:43:52. > :44:03.How fragile was it towards the end of the race? Is that just a

:44:03. > :44:11.precaution or is it a real issue? We were biting our fingernails. We

:44:11. > :44:17.had to apply to get rings change in both cars. We haven't understood why

:44:17. > :44:23.that issue was. Then we started to see Marc Bosman gearbox pressure.

:44:23. > :44:27.That was hugely stressful. The only thing we could do was ask him to

:44:27. > :44:31.short shift out of the first chicane to help the problem. He coped with

:44:31. > :44:35.it brilliantly. It cost him little time.

:44:35. > :44:42.How close are you not developing next year's car? And this weekend

:44:42. > :44:50.helps you a lot. We have still got a lot to do. All

:44:50. > :44:55.of the guys and girls are pushing so hard back in Milton Keynes. They are

:44:55. > :45:05.going between the project of next year. That is the determination that

:45:05. > :45:11.we have in our team. Tyre It that pit stop was crucial for Mark

:45:11. > :45:20.Webber. This was the battle. You can see Mark Webber, 2.7. And Felipe

:45:20. > :45:24.Massa, 3.3 and you must take into account the total time from leaving

:45:24. > :45:31.that circuit to rejoining the track and Mark Webber was behind and he

:45:31. > :45:40.came out in front. Combined with that outlet, Sebastian Vettel had

:45:40. > :45:45.only left two seconds earlier so the turnaround from the guys, that is

:45:45. > :45:53.what they train for. Did you employ some octopuses? Their RFU in their

:45:53. > :45:56.but they train hard, it's the stuff behind-the-scenes that makes the

:45:56. > :46:09.difference and that is what the practice is about. -- there are a

:46:09. > :46:17.few. Let us hear it for Nico Hulkenberg. Congratulations. Big

:46:17. > :46:21.smile on your face. We are all smiling and happy. It has been a

:46:21. > :46:28.really strong weekend for you and Sauber? Very pleased. This is 100%,

:46:28. > :46:34.after yesterday, another great performance and today is the ideal

:46:34. > :46:38.result for us. We beat everybody apart from Red Bull and Ferrari,

:46:38. > :46:43.which is an outstanding effort. It was tough keeping Nico Rosberg

:46:43. > :46:50.behind and he did not leave me alone at all. I am annoyed with him. No, I

:46:51. > :46:53.am very happy to get points again! Hopefully have some better results

:46:53. > :46:59.like this in the last part of the season. The red old seeds are

:46:59. > :47:04.filled, but there is that prancing horse behind you. Do you think you

:47:04. > :47:13.will be driving for them next season? -- Red Bull seats. For weeks

:47:13. > :47:19.and weeks there has been speculation and lots of talk. At some point the

:47:19. > :47:23.decision will be made and we will see what happens. It must be quite

:47:23. > :47:29.tricky in that situation as a driver, waiting to find out what is

:47:29. > :47:32.going to happen and there have been talks going on and he has been quite

:47:32. > :47:38.open about that. From his perspective, even if he does not get

:47:38. > :47:44.Ferrari, perhaps another seat opens up at Lotus? He has shown today he

:47:44. > :47:52.is a quality driver and he is on the list for Ferrari. Eddie got that

:47:52. > :47:56.straight from the horses mouth. Unsurprisingly, he has been with

:47:57. > :48:01.that but Felipe Massa did a very strong job this weekend so it makes

:48:01. > :48:05.it figure for them when trying to see who can be better than Fernando

:48:05. > :48:09.Alonso or are we just looking for a good number to? Is almost as

:48:09. > :48:17.difficult as the situation at Red Bull, who can replace Mark Webber?

:48:17. > :48:21.Felipe Massa did a fantastic job today and yesterday. Let us hear

:48:21. > :48:30.from him. Was that frustrating in the end? A little bit. The race was

:48:30. > :48:37.very good at the start. I overtook two cars straightaway and the pace

:48:37. > :48:42.was acceptable. And then that pit stop was the worst problem with my

:48:42. > :48:49.race. We lost position on that pit stop and it was pretty hard. That is

:48:49. > :48:53.the only negative point of this race, in terms of driving I did

:48:53. > :49:02.the only negative point of this everything in a great way. They have

:49:02. > :49:06.been discussing driver contracts heading into Singapore. Do you still

:49:06. > :49:14.expect to be with Ferrari next season? Eddie knows everything! He

:49:14. > :49:21.will definitely know. It is better to just speak to Eddie! Do you have

:49:21. > :49:28.a contract in place next year? We are still discussing. This race was

:49:28. > :49:32.definitely important for everything, not just for my contract next year

:49:32. > :49:37.with Ferrari but to show the other teams what I can do. What I am able

:49:37. > :49:49.to do. My talent. I don't think it is so much to just say about that.

:49:49. > :49:55.He did say, speak to Eddie. How would you pick your driver for 2014?

:49:55. > :50:07.We want to thank U for yesterday but I am critical of Luca. I don't

:50:07. > :50:13.understand why it is his decision. Is he out of date? Yes, he is the

:50:13. > :50:17.chairman of the team and he has to make that decision but how many

:50:17. > :50:22.other people are involved? Because it is a difficult job, the league

:50:22. > :50:26.and Massa did a wonderful job today and everybody will say he is deep

:50:26. > :50:31.best team player of any of those number two drivers. Fernando Alonso

:50:31. > :50:35.loves them but you have that situation, what happens with Kimi

:50:35. > :50:45.Raikkonen and Hulkenberg and the rest? Luca mentioned him as well.

:50:45. > :50:54.Criticising the chairman of Ferrari! He must listen to his advisers, he

:50:54. > :50:57.is intelligent and he will listen? But don't you think he takes away

:50:57. > :51:03.some of the authority from the team to say that he will make the

:51:03. > :51:08.decision? Not together? Even if that is what happens, it is a better way

:51:08. > :51:16.of discussing it. Mark Webber 's winds have given the Constructors'

:51:16. > :51:22.Championship to Red Bull. -- points. If he is unable to win, can his

:51:22. > :51:26.team-mate win instead? You can clearly see what happened today.

:51:26. > :51:31.Felipe Massa made way for Fernando Alonso, clearly. And that was

:51:31. > :51:37.redesigned. I don't necessarily like to see that. It is part of Formula

:51:37. > :51:40.One that you can give those team orders and I am sure you have done

:51:40. > :51:45.that when you have to protect your position. The question with the

:51:45. > :51:50.second driver is, will they deliver big points and help you get the

:51:50. > :51:55.Constructors' championship? Mark Webber has been consistently the

:51:55. > :51:59.highest scoring driver, second to Sebastian at the end, he has

:51:59. > :52:03.delivered that every year and Ferrari have that strategy of

:52:03. > :52:06.winning the World Championship for drivers as the priority and they

:52:06. > :52:08.have that luxury because of their historical financial support but if

:52:08. > :52:11.have that luxury because of their that business model was different,

:52:11. > :52:15.the boost between finishing first and second in the Constructors' is

:52:15. > :52:23.something we need to take into consideration. Daniel Ricciardo

:52:23. > :52:28.equalled his best ever finish today in seventh place and we can talk to

:52:28. > :52:34.him. When we chatted on Friday night, you said it would be good, is

:52:34. > :52:45.it good? I think so. We qualified well yesterday and it is nice to not

:52:45. > :52:49.go backwards. In the last Q3 s, we did not have the pace. At least be

:52:49. > :52:55.finished in seventh place and that is all but the car was capable of

:52:55. > :52:59.and I had to keep the guys behind me. The downforce did not hurt us on

:52:59. > :53:04.the straights because it would always catch me on the second

:53:04. > :53:07.sector. Yes, pleased with that. Hopefully get more speed out of the

:53:07. > :53:14.car and keep working for the top five, hopefully, which is not far

:53:14. > :53:19.away. Are there more eyes watching it after that big announcement? No,

:53:19. > :53:25.it has eased off. I would say that most people watching my thinking,

:53:25. > :53:31.they will take his place? Who is most capable? That is when the

:53:31. > :53:37.attention was on me. There always is attention but it is more relaxed. I

:53:37. > :53:46.am happy to have that confirmed. Well done. He is in a great

:53:46. > :53:52.position. They have a very clear strategy, they don't have the car

:53:52. > :53:56.working through the corners but always set up for top speed so they

:53:56. > :54:01.will be happy with that result. Jean-Eric Vergne was having quite a

:54:01. > :54:05.good run and then more bad luck? His fifth non-finish of the year. We

:54:05. > :54:10.talk about Mark Webber not having luck. But he is at least getting to

:54:10. > :54:19.the finish. John Eric Verne is fast, no question. -- Jean-Eric Vergne.

:54:20. > :54:23.Next year is clearly his chance to show that he is capable of making a

:54:24. > :54:29.step in the future. Let us look at the race and we shall start at the

:54:29. > :54:36.it was phenomenal. That big start from Fernando Alonso, moving across

:54:36. > :54:42.to get to the inside of Felipe Massa, Mark Webber making that good

:54:42. > :54:48.start. And you see that double lock up, trouble, actually. Some bodywork

:54:48. > :54:55.as they run into that corner, Lewis Hamilton, Adrian Sutil and the other

:54:55. > :55:02.Force India going across. Perez going to the left-hand side, trying

:55:02. > :55:05.to get back to his position to avoid a penalty and through that second

:55:05. > :55:12.chicane, still pretty clean, apart from Paul di Resta. It's the back of

:55:12. > :55:17.Grosjean, role reversal. Grosjean went on to have a very strong race.

:55:17. > :55:23.Ferrari are so consistent from the start. There isn't a big difference

:55:23. > :55:29.from the left to the right side but you can see Mark Webber getting off

:55:29. > :55:30.the line better and then you have that run down to the first corner

:55:30. > :55:34.and I was surprised there was not that run down to the first corner

:55:34. > :55:42.more of a concertina effect and at the top of the screen, Perez

:55:42. > :55:50.rejoining amongst the pack. Look at that. Releases KERS. Thanks about it

:55:50. > :55:55.and then thinks, no, it is not going to happen. Holding Sebastian would

:55:55. > :56:08.keep going with that lock up. And slots behind Felipe Massa. --

:56:08. > :56:14.holding. Listen to that launch. Gets into the gearbox of Felipe Massa.

:56:14. > :56:20.Releases more KERS. He pulls that advantage. Around the outside of the

:56:20. > :56:24.first part of that chicane. Fernando keeping things clean, Perez

:56:24. > :56:30.rejoining on the left-hand side. And into the substring. Kimi Raikkonen.

:56:30. > :56:38.Jenson Button, of the line, he reacts to that. -- into the

:56:38. > :56:47.slipstream. He almost touches Perez and then goes, have some of that,

:56:47. > :56:52.and loses his wing. Very unlucky. Unusual for him to make that

:56:52. > :56:57.mistake. Paul di Resta, he has never gone out on the first lap of the

:56:57. > :57:03.grand prix, but unfortunately, he hits the back of Grosjean and this

:57:03. > :57:12.is the lovely angle. Look at all of that heat. That concertina into the

:57:12. > :57:18.second chicane. They are not designed to take that sort of fit.

:57:18. > :57:22.Unfortunate timing, during this time of contract signing, he is looking

:57:22. > :57:28.for bigger things but that was not what he wanted today? This is the

:57:28. > :57:34.consequence of yesterday. He had a fairly comprehensive crash and

:57:34. > :57:41.consequence of yesterday. He had a problems of qualifying means you

:57:41. > :57:45.move on. When you qualify badly and URL you back, anything will happen

:57:45. > :57:50.and you must watch out because you will likely pick it up. First lap,

:57:51. > :57:56.he is gone. He was hoping that he had a shot with Ferrari. We know

:57:56. > :58:00.that from the main boss. But Hulkenberg really made a very big

:58:00. > :58:06.difference today. And Felipe Massa. Kimi Raikkonen, nevertheless, Paul

:58:06. > :58:16.di Resta is the biggest loser. It cannot be just down to one race. I

:58:16. > :58:24.think it is. Why would Luca say, it is that close, it is down to Monza.

:58:24. > :58:29.Shall we continue on the red autumn? I am surprised as David is. -- Red

:58:29. > :58:37.Button. Let us look at the standings. That 53 point lead

:58:37. > :58:41.between Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel. Lewis Hamilton

:58:41. > :58:46.will need to make 81 points. He said that he feels like his hopes are

:58:46. > :58:51.over. Kimi Raikkonen in fourth place and Jenson Button, Paul di Resta

:58:51. > :58:57.rounding out that top ten. The Constructors' Championship. Red Bull

:58:57. > :59:07.dominating. Ferrari jumping over Mercedes. Something for Luca to

:59:07. > :59:15.smile about. That is the Championship. Of course, plenty of

:59:15. > :59:20.points on the table. Do you feel like anyone can battle with

:59:20. > :59:25.Sebastian Vettel? Can anyone take it away from Red Bull? People can take

:59:25. > :59:31.victories from him. Mark Webber has the best chance but Fernando Alonso

:59:31. > :59:34.was not that far behind at the end. Although circuits will not play to

:59:34. > :59:39.the strength of Red Bull but can they take the champion should? It is

:59:39. > :59:44.unlikely, unless something remarkable happens because he has

:59:44. > :59:50.been so strong. It is all about who is going to be second. If there was

:59:50. > :59:56.to be any damage in the Red Bull armour, you would hope. But

:59:56. > :00:00.actually, there is not any of that, it is fantastic, an amazing car. To

:00:00. > :00:13.hear the rest of that argument, you might want to watch this...

:00:13. > :00:25.Want more Formula One? Don't forget the forum. How much is it? It is

:00:25. > :00:32.free, Lewis! It is more than a novelty. You can find chat,

:00:32. > :00:40.insight... Not bad at all. So, the forum, just

:00:40. > :00:50.after the live race. Come on, we will all be there.

:00:50. > :00:56.And our next race, of course, is in two weeks in Singapore. We will have

:00:56. > :00:57.all the action at those times. It was raging Red Bulls today. Vettel

:00:57. > :02:03.was keen. -- Vettel was king. Coming through to win, it is a

:02:03. > :02:03.bastion that! Yes! A great race. Next time, round
