Lap 54: Sebastien Buemi has been into the pits from 13th. This could put Kovalainen close to taking the position.

Lap 51: 10 laps or 20 minutes remain in the Singapore Grand Prix.
Lap 51: Sutil is somehow managing to stay ahead of all this chaos in the midfield. He remains in seventh position with Hulkenberg and Massa right on his gearbox.

Lap 50: Kubica was extremely unhappy with Buemi's tactics and raised his left hand in anger.
Lap 50: The next traffic for the lead pair will be Timo Glock, with the leaders looking to put a second lap on the Virgin car.

Lap 47: The stewards will take no further action on that clash between Webber and Hamilton, deeming it a racing incident.
Lap 47: Petrov in 10th made a mistake on the last lap and lost a lot of time. He quickly posts a 1m51.903s lap and is about to haul himself back onto the gearbox of Massa.
Lap 47: But Alonso responds strongly with an impressive fastest lap of 1m48.867s.
Lap 47: Kubica is now 13th, but he will quickly catch up to the back of the Sutil train.
Lap 46: Vettel continues to pile on the pressure and the young German clearly wants victory here tonight.
