15. Daniel RICCIARDORed Bull14:50:34

    Engineer: Räikkönen's first lap was a second off Vettel's he then found half a second on his second push lap did a very similar time to Vettel so it does look like if you get a clean first lap the tyres will drop off three or four or five tenths on the second push lap
