red flag came out part way through lap 32, therefore last completed racing lap was 31 so results declared as end of lap 31.
Rules are very clear on this and have been called upon several times over the last 20-30 years or so.

I know the SC was called out(and then the red flag) for safety reason I agree with but I feel Glock was sort of robbed of a win, as I think he was going to cacth Button in 1-2 laps... anyway I'm not complaining as I truly agree with the reasons to stop the race
Fan of Timo Glock and proud of it! :champion: 3 podiums, new start as a Virgin :p

I have to admit that the end was confusing due to the frantic activity with everyone pitting (some twice in 2 laps!) and then cars spinning off followed by the safety car. I am glad that I'm not an official scorer on this one! This is a race finish that really should be reviewed carefully.

Webber was robbed too... but rules are rules. We'll just have to get over it.
