When the lights turned green I hit the front and attempted to build up a lead. Although I started on pole it was easier said than done. The largest gap I got was about 4 seconds between me and Button.
On the last lap disaster struck as I spun off the circuit. I got going again having lost just 3 places.
I tried hard in what remained of the final lap to catch up but this was impossible. I did pass one car to finish in 3rd.
My fastest lap of the race was 1.57.033.
15 points towards the championship scored this weekend..
I was second in the championship ratings with 192 points but now 9 behind.
Williams were still 4th in the Constructors 175 points behind Red Bull.
