Shame for them it was the old bloke presenting the trophies, not the "other one", who had one of his better results...

could get even stranger. The race over ran the time limit by 6 minutes and 23 seconds. Alonso passed massa either just as the time expired or on the lap after the time expired. If it was just as then the results stand as far as 1-2 stand, if it was the lap after then there could be some controversy.

If that was the case, Hamilton would get a point too.
I don't think the time limit applies in the event of a red flag - otherwise you could, if the stoppage was a long one, only have a 1/2 or 1 hour long race. Brundle mentioned it during the restarted race, and I have the impression the "clock" was restarted from the restart.
The times on the BBC are elapsed from the original start at 1300BST as far as I can tell, as the race finished at about 1510BST.

Nope, the FIA rule book states that the clock will not be stopped during a red flag/ abandoned start situation. Alonso's final race time was 2.06:26.358
Thats the whole point of the 2 hour limit, in the event of a stoppage, your not racing till midnight if the delays stupidly long.
I dont think the differances in positions would be too differant, not sure why you think Hamilton would get a point? When did he pit?

Can't remember, but it was about the same time Alonso took the lead - they mentioned how long Hamilton was trying to stay out only 3 or 4 laps from the end.
The delay wasn't stupidly long either, so maybe discretion was used. The two hour limit also is there to stop ridiculously long (wet) races - If they'd had and hour or so delay today (I know, exceedingly unlikely), I doubt they'd have been happy, or the spectators been happy with a half hour race. As it turned out, the extra 6 minutes made it a bit more exciting.

I'm not 100% concerned, and quite frankley another thing against mclaren might have people starting to think theres a conspiracy against the team.
But if they are going to pursue the rules, they at least need to clarify the situation. If it is a case of letting it go the distance because of a small differance between the end of the two, then thats fine.
