Background
After the 2012 race, a debris fence on the pit lane wall was extended to better safeguard track marshals. — Did something happen during this race (e.g., a bad crash) that made the fence needed? There are no further details MWright96 (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Practice

if inclement weather returned — What does this mean? In case inclement weather returned? But if so, wasn't it already inclement?
- Clarified MWright96 (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
  - So were they afraid of using their wet tires because they had a limited supply, and didn't want to use them up if they might need them later? By the way, what source is used for this part? --Usernameunique (talk) 22:54, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
    - No to get used to the conditions in case such conditions returned later that week. Autosport is the source that is being used to verify this information. MWright96 (talk) 04:50, 22 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Qualifying

used the tyres with which they set their fastest lap times — Does this mean that if they had set a fastest lap and then changed tires, they had to put the old tires back on?
- Only if the new tyres were not the ones a driver sets their best lap time on MWright96 (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
from turns five and six — from turns five to six?

After qualifying
Isn't your normal convention to name this section "Post-qualifying"? Yes, that was the copyeditor who did that. MWright96 (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Race

Turn three was flooded, causing several drivers to aquaplane into a gravel trap. Bottas damaged his car's front wing — Cars were aquaplaning and getting damaged before the race even started?
- Yes that did happen MWright96 (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
Vettel made a pit stop from the lead at the end of that lap — At the end of what lap?
- Clarified MWright96 (talk) 06:22, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
  - So then is falling behind Pérez, Sutil and Grosjean in the first third of the lap on lap five? --Usernameunique (talk) 22:54, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
    - Lap six MWright96 (talk) 04:50, 22 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
prevented Sutil from returning to the circuit for 84 seconds. The Force India team retired Sutil — Did they spend 84 seconds and then give up, or did they spend 84 seconds, he returned to the track, and then they called him back in?
