During post-race inspection both Saubers of Kamui Kobayashi and Sergio Perez, who finished seventh and eighth, were found not to comply with sporting regulations due to a technical infringement involving the uppermost element of the rear wing, disqualifying them both from the standings.
The race results were adjusted with Massa placed seventh, Buemi in eighth, and the Force Indias of Adrian Sutil and Paul di Resta promoted into ninth and tenth respectively.
