Welcome to coverage of the crown jewel of the Formula One season, the Monaco Grand Prix.

Vitaly Petrov has escaped serious injury following his crash.

Vettel has now won five races of six this year and stands a massive 58 points clear of Hamilton in the standings. Webber, Button and Alonso follow close behind.

Sergio Perez's father says his son is okay after that crash in qualifying and hopefully he will be back for the next race. It has been an incident-packed weekend.

Vettel is over the moon as he lifts the trophy. Button does not look too displeased with a third. Alonso also wondering what he has to do to win a race.

Positions seven to 10 filled by Sutil, Heidfeld, Barrichello and Buemi. The full results are on the left.

Kobayashi just remains ahead of Hamilton - still under investigation - to take fifth.

Webber with a fastest lap to finish and take a gutsy fourth.

Alonso flashes over the line for second and Button completes the podium.

VETTEL WINS THE MONACO GRAND PRIX! He was fortunate, but a win's a win!

Webber with a great move on Kobayashi for fourth! The Japanese retakes it unfairly and has to give the place back to the Australian. Final lap of the grand prix.

Hamilton in sixth now right up behind Webber. DRS enabled. A second of difference from first position to second and second to third.

Lewis in the wars all day. The incident comes under investigation. The front three clear and battling.

Maldonado has crashed and is sideway in the middle of the track! Hamilton again trying to go up the inside hit him!

Vettel away well and Alonso also quick, but Button was caught napping.

Hamilton's team have won the race to be ready with the rear wing and they restart behind the safety car.

The points order at the restart: 1.Vettel 2.Alonso 3.Button 4.Kobayashi 5.Webber 6.Maldonado 7.Hamilton 8.Sutil 9.Heidfeld 10.Barrichello

Petrov has some pain in his leg, Renault boss Eric Boullier tells the BBC. It may be bruising.

The race will restart around four minutes past.

McLaren's mechanics fix the broken rear wing. And Vettel is allowed fresh tyres on the Red Bull! This has worked out brilliantly for Red Bull.

Race control says that the contest will be resumed when the track is clear. Petrov is out of the car.
