1. Not too sure on the specifics
2. Qualifying is done in 3 sessions, after the first session the care with the 17th fastest time and onwards are knocked out and ordered according to their times, the remaining 16 cars times are reset and they qualify in the second session. After this session cars with the 11th fastest time are knocked out and ordered (in positions 11 -16) according to time. The times in the final session are used to determine the remaining places. In this case Mark Webber made it to the final session but had technical problems going into the final session so had to withdraw from that session.
3. They have a strict set of rules which they must follow http://www.formula1.com/inside_f1/rules_and_regulations/technical_regulations/, this is often subject to controversy as teams try to bend the rules and look for loopholes.
4. I think you are allowed to make one defensive move http://www.formula1.com/inside_f1/rules_and_regulations/sporting_regulations/8683/fia.html
5. Its done by the the splits before a DRS zone. If the gap is small enough, when you enter a DRS zone the button become activate and you can choose to use it.
6. Not too sure
7. Again not too sure
8. Only if they gained an advantage, usually punished by a drive through penalty, where they have to go through the pit lane stopping for 10 or so seconds.
