Just done a quick internet search, didn't have time before.

Now at Istanbul the weight of the fuel for each lap is worth 8/100ths of a second of extra lap time, just under a tenth. So one kilo of fuel, which is what Vettel is supposed to have saved, would give him a speed disadvantage of 5/100ths of a second over Webber in pure fuel weight.

Obviously there is no real source of the information there and I thought that they used more than 1.6kg per lap back then? Which is what his calculation suggests. If true 10kg is half a second. That feels more like it.
