Malaysia Race Report

Disappointment in Melbourne victory in Sepang Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen storm to victory at yesterday's 10th Malaysian Grand Prix.

Ferrari were set for a one-two finish before Felipe Massa spin on lap 31 left him stuck in the gravel. Robert Kubica finished the race 19.57 secs behind Raikkonen, followed by
third placed McLaren-Mercedes driver Hekki Kovalainen who scored his second consecutive
podium finish.

Championship leader Lewis Hamilton did not have a great weekend following his win at Melbourne, a 5 spot penalty causing him to start 9th on the grid he later made up some
positions but then a poor pit stop demolished his chance to get on the podium.

This was a great race from the Toyota team Jarno Trulli finished 4th just missing out on the last podium place. "I really wanted this fourth place for the team and me. We did a great job, and I dedicate this result entirely to the team."
