KIMIS PERFECT REPLY TO HIS AUSSIE WOES!

Kimi Raikkonen had a weekend to forget last weekend in Australia, but bounced back in perfect style to win todays Malaysian Grand Prix. The only opposition came in the form of team-mate Felippe Massa, who have taken Pole Position, led until the first pit-stops. Kimi did a longer first stint and this proved decisive as he seized the lead having set some blistering laps. Massa later spun out of the race, NO points from 2 races for the Brazilian.

Polish driver Robert Kubica finished a great 2nd, as McLaren strugged ( both drivers having a 5 grid place penalty didn't help ), however Heikki Kovalainen did finish 3rd for the Woking outfit. That place would probably have gone to Lewis Hamilton, who had a great start to lie 5th ( from 9th on the grid ) until a bad first pit stop ( problem changing one of the front wheels ) cost him dear, finishing 5th in the end. Still he leads the Championship Chase.

AQtually, it's true, what Nicola Trunfio is saying.

Nelson doesn't have much experience and doesn't know how to Qontrol it.

well, as far as i know gp2 cars (former f3000) don't have any electronic help (as traction control).. so nelsinho should know how to do it right without a help. it's just a matter of power.. hehe .. matter of power) plus talent and experience of course. hope he will be ok in the future

MASSA ANSWERS THE CRITICS.

Felipe Massa put his nightmare start to the 2008 season behind him with a good victory in the deserts of Bahrain. Massa seized the lead form Polesittter Kubica right at the start, and apart from pit-stops was never headed as he repeated his victory of last year at this event. Teamate Kimi Raikkonen followed him home, leading the BMWs of Kubica and Heidfeld who finished 3rd and 4th. Raikkonen now leads the Championship, as it was Lewis Hamilton who had a nightmare, a poor start then a collision with Fernando Alonso dropping him out of any chance of points.
