F1 Grand Prix Results...

End of F1 Grand Prix Marina Bay Street Circuit.

Results as follows:

1st: F Alonso (Renault)
2nd: N Rosberg (Williams)
3rd: L Hamilton (Mclaren)

During the start, at pole position was F Massa followed by L Hamilton at 2nd, with K Raikkonen at 3rd. Alonso was starting at the 15th position...

It all started well with Massa leading and slowly pulling away each lap from Hamilton. Alonso did well too by slowly overtaking and climbing his way up. It all went ok till N Piquet (Renault) crashed... This incident changed everything with most of the drivers going into pitstops and the rest following the safety car till the track was cleared. When the race resumes, J Truli was leading the race with Hamilton at position 8.

Ferrari's first mistake was to display green lights at the pitstop to give Massa the 'GO' when the fuel hose was still undetached. It isn't known whether it was a technical glitch or human error that caused it. This caused Massa almost 1 min delay which resulted him landing in the 18th position right at the end.

Massa's morale fell rock bottom after the mishap, he was driving quite badly, cutting corners, very very distracted. and during the turn at the floating platform, he overshot, and rejoined the race carelessly resulted in the 2nd crash - A Sutil (First India). Once again the safety car was deployed, closing up the gap between all the positions, with Rosberg initially 2nd place (+25s) behind Alonso in 1st place now closing tailing Alonso and Hamilton closely at his heels.

K Raikkonen crashed unexpectedly during the last few laps, leaving Ferrari totally out of the race. They sure did Hamilton a great favor in that by securing his Grand Prix points. With Ferrari out of the race, Mclaren is now siting on top of the constructors championship.

The last 5 laps of the race were very consistent with Alonso leading, Rosberg at 2nd and Hamilton in 3rd ending the race in the respective order. Massa and Raikkonen was 13th and 15th respectively.

The others that i vague remember that was out of the race were:
M Webber (Red Bull)
J Truli ( Toyota) with gearbox problem.

Well it indeed was an eventful race with the most unexpected conclusion but i really did enjoyed watching it....
