Ferrari go one-two in Spanish formula 1 grand prix
April 28, 2008
Kimi Raikkonen has lead Ferrari to a one-two finish in Spain. His team mate Felipe Massa came home 3.2 seconds behind the 2007 world champion. Third place went to Mclaren’s Hamilton.
The one-two result allowed the Ferrari team to regain the lead in the constructor’s table ahead of BMW Sauber.
Raikkonen started the race from pole position and extends his lead in the drivers’ championship. Ferrari have won the past 3 grand prix’s. Raikkonen’s two victories were split by his team mate Massa who won in Bahrain.
Earlier in the race Kovalainen in a Mclaren crashed out heavily and was stuck in a tyre wall. It appeared that something broke on his car which sent him crashing out at high speed. Reports later in the race said the driver was fine, with no visible signs of injury.
Australia’s Mark Webber placed a solid fifth after being helped up the track following Alonso’s car having mechanical problems.
The next formula one grand prix is to be held in two weeks in Turkey.
