The Ferrari F1 team managed to secure a much needed win yesterday at the Sepang Circuit in Malaysia. It seemed very unlikely that Ferrari would finish in the top five let alone the on the podium. After the weekend in Australia and the results received in free practice were below average.
The race started with cars forced to use intermediate tyres due to wet track conditions. Racing got under way with Mclaren Mercedes team mates Lewis Hamilton and Jensen Button on the front row. Poor weather conditions forced stewards to deploy the safety car and shortly after that the race was red flagged.
The race restarted under safety car rules and soon after it was called in. Racing on full wet tyres drivers were still apprehensive to put the hammer down. Fernando Alonso wasn't buying the cautious approach he catapulted to the front with Suaber Ferrari driver Sergio Perez hot on his heels it. The young Mexican (Sergio Perez) ate away at Alonso's lap times and was soon up the Spaniard's exhaust. Contact with curb saw the Mexican slide onto the run off area.
1st Fernando Alonso, Ferrari
2nd Sergio Perez, Suaber Ferrari
3rd Lewis Hamilton, Mclaren Mercedes
