Wow, what a crazy race, as every year, the Malaysian Grand Prix was. Dry weather, rainy weather, near-monsoon weather. I think we saw it all today. The race was started, run behind the safety car, red flagged, restarted and eventually won by a driver and team hardly anyone gave a chance in hell. Fernando Alonso and his Ferrari made the best of a bad situation and crossed the start/finish first to take the win and the World Championship lead. Second place was for Sergio Perez in his Sauber. Simply an amazing feat.
