It's Begun in Sepang !


Both Ferrari side by side right after start - F1 Live

Today, in the Sepang Malaysian GP, Kimi finally got his first win after a terrible opening at Melbourne last week. Qualifying session was great for Kimi, however at the last minutes Massa got better speed that make him the pole sitter. Starting from P2, Kimi got a good start, as well as Massa. On the first turn, I held my breath for a second when Massa pushed hiscar to Kimi a little bit, and just for that second I think they will collide each other. But, luckily, I think Kimi realize that if he pushed it, things would turn bad for everybody. So, he didn't push anymore.

The sign of his leading shown after first pit stop. Massa came in first, and that time (as always) Kimi paced his car with lighter fuel before he come in himself. I think that what's at the end turned both Ferrari driver's position. Kimi came out from pit just in front of Massa (Hooray!). And from that time on he lead the race far from everybody.

As Hamilton finished only in P5, the point position for Kimi is now 11 : 14. 3 points appart, but...it's still the start. There are still many races, and there 
are still many things can happen. I do hope this win in Sepang will burn the spirit 
of every team member of Ferrari, and of course my hero : Kimi Raikkonen!.
