A rain hit qualifying saw the start delayed by almost an hour until the safety car could tour the circuit and confirm it was in a driveable condition. Pastor Maldonado dropped out in the first session, but Lotus managed to get Romain Grosjean through to the second although he ended up just one place ahead of his teammate. The Williams pair had shown good pace up until qualifying began, but the wet conditions caught them out and they ended up knocked out in Q2. Valtteri Bottas was later given a three place grid drop for impeding Daniel Ricciardo on a flying lap, and the Finn dropped down the order to line up in 1. Nico Hlkenberg and Jean ric Vergne were perhaps the surprise names making it into the top ten. Jenson Button opted to complete his laps on intermediate tyres, when everyone else was on full wets, so he lined up tenth compared to his teammates eighth.

It was all about Mercedes at the front, with Lewis Hamilton setting a benchmark and then improving on the provisional pole time. Sebastian Vettel swept into second place with just a 0. German sure he could have improved if hed managed to cross the line in time for a final flying lap. It made no odds, as Vettel lost out off the line to Rosberg, dropping back behind both Mercedes drivers. It was a clean first corner, unlike in Australia. The main drama came before the race actually began, with Sergio Prez pulling to a halt at the end of the pit lane. His mechanics had to dash down the pit lane and recover the car but they couldnt get it going in time and he was unable to start the race. F1 Season' title='2014 F1 Season' />The first corner may have been clean but it was only a few more turns later that a collision occurred between Pastor Maldonado and Jules Bianchi. The latter was penalised for the incident, handed a new five second pit penalty by the stewards. On the second lap, Kevin Magnussen crashed into the back of Kimi Rikknen who had to crawl back to the pit lane and ended up running at the rear of the field. Magnussen had to pit for a new front wing, and also found himself with a five second penalty. Malaysian F1 2014' title='Malaysian F1 2014' />Both he and Bottas were also given penalty points on the drivers licence. It was on lap 9 that we saw our first retirement, with Pastor Maldonado instructed to return the car to the garage. Lotus were left to take heart from the fact that Romain Grosjean made it to the end of the race, although he was one lap down, and just outside the points. Out front, Lewis Hamilton led almost the entirety of the race. Nico Hlkenberg was running a two stop strategy compared to the rest of the top ten who opted for three stops. That meant he popped up in the lead of the race once, but soon dropped down the order again. The German eventually finished in fifth place, just behind Fernando Alonso. All the drivers started on medium tyres, and with a vague threat of rain towards the end of the race, most tried to run the white striped compounds for as long as possible, in case they could get away without using the hards. The rain didnt arrive with any force, which saw some last minute pit stops to take on the harder compound. Sebastian Vettel followed the two Mercedes drivers home for a podium finish, which was bliss compared to his teammates woes. Ricciardo had been running a decent race until a pit stop went wrong. He came to a halt half way down the pit lane, with one of the tyres not attached properly. The mechanics recovered the car and serviced the tyres, sending him on his way again. Having lost a lot of time, it was even more disappointing for Daniel to suddenly discover front wing damage on the car, forcing him to crawl back round a full lap and return to the pit lane. Fresh tyres and a new front wing, Ricciardo was on his way again, only to be given a 1. It wasnt a massive surprise when the Australian returned to the pit lane for the final time on Lap 5. Other retirements included Jules Bianchi with floor damage, Adrian Sutil who stopped out on track, and Esteban Gutirrez who came into the pit lane with his brakes smoking. Meanwhile, the very end of the race was tinged with intrigue when the Williams drivers were handed some team orders. Felipe Massa was instructed Valtteri is faster than you, which must have rankled, and the Brazilian ignored the call. With only a handful of laps left, there wasnt much time for Bottas to make any attempts anyway, and the race ended with the pair 7th and 8th, Massa ahead. Session timetable. Date. Day. Session. Time.

The Malaysian Grand Prix is always one of the jokers on the Formula One calendar you know its going to rain during the weekend, but you dont know when. This year it began during qualifying, the dammed up clouds over the Sepang track dumping their reservoirs just before Q1 and causing a 5. The conditions helped Infiniti Red Bull Racing close the gap on Mercedes AMG Petronas and split the Silver Arrows cars, Sebastian Vettel lining up in second on the grid behind pole sitter Lewis Hamilton, ahead of Nico Rosberg. Fernando Alonso recovered from a suspension damaging incident with Toro Rosso driver Daniil Kyvat to take fourth, followed by the second Red Bull of Daniel Ricciardo in fifth, then the off form Kimi Rikknen in sixth in the second Ferrari, Nico Hlkenberg in the Force India, star rookie Kevin Magnussen in the first Mc. Laren ahead of Jean Eric Vergne in the Toro Rosso, and Jenson Button in the second Mc. Laren finishing up the top ten. After that, though, the clouds decided they were done with F1. Save a few drop at the final corners during the race, the track stayed completely dry. And except for the beginning and the end, for the most part, so was the race. Hamilton, who hasnt been on the podium in nine races, did his impersonation of the late 2. Vettel, owning the race from lights to flag. Getting a great start when the lights went out, he took chunks of time out of his teammate every lap, Rosberg having managed to grab second place in the first series of corners, and kept anywhere from nine to 1. The only time Hamilton didnt lead the event was when he pitted and Hlkenberg stayed out for a few extra laps. When he crossed the line to finish the 5. F1. Rosberg followed him home, fellow German Vettel putting him under pressure at a few points during the race but never enough to cause genuine trouble. Any time you hear a race engineer say, calmly, Nico, you lead Vettel by 3. The finish marked the first Mercedes one two result since 1. Song For Mini Karaoke 5 here. Save for a flurry of passing and contact at the start and the usual tire worn drama at the end, the grand prix was a procession. Jules Bianchi in the Marussia said he was hit by Vergne not far off the line and had his car damaged, causing him to plow into Pastor Maldonado in the Lotus at Turn 4. Maldonado was out of the race right there, Bianchi carried on but had to retire a few laps later. Magnussen and Rikknen also came together on Lap 4, the Finn in the Ferrari closing the door on the Dane into a corner and clobbering the Mc. Larens front wing. Rikknen punctured his left rear tire and limped back to the pit lane, and the incident took all the air out of his race after starting sixth on the grid, he finished in 1. The stewards put the blame on Magnussen with a a five second stop go penalty and two points assessed on his superlicense. He finished in ninth. Vettel took third place, a surprise podium for a Red Bull team that was described as being six weeks behind the program after pre season testing due to Renault engine troubles. He had to get around his teammate to earn the place, though, passed by Ricciardo off the line and behind the young Australian for four laps before he made his move, also on Lap 4.

His FIA supplied fuel flow sensor failed completely, but this time Red Bull worked with the FIA to use pre agreed fuel consumption monitoring points. After a strong drive got him into fourth and he looked unbothered for the position, during his second pit stop on Lap 4. He pulled away, realized the tire wasnt fastened while still in the pits and had his car rolled back to his box and the tire put on properly but that ended his chances of a top five finish. Back on track and fresh out of his stop, he hit the kerbing at Turn 1. The race stewards gave him a 1. Lap 4. 9. After the race, the stewards hit him with a 1. Bahrain. Fernando Alonso nabbed fourth place, a late overtake on Nico Hlkenberg keeping him from turning in another one of his qualify fifth and finish fifth performances. Its looking the same as ever at Ferrari, Alonso saying after the race that the car felt slow the entire time and he doesnt know why it doesnt have pace. Alonso was seen taking a good look at Vettels car in Parc Ferme after the race, perhaps looking for visible signs of Red Bulls phenomenal turnaround that he could take back to the Scuderia. Hlkenberg, the driver who keeps putting midfield cars near the top of the order, made it another solid haul of points for Force India with his fifth place finish. His teammate, Sergio Perez, didnt even get to start the race, his gearbox having problems downshifting. Hlkenberg was followed by Jenson Button, driving his usual studious race to sixth place and managing to keep the two Williams drivers behind him in the latter stages. That was helped by Felipe Massa, who disobeyed team orders and didnt let teammate Valtteri Bottas through to challenge Button even though he was instructed to do so several times in several ways. At this point we wouldnt be surprised to hear the funeral director overseeing Massas final services declare, Bury Massa second the other corpse is faster. Still, the seventh and eighth places scored by Massa and Bottas prove that Williams, so far, is playing for real this year. Magnussen, who had to recover from his penalties and a nose change, rocked up ninth in the second Mc. Laren, followed by the quietly consistent Kyvat in the Toro Rosso. After the second race, Rosberg holds onto first place in the drivers standings with 4. Hamilton leaps into second with 2. Alonso with 2. 4, Button with 2. Magnussen with 2. Mercedes AMG Petronas pulls away from the field in the Constructors Championship with 6. Mc. Laren with 4. Ferrari with 3. 0. The next race is next weekend in Bahrain. Well see you then.
