Oh good, for once (is quite a long time) its not McLaren or Red Bull that are on the top spot of the podium!!! So what is the controversy then? The fact that Ferrari shouldn't have intervened when both Alonso and Massa were practically running side-by-side. Ok, maybe not that but clearly Massa was robbed of a good result...

On lap 49 of the 67 lap race, Ferrari clearly gave an instruction to Massa to give way for Alonso to overtake. Citing that "Alonso was quicker" in such a manner that was clearly an indication for Massa to give way for Alonso to take the lead. For gods sake, why did Ferrari have to do this? It was just as bad when Rubens Barrichello gave away the win to Michael Schumacher on the last corner on the last lap of the 2002 Austrian Grand Prix. I don't know why, but Alonso could have gotten passed Massa anyhow judging by the pace he was running back then. Not sure what penalty Ferrari will get after this, but stay tuned...

In the mean time, the Ferrari 1-2 remains.
