With Malaysian GP win Sebastian Vettel makes it two in a row


In almost an identical fashion Sebastian Vettel once again drove like a champion to win Malaysian GP, his second Formula 1 2011 season victory in as many starts. And once again he made it from pole to win in a very comfortable manner.

Jenson Button and Nick Heidfeld also had a great outing as they finished their races in second and third place respectively. But Mark Webber was still somewhat unlucky though Fellipe Massa and Fernando Alonso had a better outing for Ferrari as they crossed the finish line one after the other.

For the Indian fans it was a good day as Narain Kartikeyan finally made his 2011 debut, in fact his team mate also got the chance to make it to the actual race, though both were unable to actually finish the race. On a whole it was a more or less an incident free race except for one of the cars being airborne for a while and only 16 cars finishing the race.

Three-way battle seems to be on the cards

After two races Red Bull is at the top of the table with 72 points and McLaren is second with 50 points. Both the teams must be feeling quite satisfied with way the cars and the drivers have performed so far.

Going by what has happened so far, it appears that like 2010 it’s once again going to be a three way battle for the constructor’s title among these two and Ferrari. As for the driver’s title, well it’s really too soon to actually know how things will pan out.
