Team by team analysis of Turkish Grand Prix
ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Team by team analysis of Sunday's Turkish Formula One Grand Prix (teams listed in championship order):
FERRARI (Felipe Massa 1, Kimi Raikkonen 3)
Massa's third Turkish Grand Prix win in a row from pole position, second victory of the season and seventh of his career. It was also Ferrari's fourth win in a row. Raikkonen's overall lead was cut from nine points to seven over Massa and McLaren's Lewis Hamilton.
BMW SAUBER (Robert Kubica 4, Nick Heidfeld 5)
Both drivers gained positions from the start, with Heidfeld qualifying ninth. The German passed Toyota's Trulli at the start and gained two more places in the pitstops. Kubica also made a good start and was third into the first corner from fifth on the grid.
MCLAREN (Lewis Hamilton 2, Heikki Kovalainen 12)
Hamilton's race was compromised by concerns about his tyres, forcing him into a third pitstop where others did only two. Kovalainen started on the front row for the first time but punctured a tyre when he banged wheels with Raikkonen on the opening lap. The pitstop sent him to the back of the field.
WILLIAMS (Nico Rosberg 8, Kazuki Nakajima retired)
Rosberg made a good start, gaining three places in three laps. Nakajima suffered his first retirement when he was taken out at the start by Giancarlo Fisichella's Force India. Continued...
