• Kimi teaches Felipe a lesson in keeping cool

  Today's Malaysian Grand Prix was somewhat a chaotic affair, the race was red flagged on lap 33 after a storm hit the circuit with a deluge of thunder and rain. Despite not racing many of the cars struggled to even make it back to the grid because the sheer amount of water on track caused them to aquaplane everywhere.

  Once back on the grid/pit the two Ferrari drivers couldn't have reacted to the situation any more differently.

  Kimi Raikkonen, aptly nicknamed the Iceman, with the added burden of a suspected KERS problem jumped out of the car, changed into a dry shirt, shorts, and flip-flops and relaxed with a icelolly and a coke.

  Felipe Massa on the other hand.

  Rob Smedley clearly went to the Kimi Raikkonen school of calm!

  Whichever way is best, the fact remains Ferrari are still on nil points after two rounds of the 2009 season, Luca di Montezemolo won't be happy.
