Kimi Raikkonen snatched a surprise podium - just ahead of Adrian Sutil - as Lewis Hamilton spun out of third place on the final lap. That was the fourth consecutive podium finish for Kimi.

"We got the third with a gift but it doesn't matter," said Raikkonen. "It is not the perfect position for me and team but at least we scored the points we needed.

"We got the most out of the car this weekend, it's good for fans and much better than finishing fourth. We will keep pushing as hard as we can, we know some cars are quicker than us, but maybe at some races we can challenge for the win. Everything worked well for us, and guys did some good hard work."
