Race Notes

Kimi Raikkonen holds off Fernando Alonso to capture his 1st win since returning following a multi-year layoff from F1.

Raikkonen inherits the lead midway through the race, and then fights off a challenge from Ferrari's Alonso to take the win, and give Lotus its 1st win since 1987. Meanwhile, Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel climbs through the field after starting last from Pit Lane to take 3rd and maintain his championship lead over Alonso.

Alonso does cut 3 points from Vettel's lead, closing within 10 points heading into the final 2 races.
