Kimi Raikkonen Wins 2007 Chinese GP
Kimi Raikkonen won today's Chinese Grand Prix after taking the lead from pole-sitter Lewis Hamilton as he tried to extend the life of his intermediate tyres on a drying track. Shortly afterwards Hamilton slid into a gravel trap at the entrance to pit lane as he finally decided to change to a new set of tyres.
Hamilton's mistake keeps the championship hopes of Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso alive.
