SPANISH GRAND PRIX POST RACE INTERVIEW K imi Raikkonen got the better of his Ferrari teammate to finish second at the Spanish Grand Prix, a weekend where he had the rare upper-hand within the Maranello camp, and as has become his trademark struggled to crack a smile despite the achievement. Maybe he was peeved by the fact that the eighteen year old kid on the top step of the podium was half his age. He had this to say after the race: “I’m happy for Max but disappointed for myself, but that’s racing. We have our best after quite a difficult qualifying day and then a pretty poor start. We tried and tried. I was fast but once I got close I could not follow close enough through the last corners and losing downforce behind. “I tried and tried but it wasn’t enough I think after qualifying we would have been happy to take second and third but obviously we got so close that it’s even more disappointing, but that’s part of racing and at least we scored good points for the team.
