Renault's Fernando Alonso Wins the Japan Grand Prix!

Wow! According to Formula One website, Renault's Fernando Alonso had won the Japan Grand Prix, right after he won the Singapore Grand Prix.

That is a truly unexpected win for both Renault and Alonso. Wow! Looks like the former World Driver Championship holder is back with a vengence.

Robert Kubica of BMW Sauber won the second place while Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari won the third place. Judging from the writeup on the F1 website, it seemed to be a tight race for all the drivers and Lewis Hamilton of McLaren continues to encounter bad luck again.

Felipe Massa barely managed to grab 1 point from the Fuji race, thus reducing Hamilton's lead to 6 points. As for Hamilton, he bowed out of the race without grabbing any points. It was truly a bad day for both Hamilton and McLaren.

In any case, it was nice to see Kimi back on the podium, although he finished in third place. With 2 races left to go, it would be interesting to see how well he finish off in this year's drivers' championship.

Overall, it has been fun to catch all the results of the F1 race. Will Hamilton be crowned the winner finally? Only time will tell.
