Kimi wins a second race in a row.
Kimi Raikkonen has won a second Grand Prix in a row today and signed his 3rd victory of the season as Ferrari's momentum seems to be building up.
The british fans present at the Silverstone track were hoping for Lewis Hamilton to win the race but the british pilot had to settle for a 3rd place. Lewis Hamilton scores a 9th podium finish in a row and keeps his podium streak alive.
The other Ferrari driven by Felipe Massa had to start from the pit lane, but came back in front to finally finish in 5th place only a second behind Robert Kubica. For the constructors championship, the gap between the two top teams remains the same; 25 points separate McLaren from Ferrari.
