''Kimi had all the lucky points in his hands''When Felipe Massa peeled off into the pits lane for the second time during the French Grand Prix, Ferrari team-mate
Kimi Raikkonen remained on track for a crucial three more laps before making his second and final pitstop.
From
a two second deficit, Raikkonen emerged from the pits with a two second advantage over Massa and controlled the pace to the chequered flag.
Massa for one believes the race was his for the taking were it not for Raikkonen's good fortune.
"I cannot say I am unhappy to end up second, having been in the lead for much of the race," Massa began. "In fact I am happy to have contributed to a Ferrari one-two, the first time I have done this with Kimi. But, I am just a little bit disappointed that I was not the one in front at the end of the race.
"
"Everything worked perfectly that afternoon, except that, at the key moment in the race I was not very lucky and last Sunday, Kimi had all the lucky points in his hands," Massa continued. "That's the way it goes sometimes."
"In qualifying he gained an extra lap being the first man out, then at the start of the race he was lucky to pass Hamilton and then he was lucky I got stuck in traffic. That is why I could not win the race, but apart from that I was quickest all weekend, taking pole position and the fastest lap in the race. Unfortunately, luck was not on my side..."
Massa, Raikkonen, Hamilton and Alonso all now have two wins each heading to the British Grand Prix.
