Fernando Alonso has made it two wins in a row by taking victory at Fuji Speedway. In an interesting race the championship contenders both received penalties for separate incidents, and this enabled Robert Kubica to collect a fine haul of eight points for himself and BMW. Both Scuderia Toro Rossos finished in the points, with Sebastien Bourdais ahead of Sebastian Vettel. Nelson Piquet Jr. took fourth for Renault and Felipe Massa eventually came back to finish in eighth.

Hey Oliver, this just in man.. Massa elevated to 7th after Bourdais was given a 25 second time penalty. Drops him to 10th, moves Spiderman aka Mark Webber to 8th and moves Vettel to 6th. 5 points!!
