The 56-lap Malaysian Grand Prix is currently halted due to heavy rains at the Sepang circuit.With 32 laps completed ahead of the red flags, it seems that the race result will be declared with half points declared for the top eight runners as less than 75 percent of the race has been completed.
Jenson Button lost ground at the start of the race from pole position, but his longer first stint in bone dry conditions played into his hands and the Brawn Mercedes driver re-took the lead following the first round of stops.
Timo Glock timed his pit stop to perfection and was the only driver to opt for intermediate tyres when his rivals took full wets.
Glock carved his way through the field ahead of the very heavy rain and is currently classified second to Button as the race is halted.
