I think Raikonnen was running light. The time disparity between him and De La Rosa doesn't match the skill gap. Unless something happened, cos I didn't see qualifying.
Alonso almost crashed all by himself during the race, taking a pretty risky trek through the sand before luckily getting it back on the track.

And Raikkonen was running light, he pitted after only 9 laps, ending up with a 3 stopper. They screwed up his fuel load in qualifying, so all they could do was try to get pole and run as fast as they could in hopes of opening a gap with a lighter load. He did good finishing 3rd with that strategy and that car I think.
