Malaysian GP race results:

The race was Red Flagged with 24 laps to go due to a truly heavy downpour of rain. It was so bad that the drivers couldn't see where they were going properly at 20MPH and they couldn't even keep up with the safety car.

The race results were taken from the last lap the leader of the race passed the finish line, which was lap 31.

1st: Button (5 points)
2nd: Heidfeld (4 points)
3rd: Glock (3.5 points)
4th: Truli (3 points)
5th: Barrichello (2.5 points)
6th: Webber (2 points)
7th: Hamilton (1 point)
8th: Rosberg (0.5 points)
9th: Massa
10th: Bourdais
11th: Alonso
12th: Nakajima
13th: Piquet Jnr
14th: Raikkonen
15th: Sutil

Vettle, Buemi and Fishicella spun off due to the rain and couldn't get out of the gravel traps.
Kubica had to retire on the first lap due to an unsafe engine.
Kovalainen span off on the first lap.

Now because the race was halted before they completed 3/4 of the race distance, the points awarded are only half points.
