Less than 20 minutes remain. The race will not complete 75% distance and only half points will be awarded.

Raikkonen is in the pit area having an icecream. He is certainly out of the race!

The 10 minute signal has not been given. There is 11 minutes remaining until 2 hours so practically speaking the race is over!

With no 10 minute signal and with under 8 minutes for the 2 hour limit. The Malaysian Grand Prix is over.
