Lotus’s Kimi Raikkonen will start Sunday’s 2013 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix from the back of the grid after his car failed a post-qualifying floor deflection test at Yas Marina. Raikkonen had qualified fifth.

“Car number 07 did not comply with Article 3.17.5 of the 2013 FIA Formula One Technical Regulations as the front floor deflected more than 5mm vertically when the load was applied vertically to it at the point which lies 100mm of car centre line on the LHS,” said a technical report by the FIA’s Formula One technical delegate, Jo Bauer.

This weekend race, the penultimate race for 2013, will be at Austin's Circuit of The Americas, USA.

Qualifying is 2 am Sunday (our time) and race day is 3 am on Monday (our time).

Kimi has decided to sit out this race because of back problem and needing surgery to prepare for 2013 season. There is a also a spat with the team, which he said has not paid him his salary for some time. Kimi goes to Ferrari in 2014 to partner Alonso.

Our Jaguh Kampong, Tony Fernandes's Caterham, is at the bottom.

Success in running a budget airline does not automatically mean F1 success too.
