HOCKENHEIM, Germany -- Kimi Raikkonen says Ferrari's radio messages at the German Grand Prix were not clear enough after he appeared to question team orders to let teammate Sebastian Vettel past.
After the first round of pit stops, Raikkonen found himself leading the German Grand Prix but with another pit stop to make before the finish. Vettel, who pitted ten laps later than Raikkonen and appeared to be on a one-stop strategy, had emerged from his tyre change in second place and became bottled up behind his teammate.
Vettel radioed his team saying the situation was "silly", telling his engineers that his tyre temperatures were going too high in the dirty air of Raikkonen's car.
