A Singaporean businessman led police on a 20km car chase when he tried to flee after failing to bribe them on Sunday. In the 11.30pm incident, the 50-year old suspect, driving a Mercedes Benz, was headed to Singapore when he tried to cut the vehicle queue at the Bangunan Sultan Iskandar Customs, Immigration and Quarantine complex (CIQ), obstructing other vehicles in the process. Two police traffic officers on duty at the CIQ complex then tried to take him to the nearest police station. However, the man then got agitated and refused to cooperate, and offered a RM550 (S$213) bribe to Lance Corporal Awang Mohd Massahdi Awang Abunawas and Lance Corporal Mashri Sedek, said the officers.

Fernando Alonso controversially led a Ferrari one-two at the German Grand Prix after Felipe Massa was given coded orders to let his team-mate past. Red Bull's Sebastien Vettel was third at his home Grand Prix at Hockenheim, 5.1 seconds adrift of the Spaniard. McLaren's Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button never threatened the leaders but Hamilton's fourth-place finish means he still leads the drivers standings. Mark Webber was one place off Button in sixth for Red Bull after oil problems. The result was a first one-two for Ferrari since the first race of the season in Bahrain but Alonso's victory was soured by the coded team orders with 18 laps to go. Massa, who trailed his Spanish team-mate by 31 points prior to the race, was told by Ferrari chief engineer Rob Smedley over team radio: "Alonso is faster than you. Can you confirm you understand?" - to which he responded by letting Alonso through on Turn Six moments later. Following the move, Smedley added: "Good lad. Just stick with it now, sorry." The controversy marred what was in-fact a dominant display by the Ferrari's as the Italian team were consistently quicker than their rivals. Massa took advantage of a battle between Alonso and Vettel to take the lead at the start but on lap 21 the Ferrari pair traded places on Turn Six before Massa regained the lead - resulting in Alonso saying on team radio, "this is ridiculous". But ultimately, one year to the day since Massa fractured his skull during qualifying for the Hungarian Grand Prix - victory was taken from the 29-year-old. Elsewhere, the Mercedes of Nico Rosberg and Michael Schumacher finished in sixth and ninth place respectively while Robert Kubica finished seventh for Renault with his team-mate Vitaly Petrov completing the top ten.
