Oct.22 (GMM) Not even championship victory has mellowed Luca di Montezemolo's unflattering assessment of Ferrari's title rival McLaren.

Speaking to Italian state radio on Monday, the president of Maranello based Ferrari hailed Kimi Raikkonen's unlikely victory over his McLaren competitors in Brazil as "sport justice".

"It would have been paradoxical if a driver had won with a car that was judged irregular and suspended," he said, referring to Ferrari's bitter pursuit of British rivals McLaren this year in the espionage affair.

"Yesterday was a triumph of sport in the face of disloyalty," he added.

Montezemolo also reserved no sympathy for British rookie Hamilton, whose points advantage over his championship challengers came under threat early at Interlagos in the form of driving errors.

"After Hamilton's start and that needless attack on Alonso, I knew we could do it," he added.
