There are so many of the top drivers starting at the back and that will make the race very interesting!

Michael Schumacher is 14th, Alonso is 16th, Raikkonen is 17th while Montoya is 18th!

Lots of smoke from Button's car but it may be just excess oil!

Montoya crashes!
I suspect Ron Dennis is probably having nightmares right now, watching that constructors' title slip away some!
