Another slow lap from Montoya. Looks like he has a similar tyre problem to Raikkonen!

Raikkonen is catching Fisichella at around a second a lap. He is 6.1 seconds behind. This is thrilling stuff!

Looks like Montoya will take the risk and stay out. Alonso is 4.9 seconds behind but has traffic!

2 laps to go!

Alonso still has Villeneuve between him and Montoya. Unless Montoya's tyre completely fails he won't take him!

Michael Schumacher went off the track and lost a place to Massa.
Villeneuve finished 11th ahead of Barrichello and Klien!

A thrilling race with no retirements. That is amazing!
