Alonso in 3rd is 1.2 seconds behind Montoya. Both have made their pit stops however Alonso pitted much earlier and is likely to be on a 3 stopper!

Tyre problems again for Heidfeld. Seems to be a problem on the Williams here!

Michael is back on track after the team repaired his car. He will want to move up so he isn't the first out in qualifying at Monza!

Alonso pits!
