Alonso grabs win from Raikkonen

Raikkonen took the lead at the start from pole-sitter Heidfeld and looked to be crusing to victory until he ran off
the track on lap 30, five laps later he badly damaged a tyre when he locked his brakes passing a backmarker . Although Alonso closed the gap dramatically, it looked as though the Finn had just done enough, only for his car to spin into a dramatic retirement

Nick Heidfeld was second for Williams, ahead of Ferrari's Rubens Barrichello. David Coulthard was fourth for Red Bull Racing, with world champion Michael Schumacher recovering from 10th on the grid to fifth in his Ferrari.

Giancarlo Fisichella drove an unobtrusively impressive race in his Renault to climb up to sixth after being forced to start from the pit lane when his car stalled on the grid. Juan Pablo Montoya's McLaren and Jarno Trulli's Toyota seventh and eigth.
The second Red Bull, this week driven bay Liuzzi, came in ninth and Button took tenth

Fastest Lap: Alonso, one minute 30.711, lap 44
