Filipe Massa has taken another great pole in Spain. The Ferrari team showed there true colour’s in qualifying after sandbagging all weekend.

The Spanish were happy though as Alonso popped his McLaren onto the second spot of the grid, just a few hundredths of a second behind Massa.

Kimi Raikkonen dropped the second Ferrari into third, with the second McLaren of young Lewis Hamilton popping into the fourth spot.

It seems that the fuel strategy between the teams has been split amongst the drivers. Massa and Alonso seem to have short fueled with Raikkonen and Hamilton going slightly longer.

Behind the front four are the BMW of Robert Kubica and the Toyota of Jarno Trulli. Jarno is the surprise of the group in the top 10, Toyota have been slow all weekend.

Fourth row has the second BMW of Nick Heidfeld and the Renault of Heikki Kovalainen.

Fifth row has the much improved Red Bull of David Coulthard and the second Renault of Giancarlo Fisichella.

The race should be interesting. Will Lewis try a fourth to first move again? will the short filled front two pay because of it, or will they pull away?
