"The Spaniard never looked in trouble after he had shrugged off the early challenge of Michael Schumacher in the new Ferrari - the World Champion retiring with a transmission problem."

This years races have been full of change compared to last year thanks to radical changes in F1 rules and Renault reigning supreme. Toyota have been the surprise package. Ferrari has been pushed down the constructor's championship table.

Now is the real test for the Scarlet team. They'll have to come up with a real good overall package quickly before Renault run off with the title.

Our own NK (Narain Karthikeyan) had to retire very early in the race because of some trouble with his car.
