Michael wins at the Barcelona circuit

Michael Schumacher wins again at the Barcelona circuit! Besides that, it's another Ferrari One and Three but this time in-between we have Fernando Alonso, the hero of Spain where he virtually drove an excellent race and no doubt that his future is very bright for what seems to be his second season in Formula 1 after starting his career with the Minardi team. There was a fair amount of incidents during the start of the race, the most notable one being Antonio Pizzonia's Jaguar failed to initiate the launch control causing Championship leader Kimi Raikkonen to ram into the back of the Jaguar and therefore the safety car had to be deployed. Other than that, David Coulthard went off after touching Jenson Button's car while trying to overtake him at one point and so it's a double blow for McLaren but they're still leading the Championship thanks to their consistent performance throughout the few races this season.
