Homeboy Felipe Massa took his third pole position for the Brazilian Grand Prix but at a price because Michael Schumacher did not run in the shoot out session due to a fuel pressure failure. While all that action took place the flying Finn Kimi Raikkonen went 2nd fastest of the day taking a excellent postition to steal the win from the strong Ferraris.

Tucked up behind him taking his best qualifying position of the year Jarno Trulli takes 3rd but he maybe on a light strategy as we have seen before at Japan. Taking 4th is Fernando Alonso in a bid to keep Schumacher from taking his 8th title.

Homeboy and Home jinx Rubens Barrichello took 5th and looks pretty solid to finish in the points but I ask which will blow up first his luck or his engine? Giancarlo Fisichella will start 6th looking to help Renault pip Ferrari to the constructors

While another strong performence for Ralf Schumacher puts him in 7th and Nick Heidfeld will take 8th and Robert Kubica 9th that Sauber looks pretty quick round this track and could be a big part in the race.

While Michael Schumacher takes 10th ending any hope of taking another pole to put in the record books. Pedro De La Rosa will start in a disapointing 12th place the only advantage hes going to have is that the team can play around with the fuel load. While Britains Jenson Button puts his Honda in 14th due to a traction control failure.

We have all seen Michael Schumacher win from worse places than this but can he take the win? Will Massa take his second career win of the season? Will Alonso take the title and the win? Can Kimi Raikkonen crash the party and take Mclarens first win this season? find out the answer to all these questions by watching the race live tommorow on ITV1 at 5:00pm GMT time and stay with us afterwards for the race review.
