Pre-Race Report
Championship standings
Alonso leads the championship by 14 points with three wins from three races. Schumacher arrives at Imola still without a victory after neither Ferrari was classified in Australia — the first time that had happened since the 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix.
Previous race
Alonso won his tenth career victory in Australia, with Räikkönen second and Ralf Schumacher third — the podium that would prove to be the final one of his career. Jenson Button ran to fifth before his engine failed on the final lap, just ten metres from the finish line; he pulled off deliberately to avoid the ten-place grid penalty that would have followed a retirement caused by engine failure had the car been pushed across. Both Ferraris failed to finish.
Milestones
The San Marino Grand Prix has been held at Imola since 1981. This is the 26th running of the race.
