Michael Schumacher was involved in that Montoya collision and lost his front wing and was forced to go into the pits and fell towards the back of the grid. However as this happened Coulthards engine gave out on him for the second time in two races and have already put him behind in the drivers championship.

There was sorrow for Jenson Button, he was all set for a career high podium place in the Renault after Raikkonen and Barrichello were forced out also with engine problems. Though as the race got towards the end the car started to fail and Michael Schumacher managed to claim the final podium position and extend his lead in the championship.
