The Spanish Grand Prix is done and dusted, and it was a strange race with lots of retirements. Kimi Raikkonen is of course the big winner in terms of extending his lead at the top of the Drivers Championship, and his team have now taken control at the top of the Constructors table thanks to another one-two finish. Whether their current dominance can last remains to be seen, but at the moment it would appear they have a bit in reserve should McLaren or BMW bring the fight to them.

To turn the F1 spotlight away from the allegations levied against Max Mosley, let’s have a think about who may be leading the World Championships this time next week after the Bahrain GP is done and dusted.

As things currently stand, this is how the table looks :

  Driver Points
1st Lewis Hamilton 14
2nd Kimi Raikkonen 11
3rd Nick Heidfeld 11
4th Heikki Kovalainen 10
5th Robert Kubica 8
6th Nico Rosberg 6
7th Fernando Alonso 6
8th Jarno Trulli 5
