McLaren were the team to beat in Chinese
practice, but it was title rivals Renault
who sprung a Shanghai surprise in qualifying
to lock out the front row. Alonso took pole
from Fisichella, with Raikkonen third and
Montoya fifth, the two McLarens split by
the BAR of Button. The question on everyone’s
lips was whether the blue cars were running
light? As it turned out, the question never
really became relevant.
