Italian Grand Prix qualifying

Fernando Alonso takes pole in the race tomorrow in Monza by doing a flyer of a lap in 1:21.997 followed by Lewis Hamilton who took 1:22.034 to qualify. The third position is occupied by Felipe Massa followed by Nick Heidfeld and Kimi Raikonnen. I expect a McLaren one-two and an exciting race tomorrow unless McLaren do something really bad with the pit stops. Amidst the new allegations of email exchanges between Pedro DeLaRosa and Fernando Alonso about Ferrari's tyre setup leaked by Nigel Stepney to Mike Couglan, a victory tomorrow should provide some solace temporarily to the stressed out team.
