Schumi takes pole for Spanish GP

Barcelona:

Formula One champion Michael Schumacher took pole position for Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix. The German timed 1:15.022 in his Ferarri during today's qualifying. He finished ahead of Williams-BMW's Juan Pablo Montoya of Colombia, who clocked 1:15.639, and BAR-Honda's Takuma Sato of Japan who took third spot after timing 1:16.144. Schumi has already won the first four races of this season. He will equal Briton Nigel Mansell's 1992 record of five consecutive victories from the start of a season if he manages to win this race.
