BARCELONA - Ferrari's Felipe Massa won the Spanish Grand Prix yesterday to leave 22-year-old rookie Lewis Hamilton on top of the world as Formula One's youngest championship leader.

Double world champion Alonso finished third, eclipsed before his 140 000- strong home crowd by his McLaren teammate and the Brazilian winner - with whom he had collided at the first corner.

The Briton, totally unfazed and now the only driver in Formula One history to finish his first four races on the podium, leads the standings with 30 points to Alonso's 28 and Massa's 27. - Reuters
