Fernando Alonso finished top of the field on the third day of testing this week at Monza despite heavy overnight and morning rain. The reigning champion finished the day almost a second ahead of BMW's Robert Kubica and David Coulthard third.
The rain eased at lunch time and by mid-afternoon the track had dried out. The rain disruption means that a number of teams will now stay on at Monza on Friday to catch up on lost ground.
Felipe Massa was fourth, but his Ferrari ground to a halt at the end of the day. Kubica also caused a red flag late in the afternoon when his BMW stopped on track. Toro Rosso's Liuzzi was fifth ahead of Button, Rosberg, Fisichella, Ralf Schumacher, Yamamoto in the b-spec Spyker and Davidson.
