2010 German Grand Prix Race day at Hockenheim

Ferrari bounces back to form with a spectacular one-two, but how closely will the FIA stewards look at the switch between Massa and Alonso as the lead changed?

Sebastian Vettel fought hard to keep the Scuderia in sight and just managed to do so, but what about McLaren? Hamilton and Button pick up fourth and fifth but were defeated to the tune of almost half-a-minute.

McLaren and the rest of the Formula 1 field will need to work quickly to reduce the deficit to the red cars, with the next race just one week from now.

Lucas di Grassi retired with a mechanical problem after spinning at Turn 1.

Sakon Yamamoto stopped out on track in the middle sector while battling against the recovering Force Indias.

Jarno Trulli retired in the pits early when following Kovalainen as the Lotus pair made the best of a difficult start.

Sebastien Buemi was the first retirement, after being crunched in the rear by team-mate Alguersuari at Turn 6 on the opening lap.

Here's our round-up of the German Grand Prix:

Alonso leads Ferrari 1-2 in Germany

Stick with AUTOSPORT for all the reaction to a controversial German Grand Prix.

Ferrari team boss Stefano Domenicali ushers his drivers back onto the top step of the podium and the three of them stand for the photographers, to present a show of solidarity.

The champagne sprays on the podium but the atmosphere is far from bubbly, as Massa firstly declines to spray his bottle, then decides to soak Vettel.

Vettel fought hard but ultimately ended up third and is now tied on points with team-mate Webber in the title race.

Felipe Massa accepts his award for second place. He doesn't smile, knowing that it could have been him on the top step.

Stefano Domenicali collects the constructors' prize for Ferrari with the team taking a one-two, but is sure to face media storm later.

Fernando Alonso picks up his prize for today's controversial win, his second triumph of the season.

That is followed by the Italian national anthem as Ferrari celebrates its first one-two since Bahrain - the opening race of the season.

The Spanish national anthem plays on the Hockenheim podium for Fernando Alonso - winner of the 2010 German Grand Prix.

Timo Glock wins the new teams battle for Virgin with 18th ahead of Senna, who brings the HRT past the flag in 19th and the last classified finisher.

Alguersuari finishes in 15th with Liuzzi 16th and Sutil 17th. All three suffered from an incident at Turn 6 on the opening lap.

It's the 23rd career win for Alonso but his delight is tempered by the controversial circumstances.

Kobayashi came home in 11th, out of the points. Barrichello and Hulkenberg finished in 12th and 13th, ahead of de la Rosa in 14th.

Vettel grabbed the fastest lap with a 1m15.824s on the last lap.

Kubica finishes seventh to score good points for Renault, with Rosberg eighth, Schumacher ninth and Petrov claims the final point for 10th.

Button takes valuable points for fifth, with Webber getting his ailing car home in sixth.

Vettel takes solid points for third, with Hamilton maintaining his championship lead with a fourth place.

Massa holds on for second but is sure to be unhappy about letting his team-mate through after leading strongly earlier on.

It's a strong day in the points for Alonso and Ferrari, but they will surely face controversy over that switch between the team-mates

The Spaniard lost out at the first corner to team-mate Massa and was unable to find a way past the Brazilian until he was allowed through.

Fernando Alonso wins the German Grand Prix.

Lap 66: Button runs wide at Turn 1 and drops to 2.4 seconds behind team-mate Hamilton, as the Ferraris enter the stadium on the final lap.

Lap 66: Mark Webber is sixth but certainly has backed off the pace a little after receiving that message from his race engineer some time ago.

Lap 65: Hamilton is fourth but now 26.1 seconds off the leading Ferrari with Button a further second back.

Lap 64: Alonso holds a 4.3 second lead over Massa now with Vettel continuing to push in third, now 5.4 second back.

Lap 63: Rosberg and Schumacher have yielded as the Mercedes pair get lapped by the Ferraris at home. The team will still pick up some points for eighth and ninth.

Lap 63: Button has been closing on his team-mate, but Hamilton is told he no longer needs to save fuel. The McLarens are fourth and fifth.

Lap 62: Alonso has a comfortable lead of 3.9 seconds with five laps to go in Germany.

Lap 61: Kovalainen climbs out and retires from the German Grand Prix.

Lap 61: Kovalainen pits and this could be the end of the day for Lotus. Glock is 18th and has a comfortable 45s buffer over Senna's HRT.

Lap 61: Vettel is eying the 18 points Massa is currently holding, which would greatly help the German's championship challenge.

Lap 60: De la Rosa lost a part of his front wing in the move to lap Kovalainen and he's into the pits, wrecking his chance of points this afternoon.

Lap 59: Oh disaster for Lotus! Kovalainen is touring on the circuit after turning in on de la Rosa at Turn 2. The Finn hands the new teams lead and 18th place back to Glock's Virgin.

Lap 59: Massa is closing on Schumacher to lap his former team-mate.

Lap 59: Vettel is now right with Massa in a battle for second place.
