McLaren driver blaming his rivals
After failing to make the top-ten cut in qualifying at Indianapolis, McLaren's Juan Pablo Montoya claimed he was blocked by rivals including pole-sitter Michael Schumacher.
"Schumacher got in my way on my second run," said the Colombian, "and in my third run I was blocked by Monteiro. He was going way too slow which really ruined my lap."

On the bright side, Montoya - unlike those in front of him - can tinker with his fuel strategy for the Grand Prix.
Montoya qualified 11th in his McLaren Mercedes, two positions behind team-mate Kimi Raikkonen who also struggled for pace in his MP4-21.
