German Grand Prix
Local favourite and seven-time champion Michael Schumacher, who grabbed a record equalling 11th win of the season here last year, looked like winning a dogfight with Alonso's team mate Giancarlo Fisichella for fourth place.
The German's fifth place left him 40 points behind Renault's Fernando Alonso with seven races left.
Schumacher conceded that he had no hope of retaining his Formula One title for a sixth successive year.
"I don't think I can count myself in this battle any more," Schumacher said.
