Well, despite Jonathan Legard doing his best to make the dying seconds of qualifying sound close, I think we all knew in the back of our minds who was going to finish in pole.


Qualifying 1

Kovalainen’s Lotus opened proceedings, but a spin from the Fin at turn six meant that the first time of the day was set by his team mate, Trulli (1:40:533).

The Italian was quickly toppled by Massa and Alonso though. McLaren had looked extremely strong all weekend despite suffering with gear troubles. Button radioed his team to complain of "forced neutral" but still managed to get to P2 on his first run. Meanwhile his team mate, (also suffering with the dreaded unwanted neutral gear), sped around the track to get P1.

Around the halfway point the positions were as follows:

Hamilton, Alonso, Button, Webber, Rosberg, Kubica, Massa, Sutil, Schumacher, Hulkenberg, Barrichello, Buemi, Kobayashi, Liuzi, Alguersurai, de la Rossa, Trulli, Kovalainen, Glock, di Grassi, Senna, Chandhok, Vettel, Petrov

Now you probably see the Vettel was in the drop out stage at this point. However, practically the second I finished copying down the positions, the German popped up into P6 after his first run.

With just a few minutes left, Petrov took to the track for the first time after his mechanics had tirelessly worked on the Renault due to a crash in Practice Three. The Russian clawed his way out of danger and into P11.

With all of the new teams now occupying the bottom slots the question now became, who would join them for the embarrassing P18 position?

Well, that "honor" fell to Liuzi, who later complained of traffic holding him up.
