The qualification has ended and Mark Webber is once more in the pole.
The australian driver has proven that he is in excellent condition, along with his team which also managed to take P3 with its other driver Sebastian Vettel. Lewis Hamilton finished the qualification session in second place, managing to split the two Red Bulls.
During the early timed sessions, Renault showed good pace and speed with Petrov, who managed to make some quick laps. He was finally placed 9th behind his teammate Robert Kubica who will be starting from P7 tomorrow.
Jenson Button was fourth, Schumacher and Rosberg took the next two places, Massa only managed to split the two Renaults and finished 8th, while Kobayashi took the 10th place in the final session.
The big surprise has been Fernando Alonso who couldn't make it to the final session and was placed only 12th. He had a mistake during his quick lap, but he showed that his car was not following him in his effort for something better. The team generally showed some weaknesses during the Saturday qualification as Massa has not been competitive as well.
It remains to be seen if the Spaniard will start an effort to climb up the grid, as he did in Monaco, providing us with a good race. We only wish that tomorrow's race will be challenging with many battles. No one would like to see Mark Webber taking off one more time with noone challenging him. With rain out of schedule for the weekend, we can't say that we are optimistic about the watching a competitive race tomorrow, but we really wish we will be proven wrong.
