Sebastian Vettel Has a Seventh Pole This Year by V Kullar
Vettel and Red Bull Racing team-mate Mark Webber blew away their rivals in the first 90-minute session at the Hungaroring, with the duo a second quicker than any other driver.
But in the afternoon run Vettel pulled away from even Webber, who had to settle for the third best time at the end of the day, with Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso sandwiched between them half a second down.
In the morning Vettel had posted a lap of one minute 20.976secs for a track that is regularly described as tight and twisty.
Even with the final practice session still to run, Vettel is now a hot favourite to make it four poles in a row, his seventh of the season, and what would be the team’s 11th in 12 races.
Yet despite such dominance in qualifying, it is McLaren who lead the way in both the drivers’ and constructors’ championships.
However, the Woking-based marque again face another late night if they are to find any pace in comparison to Red Bull and Ferrari as Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button were sixth and ninth overall, trailing by 1.221secs and 1.643secs respectively.
Felipe Massa, on his first day back at the track where just over a year ago he was involved in a near-fatal accident, was a creditable fourth, 0.899secs off Vettel.
As if Massa did not have enough to contend with following the fall out from Hockenheim, the Brazilian has also had to cope with the emotion of heading into this weekend.
The 29-year-old was struck over his left eye by a spring that broke off a Brawn GP car then driven by friend and compatriot Rubens Barrichello.
Massa sustained a fractured skull and spent three days at the local AEK hospital in an induced coma as the medical team fought to save him.
Massa made a remarkable recovery, leaving the hospital after nine days, although later required further surgery to have a metal plate inserted to protect his skull.
Massa took to the track admitting to having no memory of the accident, other than images he had seen on television, and confident the incident would play no part in his thinking.
Renault’s Vitaly Petrov was a strong fifth, but over a second back, underlining the superiority in terms of pace of the two leading teams at present.
Behind Hamilton and ahead of Button were Robert Kubica in his Renault in seventh followed by the Williams of Nico Hulkenberg, with Mercedes’ Michael Schumacher completing the top 10.
At the bottom of the standings, over 7.5secs down, albeit due to a technical issue that limited his running to five laps was Lotus Racing’s Heikki Kovalainen.
