LOL Vettel getting poll bit of a shocker to say the least

Hamilton will have to hope he can simply finish ahead of Raikonnen and Massa tomorrow, he can't really win it from 15th but he could get in the points 2/3 maybe ?

[Rahul]

I'm an anti Ferrari,pro Massa fan! So I'm going for a Massa win or at least a podium to get into the lead. But a shocker of a qualifying session.Vettel on pole?!?! I mean this can't be more weird.

I know yeah, i haven't read the full article on BBC yet but i think Hamilton had an error of some kind and it was really heavy rain.

I'd go for

1st Massa
2nd Kovalenein
3rd ?? Could be any of about 8 drivers lol.
