2010 HUNGARY GP: RED BULL SECURES FRONT ROW

The Red Bull duo of Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber did exactly as expected by dominating qualifying at the Hungaroring. A class apart from the rest of the field all weekend, the only question was which one of the team’s drivers would win the race to pole and Vettel grabbed the honour by setting a fastest lap of 1:18.773 to edge out his team-mate.Ferrari cemented its status as ‘best of the rest’ behind the Red Bulls with Fernando Alonso taking third on the grid ahead of team-mate Felipe Massa. Lewis Hamilton’s McLaren and Nico Rosberg’s Mercedes were next up with Vitaly Petrov producing the shock of the session as he not only took a career-best seventh spot, but also out-qualified his team-mate Robert Kubica by a place.Impressive performances by Sauber’s Pedro de la Rosa and Williams driver Nico Hulkenberg brought the pair into the top 10. World champion Jenson Button was a shock elimination in Q2 as the McLaren driver could do no better than 11th after complaining that the grip he had during the morning had disappeared.
