| The
starting grid for the 2009 Spanish GP is now set...and Jenson Button used
a last second Q3 hot lap to steal pole position from Sebastian Vettel.
Rubens had a strong weekend and perhaps didn't push as hard in Q3 feeling
he had pole in the bag, and will start 3rd on the grid. Ferrari's
Kimi Räikkönen didn't advance past Q1 due to another Ferrari
mistake. Kimi watched the last minutes of the session from the
garage, having been called in too soon by the team. Felipe showed
strong pace on Saturday. The race tomorrow should be a good fight as
the Brawn cars have less fuel than Vettel. Here is the grid: |
