Canadian Grand Prix: Vettel takes pole ahead of Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton may have managed to make it four front rows in a succession, but it’s Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel who has taken pole position in a rain soaked Montreal for tomorrow’s 2013 F1 Canadian Grand Prix.

Early on in qualifying Hamilton and Rosberg dominated in the Mercedes, but the Red Bulls started to show their pace and in Q2 they were at the top of the leaderboard.

Felipe Massa managed to crash in Q2 and Button, held up in the pit lane whilst the accident was cleared, couldn’t manage to get across the start-finish line in time to do another lap, crashing out in Q2 and 12th palce on tomorrow’s grid.

But perhaps the star of the day was Williams’ Valtteri Bottas who managed to put the struggling Williams team in to Q3 and finished qualifying in third place, behind Vettel and Hamilton.

Behind those top three are Rosberg in 4th, Webber in 5th, Alonso in 6th, Vergne in 7th, Raikkonen in 8th, Ricciardo in 9th and Adrian Sutil in tenth position.

It looks like the 2013 Canadian Grand Prix is going to be another tussle between Red Bull and Mercdedes, but if the rain arrives tomorrow it’s probably anyone’s race.
