Magnificent Massa!

 

Felipe Massa put in a brilliant lap to take pole position answering his critics in his own way.  The brave Heikki Kovalainen thankfully returns after his big accident to out qualify his teammate for the second time this year taking second spot away from Lewis Hamilton who ended up in third.  Kimi Raikkonen made a small mistake in turn one which cost him some top speed and several tenths on his lap only able to place him in fourth while Robert Kubica put in another great qualifying run to make it into fifth spot.  The surprise of the day however was Mark Webber wrangling his Red Bull chassis into sixth position ahead of the rest of the field possibly on a very light fuel load.

With the top seven qualifying within less than a second, tomorrow's race is looking to be a great one!
