Sebastian Vettel again showed his class as F1 topnotch rider by winning the European F1 pole position on Sunday (06/26/2011), after performing the fastest in the qualifying session. In the qualifying session at Valencia, Spain, Saturday (25/06/2011), the mainstay of the team Red Bull Racing has soared to the fastest with a best time of 1 minute nicks 36.975 seconds.
Vettel makes his success has won pole position 22 times during his career in F1 with the highest achievement won the world championship 2010. Now, he leads the standings with a total value of 161 points.
Apparently, the eighth race in Valencia this series will be owned by Red Bull. Because, in addition to Vettel, his teammate, Mark Webber is, with him in front. In fact, when the first session, the Australian rider ranks 17th and fifth in the second qualifying.
When they do start with a smooth, finished 1-2 it is not possible to record without any distractions. Or, if you do a bad start, a chance they could be brushed by Lewis Hamilton (McLaren) and Fernando Alonso (Ferrari) who occupy the third and fourth start.
While last year's champion, Jenson Button (McLaren), must start from sixth position. British rider is accompanied by Felipe Massa of Ferrari who are so hungry for victory. Apparently, Ferrari will rely on soft compound tires at the start to compensate for the performance of Red Bull is very difficult to conquer today.
