Sebastian Vettel again took pole for the 3rd time and probably last edition of the Indian Formula 1 Grand Prix. The German F1 driver of Red Bull scored his 43 pole positions in his F1 career today. Mercedes drivers Rosberg and Hamilton took 2nd and 3rd grid slot, but where 0,7 sec away from almost 4th world champion Vettel.
In the all time drivers schedule Vettel already was on 3rd place on the pole position ranking. He still has to score 22 poles to equal Ayrton Senna and 24 for Michael Schumacher. He could be there in a few years. With Fernando Alonso on 8th place only bad luck or a Mercedes can stand in the way for Sebastian Vettel to win his 4th F1 drivers championship tomorrow.
