It's the Mercedes driver his 25th pole of his F1 career. His rival and team mate Lewis Hamilton brushed the wall and had to give up in Q2 because of an suspension failure.
Force India driver Sergio Pérez will start as second! Perez who looks to be in top shape is very happy with his first ever 2nd place quali. The Force India driver never qualified any higher then 4th place in his career.
Daniel Ricciardo qualified very well and will start as 3rd for Red Bull Racing . Mercedes seems to be qualifying in a league of their own.
We normally see that the Mercedes doesn't perform as well as Ferrari and Red Bull with a heavy car full of petrol, so we will see an exciting first part of the race tomorrow.
