Oliver WhiteWith qualifying for tomorrow’s Australian Grand Prix complete, we can now see how the drivers will line up on the Albert Park grid. Sebastian Vettel has taken his second pole of the season, maintaining his 100% record so far. Disappointed to miss out on the top-spot, local hero Mark Webber lines up alongside in P2 ahead of Fernando Alonso and Jenson Button. Lewis Hamilton will start the grand prix in P11, the Briton struggling in qualifying but receiving the advantage of being able to start on whichever tyres he chooses. Nico Rosberg out-qualified team mate Michael Schumacher and Lotus lead the new teams with Heikki Kovalainen and Jarno Trulli going P19 and P20 respectively.
