Brazil 2009: The Grid

Brazil 2009: The Grid

The grid has finally been completed for the Brazilian Grand Prix after the session was deluged under heavy rain and thunderstorms. However, despite all the problems that the drivers endured around the Interlagos circuit, it was Rubens Barrichello who took pole position and will lead the field through the Senna Esses at the start of tomorrow’s race. Jenson Button struggled back in P14 and starts only two places ahead of fellow rival Sebastian Vettel who qualified in P16.

Update: Vitantonio Liuzzi had his gearbox changed after qualifying and therefore drops five places on the grid, promoting Sebastian Vettel and all those behind.
