Hungarian GP Qualy: McLaren Front Row

Lewis Hamilton, who was fastest in this morning's third practice session for the Hungarian GP, has claimed yet another pole position.

He will be joined by his McLaren teammate Heikki Kovalainen to form a McLaren-Mercedes front row for tomorrow's grand prix start. Ferrari's Felipe Massa managed to grab the third spot on the grid, while teammate Kimi Räikkönen is at a disappointing 6th.

Both Toyotas made it to the final session of the qualifying session, with Timo Glock looking dangerous after spending some time near the top of the timesheet and clinching a hard-earned 5th spot while teammate Trulli settles for a 9th.. Renault's duo Fernando Alonso and Nelson Piquet Jr were also both involved in the third round of qualifying, with Alonso taking the 5th spot while Piquet rounds up the top ten.

Robert Kubica was the sole representative of BMW in Q3 after his teammate Nick Heidfeld was eliminated in Q1, Heidfeld lamented traffic during his hot lap. "Towards the end of the lap I had one car in front which was on an out lap. He saw me and accelerated. He then overtook Sebastien Bourdais before the last corner, and then Sebastien was right in my way. I was hoping it was so obvious he would be penalised right away and I could still get into Q2," Heidfeld said. Kubica starts from the 4th spot tomorrow.

Nico Rosberg did not manage to set any time for Q2 due to hydraulic problems.
