McLaren's Lewis Hamilton has dominated the qualifying session for the inaugural Abu Dhabi F1 Grand Prix. He starts on the front row of the grid with Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel.
“My pole lap wasn’t too aggressive,” said Lewis. “I was very smooth, and it just kept getting better and better. KERS Hybrid and the engine have been fantastic all season – and today was no exception – but it’s the chassis that has really come good lately and we’ve brought them all together this weekend to create the perfect package.
“Even more encouragingly, this is all a work-in-progress for next year – and winning tomorrow would be a perfect way to end the season and raise our expectations for 2010.
“It should be an exciting race – I just want to go out and do the job tomorrow.”
