Webber Beats Germans to Pole, but Will He Lead a Lap?

NÜRBURGRING, Germany — With six German drivers in the series, two of them world champions and one of them the man who <a href="http://www.bootsuksale.com/timberland-6-inch-boots-mens-c-01.html"><strong>timberland 6 inch boots mens</strong></a> won the championship last year and is dominating the current one, it would be logical if a German scored pole position in today’s qualifying session for the German Grand Prix.But sometimes driver motivation is easy to read, and things turn out otherwise. At the Australian Grand Prix this year, Mark Webber qualified in his home race third on the grid while his German Red Bull teammate Sebastian Vettel took the pole position and won the race. Here, Webber scored the pole position; Vettel will start third on the grid.Pressure for Vettel? For the first time in 15 races, he will not start a race from the front row, in the first or second position.There was a traffic jam 20 kilometers, about 12 miles, from the circuit as I drove in this morning. I cannot remember how long it has been since I have seen so many German fans at this <a href="http://www.bootsuksale.com"><strong>timberland boots uk</strong></a> race. Vettel mentioned the fans several times after qualifying, <a href="http://www.bootsuksale.com/timberland-6-inch-boots-mens-c-01.html"><strong>timberland 6 inch boots sale</strong></a> saying his first job would be to enjoy the race with all of them. The fans were a little let down by the other German world champion, Michael Schumacher, who barely made it to 10th position on the grid.The other surprise of the day was Lewis Hamilton, who placed his McLaren Mercedes in second position on the grid."As good as it gets," Hamilton said. "I definitely underestimated how good the car would be on light fuel. It was one of the happiest and most comforting laps I ever had. It felt incredible."Vettel still has a very big chance of winning the race tomorrow. Rain is predicted, and Webber has had some problems leading races out of pole position. He scored pole at the last race, the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, and <a href="http://rooyee.org/view.php?id=23397"><strong>imited Edition Breitling Replica Watches from Designwatchcopy ...</strong></a> he lost the lead at the start.In fact, Webber has not led a single lap yet this season, despite having the best car."I want to lead one lap tomorrow: the last one," he said.
