      Formula 1 Grande Premio Petrobas Do Brasil 2011 – Race Review

      The Interlagos Circuit at Sao Paulo, the largest city in the southern hemisphere, is the last race of an eventful season. Practice and qualifying was dry but the forecast for race day was wet, so the teams had a tricky time to get set up right for the race.

      Qualifying was quite special with Vettel maintaining his supremacy with his 15th pole of the season and beating the previous record held by Nigel Mansell. Webber was consistent with getting second followed by Button, outperforming his teammate Hamilton. Rosberg did well in 6th place just behind Alonso and outperforming his teammate, Michael Schumacher, yet again.

Vettel took pole position yet again even though Hamilton beat the time in Q2 – Q3 is the one that counts. The 2 McLarens were next followed by Webber in the other Red Bull and the 2 Ferraris.  Vettel equalled Nigel Mansell’s record of 14 pole positions and the 17th time he had been on the front row this season.
