Sebastian Vettel secured his tenth pole position this season, with Red Bull making it 13 in one season - every single race so far. It wasn't a thrill-a-minute session, but there were still stories to note throughout. Bruno Senna made it through to the top ten but didn't outqualify his teammate this week. Pastor Maldonado had a crash in Q1 but still managed to make it through to Q2 to qualify 14th.
