En Bruno Senna pakt pole en schrijft bijna gelijk zijn wagen af:
Bruno Senna took an amazing pole position for Saturday's GP2 Series feature race by setting the fastest time and then crashing just split-seconds later - bringing back memories of his uncle Ayrton 17 years ago.
Senna beat home hero Romain Grosjean (ART Grand Prix) to pole position by just 0.037s, but in doing so booted his car out of the final chicane.
His iSport machine got into a tank-slapper, and although he saved the car from hitting the wall head-on, he removed the right-rear corner, and rear wing, against the tyre wall that juts out on the right-side of the track.
Senna had spun at the same place in free practice this morning, and evidently worked out that the fastest way to finish the lap was by nailing the throttle after jumping the kerbs - just like his uncle Ayrton did in qualifying here in 1991, spinning across the finish line.
Senna has now left his iSport crew with a rebuilding job overnight.
Winning is driving as slow as possible but staying ahead of the rest.
