Quote:

Red Bull's Mark Webber qualified on pole for the first time after a rain-affected qualifying session for the German Grand Prix at the Nurburgring.
The Australian clocked one minute 32.230 to finish ahead of Brawn GP's Rubens Barrichello and Jenson Button.
Sebastian Vettel was fourth in the second Red Bull as the unpredictable weather made for a thrilling afternoon.
The improving McLaren of Lewis Hamilton will start fifth, equalling his best qualifying performance of the season.
The reigning world champion last started inside the top six in Bahrain and his performance on Saturday was just reward for his team who have worked tirelessly to get a new floor, new top bodywork and front wing onto his car...
