Vettel puts Ferrari on pole at Canadian Grand Prix
MONTREAL, June 9 — Sebastian Vettel put Ferrari on pole position at the Canadian Grand Prix for the second consecutive year yesterday, snatching top spot from Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton at the death.
Red Bull’s Pierre Gasly grabbed fifth on the grid and will start alongside the Mercedes of Valtteri Bottas, who could do no better than sixth after an early spin in the final session sent the Finn to the pits. It was an eventful and dramatic qualifying session as Hamilton went top with the clock counting down, only to have Vettel bump him from top spot a tick later.
After taking pole and topping two of the three practice sessions, Ferrari will hope that translates into similar performance today as they look to end Mercedes’ season-long domination on the island circuit named after Ferrari great Gilles Villeneuve.
