Massa Takes Pole Position For Malaysian Grand Prix

Ferrari's Felipe Massa took pole position for Sunday's Malaysian Grand Prix in Sepang after posting the fastest time in Saturday's qualifying session. The Brazilian registered a time of 1 minute 35.043 seconds on the 5.543-kilometre circuit to make up for the disappointment in the opening race of the season in Australia, where he was forced to start from the back of the grid due to engine trouble. Defending world champion Fernando Alonso in a McLaren-Mercedes was second fastest in 1:35.310 followed by Australian GP winner Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari in 1:35.479 minutes. Alonso's team-mate Lewis Hamilton was fourth while Germany's Nick Heidfeld in a BMW-Sauber continued his impressive start to the 2007 season by claiming fifth place on the grid. Nico Rosberg in a Williams took sixth with Robert Kubica in the second BMW-Sauber seventh fastest. Renault had a disappointing qualifying session with last year's winner Giancarlo Fisichella and new team-mate Heikki Kovalainen both failing to qualify for the final qualifying round. Honda's poor start to the season continued as Rubens Barrichello was eliminated after the first session, registering the 19th fastest time. Jenson Button in the second Honda qualified down in 15th place. © 2007 DPA
