Qualifying analysis - fuel-laden Hamilton the man to beat

Thankfully for Lewis Hamilton it was Brawn GP's Rubens Barrichello whose accident safeguarded his pole position, and not McLaren team mate Heikki Kovalainen. The Brazilian's meeting with the Turn Five wall, just as the key second runs were getting underway in the final part of Q3, and with only 26s left, ensured that nobody got to improve on their first efforts. Would Sebastian Vettel or Nico Rosberg have gone faster? We will never know?For the record, these were the fuel weights: Hamilton 660.5 kg; Vettel 651; Rosberg 657.5; Webber 654.5; Barrichello 655.5; Alonso 658; Glock 660.5; Heideld 650; Kubica 664; Kovalainen 664.5.
