Hamilton blames his car's setup for pole failure in Abu Dhabi

"Lewis Hamilton revealed a set-up change on his Mercedes left him at a disadvantage after missing out on pole position in Abu Dhabi.

However he expects to be closer to team mate Nico Rosberg in the race after the pair were separted by 0.377 seconds in qualifying.

“Generally it gets a little bit better in the race but it’s been for a while now,” said Hamilton in the press conference after qualifying. “Generally just struggling on the edge with the car.”

“It was a lot more comfortable at the beginning of the year for me and as I said, coming into this weekend I tried to make some changes. It disadvantaged myself a little bit maybe with one of the things I took off the car which was of benefit. I tried to get around it but at the end of the day it wasn’t good enough.”"

Massive team screw-up causes early Q1 exit for Vettel. His lap wasn't good enough by just one hundreth of a second.

Maurizio Arrivabene: “A huge mistake on our side made it impossible for Seb to progress beyond Q1. Kimi did an outstanding job, ending the session with third best time. Tomorrow in the race we must simply give our best, in order to finish this season in style”.

Lets hope Vetttel can recover to collect some points tomorrow. At least we might see a bit of action with him coming up the field.

Another fine qualifying performance from Nico Rosberg. Goodness knows why he couldn't do this earlier in the year...
