We have the greatest Formula One fans in the world here in Britain and there was a great turnout today, which makes the atmosphere so special.\u201d <br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>\u201cMy lap in Q3 was a lap for the fans out there around the circuit. I haven&#8217;t been feeling comfortable in the car all weekend, so I was really happy to find a good lap and this feels fantastic. The team has done a phenomenal job and it&#8217;s a great reward for the guys here at the track but also back at base, especially as our two factories are so close to the track,\u201d Hamilton added.<br \/>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut we know that tomorrow is another day and our Sunday performance isn&#8217;t quite as strong right now. Our long run pace looked ok yesterday and we were able to manage the tyres quite well. It&#8217;s going to be tough to keep Seb behind but we will give it everything we&#8217;ve got,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile Nico said that it was a \u201cfantastic team result and it&#8217;s great to see how much progress they have made together since last year.&nbsp; \u201cThe feeling of confidence that our car will be quick in qualifying is fantastic and I love going to a race knowing that we have a shot of a strong grid position.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br \/>Sebastian Vettel said he was happy with the results. \u201cWe will see what happens tomorrow. It\u2019s a long race, but I\u2019m happy with today. Either Lewis found a short cut or he has something special round here, it was a phenomenal lap and he wasn\u2019t in reach today. I was very happy with the lap I did at the end, it was very close with Mark also. We did what we could for the team and it\u2019s always nice to position well in qualifying, especially around here \u2013 qualifying is good fun and I\u2019m enjoying the high speed corners. We\u2019ll see how we get on with the tyres tomorrow and with looking after them. I\u2019m happy for the team today, our factory is very close to this track, so I\u2019m looking forward to tomorrow.\u201d<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Meanwhile Mark Webber said, \u201cWe were up against it to get on the front row against the Mercs, they\u2019re on another level as they have been for the last few events. It was disappointing to get pipped by Seb there at the end by a hundredth, it was very close. I was happy with the first part of my lap, but I could have done better in the last sector. We have a good balance for qualifying and race pace in terms of where we prioritised things. It should be an interesting race, we can get a good result from there.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-right: 6px; margin-left: 6px; float: left;\" alt=\"lewis hamilton\" src=\"images\/racing\/lewis%20hamilton.jpg\" height=\"200\" width=\"200\" \/>Silverstone:<\/strong> Lewis Hamilton got the better off his Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg and the speed of both Red Bulls driver to claim pole position for Sunday&#8217;s British Grand Prix.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, world champion German Sebastian Vettel was third quickest ahead of his team-mate Mark Webber.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[5674,4651,1983,1694],"class_list":["post-15862","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-latest","tag-british-grand-prix","tag-mark-webber","tag-nico-rosberg","tag-sebastian-vettel"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Hamilton claims pole position at British Grand Prix - IndianSportsNews.com - Latest Updated Sports News &amp; Sports Blogs of Cricket, Hockey, Golf, Football, Tennis &amp; Other Sports<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/indiansportsnews.co.in\/?p=15862\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Hamilton claims pole position at British Grand Prix - IndianSportsNews.com - Latest Updated Sports News &amp; Sports Blogs of Cricket, Hockey, Golf, Football, Tennis &amp; Other Sports\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Silverstone: Lewis Hamilton got the better off his Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg and the speed of both Red Bulls driver to claim pole position for Sunday&#039;s British Grand Prix.
