Mercedes starts up and then fails to launch:
Pole position is a great result for us today and to achieve it in my third race for the team is such a good feeling. Everyone’s been working really hard. It would be great to convert the position in the race tomorrow but it’s going to be a challenge and we’re realistic about how tough the race will be. I’m looking forward to it and will give it my all.

The rivalry between the two Brits has been greatly scrutinised, and with Hamilton now driving for Mercedes, things are certainly set to get interesting. This F1 infographic takes a closer look at how the former team-mates weigh up against each other.
