Lotus F1 Team – Chinese GP – Saturday Qualifying

From the archive. Prices, availability and references describe the original publication date.

Lotus bounced back from a difficult Friday to perform strongly in qualifying with both drivers making their way in to Q3 and the Top Ten on the grid.

Kimi Räikkönen put in a strong performance, putting in the 5th fastest time which will see him line up 4th after Lewis Hamilton’s 5 place grid penalty.

Romain Grosjean struggled early on but squeezed through in to Q3, but then elected not to run a hot lap in Q3 and so will line up 10th.
