GARAGE UPDATE: @LewisHamilton is out of #RussianGP #Quali His #F1 W07 Hybrid has suffered a recurrence of the China Power Unit failure.
Oh bugger!!!!!!
So, to be clear, Sebastian Vettel will start seventh on the grid.
As it stands, Lewis Hamilton will start 10th - but that will change if he takes a penalty for overhauling his power unit. Mercedes are not sure what needs to happen just yet.

Lewis Hamilton was short, curt and unimpressed in his interview with the press immediately after giving up on Q3.
He looked forlorn, like a kid that had been told he couldn't have a flake in his ice cream.

HAM: "I went back out in Q2 and I lost the same power as I lost in China" #Quali #RussianGP

Oh dear, Seb
Vettel is NOT happy

So Vettel tried to take Ricciardo on the inside of Turn Two. As he brakes, Kvyat goes into the back of him, jarring him into the side of Ricciardo. He almost recovers but then someone gets him again.
We hear the radio. He is so angry.
He says the F word more than any other.
"What the...!"
Oh, @Dany_Kvyat... VET: "Somebody hit me in the ******* rear! Honestly!" #RussianGP #F1

I've just watched the Vettel moment from Kvyat's cockpit.
Kvyat goes into the back of him - twice. In two successive corners.
TWICE.
Ridiculous.
Alastair Horne: Sebastian Vettel’s radio message to the pits is the best thing to have happened in #F1 all year.
Amit Mandalia: Vettel picking up front wing reminds me of when Schumacher did the same in Monaco 1999 (I believe) to make sure team got it back.
Josh Cobb: I'm calling it now: that's the best radio of the year#vettel

I thought Hamilton might just do it this time, bloody good drive though from 10th to 2nd.
Had a sneaky feeling about Raikkonen.
Vettel getting hit up the ass twice.............

I didn't get a single prediction right either @Andy McDonnell
If I had got Hamilton and Rosberg the right way round, I would have been quids in.
