Technical problems for Sebastian Vett's Ferrariel in qualifying for the Formula 1 Singapore GP. The German failed to set enough time to qualify for Q2 and will start from last position. After an attempt to fix his car in the pits to replace an anti-roll bar, Vettel had to give up on the last possible lap.
"What happened? I was riding three wheelers and couldn't make it to the second round. We have to understand what happened, also for Raikkonen's car. Of course it's a pity." This is how Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel comments on the problem with an anti-roll bar on his car that will force him to start last tomorrow in the Singapore GP. “It's over for today – the German told Sky Sport – but tomorrow we have a long race with probably many safety cars and new tyres. It's not an ideal situation but we can have a good race,” he concluded
