Qualy: Vettel grabs pole at a wet Sepang
Sebastian Vettel was probably happiest when the rain came down in Malaysia as the German secured pole position ahead of Felipe Massa.
The Red Bull racer only just made it out of Q1 as an as-yet-undisclosed problem saw both Red Bull drivers struggling for pace in the opening segment.
However, as it continued they found pace and when the rain came down it was Vettel who jumped up.
The German posted a 1:49.674 to beat Ferrari's Massa to pole position. It was Vettel's 38th career pole.
Fernando Alonso qualified in third place ahead of Lewis Hamilton, Mark Webber and Nico Rosberg.
Australian GP winner Kimi Raikkonen was seventh, joined on the fourth row by Jenson Button.
