German GP: Qualifying - Re-Cap & Results

Qualifying - Re-Cap

After another scorcher of a session and a horrible crash from Lewis Hamilton, we have the grid for the 2014 German GP. - For how Qualifying works, go check out one of our previous Qualifying re-caps!

During Q1 Lewis had a massive crash when he had a brake failure. While he's okay and just has a few bruises, he was unable to take part in the further of the session. As of now, Mercedes has confirmed Hamilton's car needed a gearbox change. He's now been given a 5-Place-Grid Penalty and will start 20th, which moves Esteban Gutierrez up a spot after his 3-Place-Grid-Penalty from the clash with Maldonado in Great Britain.

Marcus Ericsson did not participate in Qualifying due to a hydraulics issue that he suffered in Free Practice 3. He's likely to start from Pit-Lane.

It was Hamilton's team-mate, Nico Rosberg who took pole at the end of Q3, and here's how the rest of the Grid plays out. Of course, it is subject to change if there are any last minute penalties. We will update you on everything pre-race on our twitter @F1Insider78 and then we'll do our usual race wrap-up afterwards! So make sure you're following us.
