Formula One champion Sebastian Vettel roared back to form with pole position at the Hungarian Grand Prix on Saturday after his Red Bull mechanics worked through the night to get his car up to speed. The German had failed to win the last two races but made sure Red Bull snapped up their 11th pole in 11 races this season, and 12th in a row, with his eighth of the campaign and 23rd of his career.
Australian team mate Mark Webber, second in the championship but a massive 77 points behind Vettel, qualified down in sixth place. "I felt much more comfortable this morning," Vettel said. "I'm very pleased with the result, we changed a lot on the car overnight. The boys were working pretty hard and didn't get much sleep. I've got the confidence back."
The German made his trademark single finger gesture in front of the cameras after stepping out of the car to indicate he was still number one but McLaren's Jenson Button, who qualified third behind team mate Lewis Hamilton, was not impressed.
