Poll added: Kimi or Lewis?

I don't think Kimi is done yet but I can only see one more championship being added. Lewis on the other hand will be around for a good ten years yet, I think he will win this year. In the years to come it will be between him and Vettel. Vettel will win more than Lewis imo but by then I think Lewis would have won it 3-4 times.

Webber's face says it all!

Victory gallery!

Vettel secures superb pole in Italy

Heavy rain during qualifying at Monza has handed Sebastian Vettel of Toro Rosso his first ever pole position in Formula 1.

In a session that saw Lewis Hamilton qualify 15th, Kimi Raikkonen 14th and Felipe Massa 6th, the German was quickest of the field in the top ten shootout ahead of McLaren's Heikki Kovalainen.

To complete a fantastic day for the former Minardi outfit, Sebastien Bourdais was fourth - just behind Mark Webber of Red Bull.

More to follow...

Bourdais could have had 3rd too if Webber hadn't just pipped him. Disappointed in Hamilton. Could not fathom why he stayed out on inters even though they clearly weren't working. Makes for an interesting battle between him and Kimi alongside him for the race though. Loved Jackie Stewart's comments before the qualifying regarding Hamilton's unfair penalty from last week. I can always count on him to speak the truth in these matters.

What an amazing race... I watched it all and normally I just watch parts of it

I don't think anyone in F1 or anyone who watches F1 could begrudge that win... he raced unbelievabley, despite his pole I still before the race didnt think he could win it but hey I was proved wrong which is a good thing

Also good to see Kubica and Kovalinen (SP) on the podium instead of Raikkonen, Hamilton and Massa who we see all the time really yes we've seen those 2 on the podium before this year but still.

Vettel is definetly one of the nice guys of that sport.

It's between Lewis & Vettel in the rain. Ferrari, Lewis & Vettel in the dry

. New track is always to his advantage because he picks up tracks like that so he's going to be up there either way. Can't wait.

Webber must feel like a kangaroo with it's nuts cut off, knowing Vettel is in the same team next year.

Webber is already there, Vettel is going to the senior Red Bull team from Toro Rosso. The junior team is faster than the senior team, but Vettel's promotion from TR will probably change that.

So with him gone and no certainty over Bourdais (SP)'s seat who will be the Torro Rosso drivers?

Dunno, maybe Pantano from GP2. Liuzzi might come back but I think Force India may want him to race sooner or later. They have Brendon Hartley who tests for them and who is 3rd in the British Formula 3 championship atm so he may be given a run out next year. But I think Bourdais will keep his seat tho despite his problems :-/
