Red Bull started the weekend under a cloud. The FIA had banned the engine map they used in Germany and they faced questions over a further request from the governing body to change another part of their car to ensure its compliance with the rules.

The RB8s didn't look especially quick on Friday, and Mark Webber failed to reach Q3 on Saturday.

But team mate Sebastian Vettel, who took pole position at the track in 2010 and 2011, put his Red Bull third on the grid.

Lewis Hamilton, Friday practice
