Formula 1 - Superb Mercedes lock out front row in Spain

Nico Rosberg grabbed pole position with Lewis Hamilton second as Mercedes dominated qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix.

Mercedes had not shown their full hand in the practice sessions, but were blisteringly fast once qualifying began, taking their third straight pole position of the season, and locking out the front row for the first time since the 2012 Chinese Grand Prix.

Sebastian Vettel was third for Red Bull, ahead of the Lotus Kimi Raikkonen, with Ferrari's Fernando Alonso fifth in front of his home crowd.

Felipe Massa's final flying lap began well but faded to leave him sixth, while Romain Grosjean, Mark Webber, Sergio Perez and Paul di Resta rounded out the top 10 at the Circuit de Catalunya.
