 Karun Chandhok showed his race winning pace from last year's second race in Spa to take the top spot on his last lap in qualifying this afternoon, but a 10 place penalty from Valencia hands tomorrow's pole position to iSport teammate Bruno Senna, who had led the field during the wet session until the Indian's amazing final lap.
