Nico Rosberg will start from pole position for Sunday's Russian Grand Prix after a mistake left Lewis Hamilton second on the grid.

Nico Rosberg will start from pole position for Sunday's Russian Grand Prix after a mistake left Lewis Hamilton second on the grid.

On his first run in Q3, Hamilton was one third of a second slower than his championship rival, but the Briton pulled out of his second flying lap running wide at Turn 13.

That meant that Rosberg, who finished second at the Japanese Grand Prix last time out after starting from pole, was able to coast back to the pit lane, confident that the rest of the grid was unable to match the pace of Mercedes over one lap.

Jenson Button, who has committed to another season in F1 for 2016, managed to out-qualify McLaren teammate Fernando Alonso and will start the race from 13th on the grid at the Black Sea resort.

Daniil Kyvat was unable to make the top-10 shootout at his home grand prix, with the Red Bull driver being knocked out in Q2.

Carlos Sainz Jr did not participate in qualifying following a heavy crash in free practice on Saturday morning, which saw the Spaniard taken to hospital. However, the Toro Rosso driver is still hopeful of taking part in Sunday's race.
