Wittmann flies to Macau pole

Marco Wittmann grabbed pole position for the Macau Grand Prix with a stunning late effort in qualifying on Friday. The German, who had been quickest in the morning practice session, was locked in a major battle with Robert Merhi throughout the 30-minute fight for grid positions. Merhi appeared to have stolen the top spot in the closing stages, but Wittmann saved his best for last to steal pole position by just 0.064 seconds.
