Bottas’s benchmark of 1:04.251 was set early in the session and gave the Finn the second pole position of his career. Vettel claimed second, safe in the knowledge main title rival Hamilton will drop to at least eighth position when his penalty is applied overnight. However, having progressed through Q2 on super-softs instead of ultra-softs, will start the grand prix on an alternate strategy to the quickest cars around him.

A BIZARRE video has emerged of a stunning presenter finding out the bare truths of swinging – with everyone in the clip completely nude.
Host Carli Bei stripped off to meet with members of a swinging community in Jamaica, for the “Naked News” streaming channel.
Standing without a thread on them, couples at the clothing-optional Hedonism II resort in Negril spoke on camera about how they got into swinging and embarrassing moments they’ve had.
Carli asked one nude couple what they ask each other once they have slept with other people.
Taking a matter of fact approach, the lady said: “We ask what we liked, what we disliked, how was the couple, is there something I could have done differently or is there something you would like to do.”
Next the TV host asked a series of partners what had happened when their swinging experiences hadn’t gone as smoothly as they imagined.
One starkers man said: “We met one couple in a bar and two hours talking and we agreed to go back to their house to have some more fun and everything changed.
“Their phone rang and they had a family emergency and they ran out the room.”

Australia is developing defences against missile attack but the US THAAD anti-missile system is “not really suitable” for Australia, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says.
When asked on Friday about a possible Australian missile defence system against such threats as a North Korean intercontinental ballistic missile, Mr Turnbull said the Australian focus was on protecting deployed forces in the field.
Speaking to reporters in Hamburg, where he’s attending the G20 summit, the prime minister said the answer to the Korean threat was the denuclearisation of North Korea.
“We are developing missile defences … but the focus is on protecting our deployed forces in the field.”
The question to Mr Turnbull was prompted by comments from former prime minister Kevin Rudd that Australia should consider deploying a missile defence system to defend against attack from a nuclear-armed North Korea.

After Federal agencies were sent into a spin this week over revelations Medicare details could be bought on the internet’s underbelly, a quick search of some of the dark web’s favourite marketplaces found some local product.
They included fake Perth Mint gold bars bearing a striking resemblance to the real thing for the equivalent of $50. The seller, said to be based in the Netherlands, boasts how buyers could “multiply your money amazingly with this system”.
“Normal people buy gold to hold it, never open the package and scratch it to verify. These are by far the best bars available and are almost indistinguishable from the real thing,” the advertisement read.
“This bar looks 100% like the original, and is without the crimping on the edges. They will pass the X-ray test but not the scratch test. I will leave it to your imagination the possibilities with these.”
A Perth Mint spokesman said the issue was “a known industry problem for many mints throughout the world”…

HAMBURG, Germany — For years the United States was the dominant force and set the agenda at the annual gathering of the leaders of the world’s largest economies.
But on Friday, when President Trump met with 19 other leaders at the Group of 20 conference, he found the United States isolated on everything from trade to climate change, and faced with the prospect of the group’s issuing a statement on Saturday that lays bare how the United States stands alone.
Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, the host of the meeting, opened it by acknowledging the differences between the United States and the rest of the countries. While “compromise can only be found if we accommodate each other’s views,” she said, “we can also say, we differ.”
Ms. Merkel also pointed out that most of the countries supported the Paris accord on climate change, while Mr. Trump has abandoned it. “It will be very interesting to see how we formulate the communiqué tomorrow and make clear that, of course, there are different opinions in this area because the United…
