Heidfeld frustrated by Q2 traffic
Nick Heidfeld blamed traffic during his only qualifying run in Q2 for his disappointing position ahead of the Chinese Grand Prix. The German opted to do just one run in the second qualifying segment, but Renault team-mate Vitaly Petrov caused a red flag with two minutes to go because of a problem with his car. The incident meant all drivers were on a mad rush to set a time in the final two minutes, and many found traffic during the flying laps.
