BUDAPEST, Hungary -- Nico Rosberg snatched pole position from teammate Lewis Hamilton at the Hungarian Grand Prix during an eventful qualifying at the Hungaroring.The session lasted twice its normal length due to a rainstorm ahead of the start and the challenge of drying conditions throughout, but pole position was decided in an unusual circumstances in the final minute. Hamilton was the quicker of the two Mercedes drivers on the first attempt in Q3, but as he came through sector two on his final flying lap he encountered Fernando Alonsos McLaren straddled across the exit kerb of Turn 9.Hamilton had to back off as a result, meaning he was not able to improve on his first run, but Rosberg was behind him on the track and the yellow flags for Alonsos spin were just clearing as he exited Turn 8 and entered Turn 9. Rosberg later said he had a very big lift when he first saw the double waved yellows on the entrance to Turn 8 but was not concerned by the threat of a stewards investigation.The improving track conditions on the final run meant Rosberg was able to go 0.143s quicker than Hamilton despite encountering traffic in the final sector.Like Hamilton, Daniel Ricciardo was also caught out by Alonsos mistake and had to abandon his lap and settle for third, while Max Verstappen got the timing wrong on his attempt and crossed the line to start his final attempt just after the chequered flag had flown. Sebastian Vettel encountered slow traffic in the final sector on his quick lap, meaning he stayed fifth ahead of an impressive lap by Carlos Sainz in the Toro Rosso. Alonso took seventh ahead of teammate Jenson Button, while Nico Hulkenberg in the Force India and Valtteri Bottas in the Williams rounded out the top ten.Hamilton only made the cut for Q2 by 0.105s over Romain Grosjean as drivers consistently improved on the damp track, which was only dry enough for slicks at the end making the timing of the lap as important as the quality of the driving. Daniil Kvyat and Sergio Perez also failed to make the cut for Q2 ahead of Kimi Raikkonen in 14th. When Raikkonen set his time he was the fastest driver up to that point, but as the 13 drivers behind him on the track all clocked their lap on the drying track they all jumped ahead of him, eliminating him for Q3. He will start ahead of Esteban Gutierrez and Felipe Nasr on the grid.Q1 was stopped four times under red flags, lasting nearly an hour before it was curtailed by just over a minute due to the final stoppage. The first red flag flew when a rainstorm hit the already-wet track, making the conditions undriveable and forcing the cars to tiptoe back to the pits. The second was caused when Marcus Ericsson lost the rear of his Sauber at Turn 8 and slammed into the barriers, but the track was drying by that point and when the session restarted a handful of drivers dared to run intermediate tyres rather than full wets. Felipe Massa was one of them and lost the rear of the car coming out of Turn 4 as he searched for grip on the exit kerb and was left wanting. He clouted the barriers on the inside, bringing out red flag number three.The session started again with five minutes left on the clock, but roughly 230 seconds later Rio Haryanto crashed into the same barrier Ericsson hit earlier in the session, bringing one of the longest Q1 sessions in memory to an end. Both Renaults were caught out by the final red flag, failing to set a time when the conditions were at their best, and therefore failing to make the cut for Q2.

A report has laid bare the woeful pay and conditions for W-League players as expectations ramp up on Football Federation Australia to improve the situation before the new season.The Professional Footballers Australia (PFA) report, which surveyed almost two-thirds of W-League players last season, suggests they could walk away from the game because of the financial strain.Nine out of 10 players said they would consider leaving the sport early to pursue more-lucrative opportunities.Thats understandable when a quarter of W-League players were paid less than $500 for the 16-week season, and 10 per cent werent paid at all.With an average cost of $2237 worn by each W-League player to take part in the league, its likely more players than not were out of pocket for their participation.Only 15 per cent earned more than $5000 for the past season, which equates to $312 a week without factoring in pre-season training.The AFL has instituted a $5000 minimum payment for the inaugural AFL Womens season, which will be run over eight weeks in February and March.Bizarrely, some W-League players are paid more for their state league commitments than by their W-League clubs.The report will inform the newly formed W--League Working Party, established last week by FFA and PFA, amid a climate of growing respect for womens sport.ddddddddddddThat committee will look at the leagues structure and format as well as club infrastructure and player conditions.PFA chief executive John Didulica said the report showed the depth of commitment the players have to their sport.The players are willing to go above and beyond to make their competition a success, he said.This research has been tabled with FFA and will be invaluable in assisting the W-League Working Party to identify the immediate priorities that need to be addressed to ensure the Westfield W-League can prosper.The poor remuneration doesnt tell the whole story, with more than a dozen Matildas players also receiving contracts for their international service.According to a News Corp Australia report, PFA would like to see at least 60 female footballers earning $60,000 each by the start of the 2017/18 season.A collective bargaining agreement, minimum player payments and minimum medical conditions are also on the working partys agenda.
