Hamilton had a big moment on the way to pole: "I had my heart in my throat!"

Lewis Hamilton has taken pole position in an impressive way for the Styrian Grand Prix. He had to brave a soaking Red Bull Ring. From the first to the last part of qualifying it kept raining hard. Actually it's a miracle that the session could go on at all.

He told Sky Sports: "If I'm honest. What a difficult day. The weather was very difficult. Sometimes you can't even see where you're going. I had a huge moment. I had my heart in my throat. In the end I was able to drive a good round. I love days like this!
