The session was ended a minute early after a drain cover came loose at the exit of turn 14 as Sebastian Vettel's Ferrari went over it.Mercedes have qualified on pole for every race so far this season and look set to extend that run to 12 in a row later on Saturday. The team can also clinch a record seventh successive constructors' title on Sunday if results go their way, although Red Bull's form is likely to keep them waiting at least another week.
