Hamilton Master-ful in qualifying at Zandvoort.

Britain's Lewis Hamilton will start from pole at the 15th Marlboro Masters of F3 tomorrow after dominating qualifying at Zandvoort.

At the end of day, the ASM F3 driver was over six tenths up on the second fastest driver in his group, Paul di Resta and three tenths ahead of his team-mate, Adrian Sutil, who set the pace in the 'even-numbered group'.

"So far, the weekend has gone quite well," said Hamilton, who currently leads the F3 Euroseries standings.

"I knew that I had to set a really fast lap to secure the pole and I'm surprised that my lead over the other teams is that big."

Sutil meanwhile was pleased to secure a place on the front of the grid - even though he was second best.

"It was my goal to qualify for the first row of the grid and I succeeded in doing so," he added. "Therefore, the result is okay for me although I didn't quite match Lewis' pace.

"Compared with last year, I'm clearly more experienced and I also drive a better car. Now it's my goal to clinch a podium finish."

Of the rest, Steven Kane was third overall in the 'odd group', while Kohei Hirate surprised many by going fourth, fractionally slower than the Lola driver - and only a hundredth up on Marcos Bonanomi, who was fifth.

In the 'even group', Lucas di Grassi was second for Manor Motorsport, with Franck Perea next up, followed by Giedo van der Garde and Alvaro Parente.

The 25-lap race will start tomorrow [Sunday] at 14.00 hours CET.
