SHANGHAI (AP) Sebastian Vettel led qualifying for the Chinese Grand Prix, narrowly edging his teammate Mark Webber on Saturday to give Red Bull its fourth straight pole position of the Formula One season.

It is the first time a team has taken four consecutive pole positions since Ferrari claimed the first four in 2007. Vettel qualified a quarter of a second ahead of Webber for his third pole position of 2010.

Ferrari's Fernando Alonso qualified impressively to take third, while Mercedes' Nico Rosberg will start from fourth on Sunday, when rain is forecast.
