Final-corner error costs Lewis Hamilton pole at Abu Dhabi

Hamilton has been beaten to pole position for the final race of the year.

Lewis Hamilton was beaten to pole position by his Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas for Sunday's final race of the year in Abu Dhabi.

World champion Hamilton, who had appeared in ominous form for much of the weekend, was on course to steal pole in the closing moments only for a scruffy end to his last lap which included him running wide at the final corner.
