We noticed that Maldonado and Räikkönen had exactly the same times in Q2: 1:13.698. What would be decided if that happened in Q3? Especially if 2 drivers had the exact same time for the Pole position, it would be interesting.

@Palle Whoever set the time first would be ahead.
This happened during qualifying for the 1997 European Grand Prix at Jerez: Jacques Villeneuve, Michael Schumacher and Heinz-Harald Frentzen set times of 1’21.072, identical to within one thousandth of a second, so they lined up in that order in first, second and third on the grid.

As the track is usually improving over a session this seems fair.
