Big lock up and slide from Bourdais. He's given up so Bourdais will start 16th

Nico Rosber climbs out of his Williams and wanders over to the Williams pitwall to speak with the engineers after failing to make it through to the final part of qualifying. Nico has qualified in 15th position for tomorrow's race.
