"It was a little bit too much so we lost some time and didn't improve.
When asked about being called to the stewards regarding a weighbridge infringement, he added: "I think it's better if I don't say anything.
"They shouldn't call us like that, when the conditions are like that it's not fair. I wanted them to hurry up!"
"That was a tough qualifying session, the weather was going up and down," he said. "Ferrari are very quick this weekend and we did a lot of work with my engineers to make sure we were ready.
"It's great to be here in Brazil. I have Senna's design on my helmet this weekend."
On Ferrari and his chances tomorrow, he added: "They had more blistering on the supersoft than us. I'm not sure if this is correct but we wanted to be on the soft."
"Ahh, lost it," Vettel said after the lap was complete and pole had slipped away.
"Get in there mate, awesome job, that's the pole," Hamilton is told over the radio.
