Full results Qatar GP Qualifying | Verstappen is at the top once more
F1 News
Max Verstappen will start on pole position on Sunday during the Qatar Grand Prix. The Red Bull Racing driver set a time in qualifying that no one could come close to. With a difference of more than four tenths, the 26-year-old Dutchman was again particularly dominant on the Losail International Circuit.
Norris seemed to be quick enough to start second on Sunday, but for the second time in Q3 the McLaren driver lost his time after he left the track with all four of his tyres. George Russell benefited from this and can therefore start from the front row.
Sergio Perez and Carlos Sainz were the biggest surprises who failed to advance to Q3. The Red Bull Racing driver initially seemed lucky with a tenth fastest time, but his time was also deleted by the race controll. Sainz - unlike teammate Charles Leclerc - achieved the 12th fastest time, also not enough for a place in the top ten.
Kevin Magnussen and Guanyu Zhou will start from the final row of the grid on Sunday. The row in front consists of Lance Stroll and Liam Lawson, who did not reach Q2 for the first time since Zandvoort.
