Perez and Fernando Alonso take the second row. Alonso seemed to be on his way to a better classification, but fell just short in the last sector. The Spaniard was still faster than the McLaren duo, though. Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris were together on the third row of the grid. Piastri was faster than his more experienced teammate.

Where does Bearman start the 2024 Saudi Arabia Grand Prix?

Mercedes had a somewhat disappointing qualifying session. As a result, George Russell and Lewis Hamilton will start the race from seventh and eighth place, respectively. That is still ahead of Yuki Tsunoda and Lance Stroll, though. Tsunoda got through to Q3, unlike teammate Daniel Ricciardo.

In qualifying, all attention was on Oliver Bearman. The young Briton was the replacement for Carlos Sainz and managed to leave a good impression. In his first F1 qualifying, he finished 11th. Bearman will start the race on Sunday alongside Alexander Albon.
