Max Verstappen, is looking to continue his dominance in the sport, and that was not a foregone conclusion on Friday after encouraging signs from other teams in practice.

However, Verstappen was able to finish 0.228 seconds ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, suggesting that he could cruise to victory in Saturday’s race.

The gap between the chasing pack was far closer, with George Russell in his Mercedes edging out Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz Jr. and Red Bull’s Sergio Perez.

Furthermore, Fernando Alonso was an impressive sixth in the Aston Martin, starting ahead of the McLaren duo of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri.

There was disappointment for Lewis Hamilton, who is only ninth, with Haas driver Nico Hulkenberg almost a second further back in completing the top 10.

In conclusion, Aston Martin’s Lance Stroll was the notable name to drop out of Q2 and will start in 12th, with Alpine as the back-markers and Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly starting behind the Williams of Logan Sargeant.
