Lando Norris beats Max Verstappen to pole position for the F1 Spanish Grand Prix.
Verstappen appeared to be on course to claim his eighth pole in 10 races after setting a searing pace in the first runs of Q3, but Norris snatched it at the very end with a brilliant lap to pip the reigning world champion by just 0.020s.It marks the 24-year-old Briton’s second career F1 pole, and he will be aiming to convert it into his second victory following his maiden triumph in Miami.
Lewis Hamilton claimed his best qualifying result of 2024 so far in third, 0.320s adrift of Norris, as he out qualified Mercedes teammate George Russell for only the second time this season. Red Bull’s Sergio Perez could only manage a time good enough for eighth, but the Mexican will drop three places for Sunday’s Spanish Grand Prix, leaving him 11th on the grid.
Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso could not reach Q3 and ended up 11th-quickest, while Valtteri Bottas secured a strong 12th for Sauber.
