One heck of a session there, and an exciting race to look forward to tomorrow! F1 MiamiGP Formula1
Sergio Perez has taken pole position in a frenetic qualifying session for the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday, with Fernando Alonso alongside him on the front row.
A tank-slapper for Q1 for Nico Hulkenberg out of Turn 16 was an early reminder of how the Miami International Autodrome could punish the drivers on Saturday, with the Haas driver missing the wall by a matter of centimetres in the opening minutes. The tightness of the chasing pack behind Red Bull and Ferrari on show in FP3 carried on into Q1 as well, with the track improving all the time and only small gaps between the eight teams behind the front-runners.
Sergio Perez, meanwhile, as he did in Azerbaijan last weekend, nudged the wall while on a flying lap, grazing the wall at Turn 4 while looking the other way – no harm done though, as he was able to carry on.Rumours of Brad Pitt driving F1 car at Silverstone for Lewis Hamilton-linked film dispelled The seven-time World Champion will line up only 13th on the grid, the first time he has qualified lower than the top six in any American race in his career, with Alex Albon, Nico Hulkenberg, Zhou Guanyu and Nyck de Vries also dropping out.
