The McLaren driver’s impressive performance in Q3 went unmatched, allowing him to start from the front as he aims to close the gap in the championship standings against Max Verstappen.

 

The qualifying session concluded with a dramatic turn of events when George Russell of Mercedes crashed into the wall at Turn 19, prompting double waved yellow flags.
