Max Verstappen took pole position for the Chinese F1 GP, which takes place tomorrow. For the world champion and his Red Bull it is the fifth consecutive pole since the start of the season. Sergio Perez will also start on the front row with the other Red Bull. Sixth and seventh times for the Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz.
Fernando Alonso (Aston Martin) and Lando Norris (McLaren) will start on the second row on the Shanghai circuit tomorrow. Third for Oscar Piatri (McLaren) Leclerc. Today’s pole is number 37 in his career for Verstappen, who also won the Sprint race of the Chinese GP, the first of the Formula 1 world championship season, ahead of Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes and teammate Sergio Perez. The Canadian driver himself was the protagonist of the first important exclusion in the qualifying of the Chinese Formula 1 GP: Hamilton did not make it through Q1, which ended with the 18th time, due to an error at turn 14, in the final moments of the session. The second time was achieved by Charles Leclerc, behind Max Verstappen. Fourth Carlos Sainz. Only 15th Perez with the other Red Bull.
