Max Verstappen
Red Bull’s Max Verstappen put in a stunning lap in qualifying to take pole ahead of Mercedes pair Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton on Saturday ahead of the Abu Dhabi Formula One Grand Prix at the YAS Marina Circuit. Verstappen managed a time of 1:35.246 seconds, beating second-placed Bottas’s 1:35.271 sec and Hamilton’s 1:35.332 sec.
The top three are separated by 0.086s. This is Verstappen’s first pole of the season and the first time since 2014 that Mercedes have not managed a one-two at the end of Q3 in Abu Dhabi.
McLaren’s Lando Norris took fourth place, just 0.25 sec behind pole, while Verstappen’s team mate Alex Albon too fifth. Carlos Sainz was sixth, running an older engine than his McLaren team mate which, it is believed, is costing him around two tenths of a second per lap, ahead of AlphaTauri’s Daniil Kvyat.
