Lando Norris is on pole for the Brazilian Grand Prix
after an incredibly chaotic qualifying session at the Interlagos circuit.
He will be joined on the front row by Mercedes driver George
Russell in a very mixed up grid in Brazil. Only 19 drivers started the race as
Williams announced they were unable to fix Alex Albon’s car in time following a
big shunt.
Lando Norris on pole at Interlagos for Brazilian Grand
Prix
After the all-British front row it will be two drivers who
are operating in some very lofty positions with Yuki Tsunoda and Esteban Ocon
forming a shock second row on the Interlagos grid.
Directly behind them will be Liam Lawson, who also massively
impressed in the crazy session, and Charles Leclerc in P6 who was struggling
for pace throughout.
Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll both qualified in the top
10 on paper, but both could be facing pit lane starts after they all crashed
out. Alex Albon, who had qualified P7, would actually miss the Grand Prix
altogether due to the damage sustained to his car following a big crash at the
Senna esses. Williams were simply unable to fix his car in time.
Max Verstappen, meanwhile, will start in P17 after the timing of the red flag follow Lance Stroll’s crash in Q2 ensured he was unable to improve on his time and rescue the situation.
