Max Verstappen will begin the F1 Qa🔥t♉ar Grand Prix on pole position.
The two Mercedes drivers are right behind him but the team have played down their cha𓃲nces of upsetting Red Bull. Do they have a chance?
Lando Norris' track limit violations in qualifying mean a front row start evaporated🌜, and he will instead begin in 10th, hampering McLaren's hopes. Oscar Piastri will start sixth.
Ferrari - the only team to interrupt Red Bull's w♓inning streak this year - have Charles Leclerc fifth and Carlos Sainz 1𝔉2th.
Keep an eye on the underꦅ pressure Lance Stroll who is way down in 16th.
