Lando Norris has snatched pole position from Max Verstappen during qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix. Norris grabbed his second career pole with a late run that just edged the three-time world champion. Lewis Hamilton will start third, just ahead of Mercedes teammate George Russell. Ferrari pair Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz are next.
McLaren driver Lando Norris of Britain arrives at his box during the 2nd practice session for the Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix at the Barcelona Catalunya racetrack in Montmelo, near Barcelona, Spain, Friday, June 21, 2024. The race will be held on Sunday. Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz of Spain prepares for the 3rd practice session for the Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix at the Barcelona Catalunya racetrack in Montmelo, near Barcelona, Spain, Saturday, June 22, 2024. The race will be held on Sunday.
“It was pretty much a perfect lap, so I am super, super happy,” Norris said. “We have been close the past two months, ever since Miami. We probably missed out on pole because we didn’t do that perfect lap. We made some changes on the final lap and found the room to improve.” Pole sitters have won 24 of the 33 F1 races held at the 4.6-kilometer track located just north of Barcelona.
