Ferrari's Carlos Sainz will start second in Sunday's race.

“To come back and grab pole 24 hours later it’s just such a feeling. I know what we went through last night. It was a disastrous day, we think there were many reasons why, they added up to make us over a second off the pace. There’s no points for qualifying but I guess given this result for all us it’s pretty huge.”

Russell will be joined on the front row of the grid by Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz, who panned his Q3 lap as “nothing special,” while 2022 pole king Charles Leclerc was an atypically subdued third, admitting he “struggled massively” with tires in the final shootout.It was nonetheless a bittersweet day for Mercedes. and a very bad one for Red Bull Racing.

“It is huge for the team, we don’t know where the pace all of a sudden came from, it came from nowhere, that’s a huge positive,” he said. “I’ll do what I can tomorrow to support him, he should be able to win from that position at this track, and I’ll try and work my way up.” Verstappen locked up on his first Q3 push lap, leaving him only seventh, before a power unit problem manifested itself as he prepared for his final hot lap.
