HIGHLIGHTS: Catch all the Miami Sprint Qualifying action as Antonelli makes history with maiden pole
Share
Kimi Antonelli produced a stunning last gasp effort to snatch Sprint pole at the Miami Grand Prix weekend, becoming the youngest ever driver to start a Formula 1 race from first on the grid.
The 18-year-old Mercedes driver showed strong pace throughout an eventful session before delivering a 1m 26.482s, which was enough to beat the McLarens of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris by 0.045s and 0.100s respectively.
Red Bull’s Max Verstappen will join Norris on the second row for Saturday’s 19-lap race, ahead of Mercedes’ George Russell. Charles Leclerc edged Ferrari team mate Lewis Hamilton to sixth while Alex Albon, Isack Hadjar and Fernando Alonso completed the top 10.
The session proved to be messy at times with teams making miscalculations when timing their flying lap runs. A frustrated Jack Doohan was among those to miss out in SQ1 for Alpine alongside Red Bull’s Yuki Tsunoda. The pair will start tomorrow’s race from 17th and 18th respectively.
