It was another table-topping performance from Max Verstappen during the Sprint Shootout at the Belgian Grand Prix as he again made the most of the changeable weather conditions.
In a second successive session that started in the wet and gradually dried up, Verstappen worked his way down to a time of 1m 49.056s in the decisive SQ3 phase, pipping McLaren’s Oscar Piastri by 0.011s.
