Max Verstappen and Lando Norris have locked out the front row of the F1 grid for a second consecutive Sunday at the Austrian GP
Max Verstappen took pole position at the Austrian Grand Prix, with Lando Norris in second, switching roles from the previous Sunday. George Russell secured the third spot on the grid after Oscar Piastri’s lap time was deleted for track limit violations. McLaren’s bid to challenge this decision was rejected due to technicalities. Several post-session stewards’ decisions had no impact on the grid, including no action against Verstappen for driving slowly. Despite grid penalties for some drivers, the race lineup saw Pierre Gasly start from 13th and both Aston Martin drivers struggle in qualifying.
