Isack Hadjar qualified just a tenth behind Max Verstappen for the Canadian GP Sprint in Montreal.
Isack Hadjar is encouraged by his improved performance in Sprint Qualifying compared to Max Verstappen at the Canadian GP, finishing just 0.101s behind the Dutchman on the grid.
This marks the smallest time gap between the two drivers in Sprint Qualifying so far this season, with Verstappen having a larger advantage in previous races such as China and Miami.
Hadjar attributes his stronger showing to a slow but steady progression throughout the day in the difficult Red Bull RB22, ultimately achieving a competitive lap time in qualifying.
Despite the close gap to his teammate, Hadjar acknowledges that both drivers are struggling with the handling of the car due to track conditions, hindering their ability to fully utilize the available grip.
