Lando Norris secured pole position in a dramatic Brazilian Grand Prix qualifying session with five red flags, causing trouble for his rival Max Verstappen. Norris faced early struggles in qualifying but improved in the rain-hit Q2 and Q3 sessions, finishing ahead of surprise challenger Alex Albon. However, Albon crashed out in Q3, allowing Norris to claim pole position ahead of George Russell. Verstappen’s hopes were dashed due to a yellow flag incident involving Lance Stroll, leaving him in 12th place and facing a grid penalty. Red Bull’s sister team RB performed well with Yuki Tsunoda in third and Liam Lawson in fifth in their best-ever F1 qualifying performances.
