 Formula One championship leader Max Verstappen. 24 anni, handed Red Bull a home pole position for Saturday’s sprint race at the Austrian Grand Prix after Mercedes rivals Lewis Hamilton and George Russell crashed in qualifying.

The Dutch driver set his one minute 04.984 2nd lap at the end of a 2-min shootout as the red-flagged session resumed at Spielberg’s scenic Red Bull Ring.

Messrs Hamilton and then Russell had both spun off into the tire barriers in the decisive final phase of qualifying while pushing hard.

Already on provisional pole, Mr. Verstappen then fended off Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc by just 0.029 secs.

Carlos Sainz, who took his 1st F1 win less than a week ago at Silverstone, put his Ferrari third with the top 3 separated by just 0.082.

“It was a very long wait between the two runs,” said Mr. Verstappen after taking the 16th pole of his career and 3rd this season.
