Max Verstappen had to deal with bad luck again during qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix. In the closing stages of the race, the Dutchman lost speed. It was eventually Charles Leclerc who ran off with the pole position.
Carlos Sainz and George Russell will start from the second row of the grid, with Sergio Perez and Lewis Hamilton behind them on the third row. Leclerc spun during his first run of Q3, but the Monegasque eventually managed to come back strongly. Verstappen presumably suffered from a DRS problem, which prevented the Dutchman from setting a fast lap in the final stint.
Strong result Schumacher
Mick Schumacher managed to reach Q3 for the first time after Lando Norris ' lap time was removed in Q2 due to track limits. Valtteri Bottas, Kevin Magnussen and Daniel Ricciardo completed the top ten.
