LIVE | Formula 1 2019 Japanese Grand Prix - Can Ferrari keep Mercedes behind?

Typhoon Hagibis has passed, but now it's time for Suzuka to experience the storm of Formula 1. It's race time! On Sunday morning, Ferrari secured their fifth consecutive pole position as Sebastian Vettel finally managed to beat teammate Charles Leclerc. Can Ferrari keep Mercedes in their mirrors? Find out on our liveblog below!

Due to the typhoon, qualifying was postponed until Sunday morning. It's a short turn around for the teams and drivers as they had less than three hours between the two sessions.

On the weekend where Mercedes could be crowned champions in the constructors' championship, Ferrari have taken a one-two at qualifying ahead of the Japanese Grand Prix.

Mercedes weren't at the races on Sunday morning in Suzuka, with Valtteri Bottas beating Lewis Hamilton to P3 and with the Aston Martin Red Bull Racing of Max Verstappen half a second behind in P5.

Should Mercedes out-score Ferrari by 15 points during the race, the Silver Arrows would take their sixth constructors' championship in a row at Suzuka, but that looks a tough task now with the two red cars starting in front of them.
