Verstappen smiles after pole position: 'Really great feeling'.

Max Verstappen is under pressure in front of his home crowd. During qualifying, the Dutchman showed he has nerves of steel, with a lightning-fast lap that put the Red Bull Racing driver on pole position!

"It's a great feeling to get pole position here. The crowd is really great here. Today was also just enjoyable, the car drove great and when the fuel level goes down, it's very cool," said Verstappen after qualifying.

"Of course we have the best position for tomorrow. Overtaking is difficult here, but I don't expect it will be an easy race. We have to do a lot of laps, the tyres are struggling because of the high speed. But today was fun and hopefully, we can do the same tomorrow", the Dutchman concluded.
