The time schedule for the Turkish Grand Prix looks a bit different than usual. Due to a time difference of one hour, all sessions will start one hour earlier for British viewers. What does this mean for the qualifying on Saturday?
Saturday will start with the third free practice session, which will take place between 10:00 and 11:00 UK time. Red Bull Racing will hope to have solved its problems before the third practice session. Max Verstappen, in particular, had a difficult second free practice session due to balance issues.

What time does the qualifying for the Turkish Grand Prix start?

Qualifying is scheduled to start at 13:00 UK time. For now, Lewis Hamilton seems to have the best chances for pole position, but on Sunday he will be put ten places back due to the replacement of his combustion engine.
Verstappen will be hoping to benefit from Hamilton's grid penalty. So far it seems he can at least count on the support of teammate Sergio Perez: the Mexican was positive about his second free practice session, in which he finished ahead of Verstappen. He finished on the podium with Racing Point last year, so the track seems to suit him well.
