Charles Leclerc will start from pole position for the Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix. Here's how and when you can watch the race.
The Ferrari driver inherited pole for a second consecutive year at Spa-Francorchamps, as Max Verstappen topped qualifying but, with his 10-place grid penalty for an engine change, it drops him down to 11th.
Leclerc will be joined on the front row by Sergio Perez, who scraped through Q2 by 0.003s clear of Alex Albon, only to launch himself close to a provisional pole after Verstappen’s penalty, only to be pipped by Leclerc’s final lap.
Despite abandoning a Mercedes floor update, Lewis Hamilton will start third on the grid ahead of McLaren pair Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, while George Russell is set to start sixth in the sister Mercedes.
Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz will line up seventh with Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso eighth, ahead of Esteban Ocon (Alpine) and Albon (Williams) also in front of Verstappen.
