Max Verstappen romped to pole position for the Spanish Grand Prix in a session which took several scalps and saw Lewis Hamilton and George Russell collide with each other.
The home fans were hoping Fernando Alonso would end his pole drought on Saturday, but it was the other Spaniard who came closest to pole with Carlos Sainz second quickest. And Lando Norris put aside a poor start to the season for McLaren to put his car third on the grid.
Hamilton managed fifth behind Pierre Gasly after the collision with Russell in Q2. It damaged his front wing which needed replacing before the final part of the session and left the seven-time world champion very unimpressed with his team-mate.
