Verstappen dominated Saturday's qualifying session by setting a time over six tenths quicker than second-placed Carlos Sainz but will cede pole to the Ferrari driver because of an engine-related grid penalty.
As Verstappen outqualified the five other drivers who are relegated to the back of the grid for exceeding the power unit allowance, the damage of Verstappen's engine change is limited to a 15th place on the grid, ahead of the second Ferrari of Charles Leclerc.
