Charles Leclerc claimed his third pole position of the F1 2023 season after Max Verstappen had his best lap deleted for exceeding track limits.
Leclerc produced two laps good enough for pole but was briefly usurped by Verstappen in a thrilling end to Friday qualifying, only for the newly-crowned world champion to have his best lap deleted for running wide at Turn 19.That handed pole back to Leclerc, with the Ferrari driver topping qualifying for the first time since the Azerbaijan Grand Prix back in April.
Carlos Sainz was fourth in the other Ferrari, ahead of Mercedes’ George Russell, who recovered well from a difficult qualifying to secure fifth place on the grid for Sunday’s grand prix. The Alpine pair of Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon managed to outqualify Red Bull’s Sergio Perez, who failed to find a breakthrough to his inconsistent Saturday form.A lap time deletion for exceeding track limits left Daniel Ricciardo 15th on his return to action with AlphaTauri, having missed the past five races with a broken hand.It was a disastrous qualifying session for Aston Martin, who suffered a shock double Q1 elimination despite bringing a floor upgrade to Austin.
