There were opposing views in the McLaren garage, despite a front-row lockout for the Sprint on Saturday.
Oscar Piastri was “very, very happy” to earn his first P1 start in Formula 1, but even though he’ll be joined on the front row by his team-mate, Lando Norris felt he did “another bad job” in the Sprint Shootout.
“Yeah, very very happy – I might just give the FIA five minutes first to make sure I’m actually on pole!” Piastri joked after securing his pole position. With a 10-minute session added for the drivers to be able to get their eyes in before the session, Piastri said it does change how they have to drive that part of the track.
While he expressed his happiness for his team-mate in a magnanimous moment afterwards, the Briton explained that he felt fast enough to start from the very front in both qualifying sessions in Qatar so far.
