The <b>Red Bull<\/b> star clocked <b>1:48.257<\/b> to bump <b>Sainz<\/b> into second spot. But <b>Norris<\/b> saved his best for last. The <b>McLaren<\/b> driver&#8217;s <b>1:47.934<\/b> was incredibly quick for such slippery conditions.

I didn&#8217;t know no-one else was going to get a lap after me. I knew I felt like the first two sectors were good but it&#8217;s so slippery out there. As soon as you hit the kerb a little bit wrong like I did, you snap one way, you lose the car the other way, close to hitting the wall but good enough for P1 today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<footer style='margin-top: 10px;font-style: normal;font-size: 0.9em'>\u2014 <b>Lando Norris<\/b>, Pole Position Winner<\/footer>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>Why Sainz&#8217;s Performance Matters<\/h2>\n<p><b>Sainz<\/b>&#8216;s impressive qualifying run shows he&#8217;s thriving at <b>Williams<\/b> right now.

This performance confirms he still has it. Third position gives him a solid shot at points today.
