Hamilton starts second and Norris third
Red Bull’s Max Verstappen landed a big blow in his winner-takes-all title battle with Lewis Hamilton by seizing pole position for the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on Saturday.
Mercedes’ seven-time World champion Hamilton will line up alongside on the front row, with Verstappen on the quicker soft tyres for the start and the Briton going for the more durable mediums. “I didn’t expect that, but amazing job, guys,” said the Dutch 24-year-old over the team radio after being told he had secured pole.
