Red Bull's Max Verstappen claimed his first pole position of the season at the Formula One Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia on Saturday, with Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton joining him on the front row.
It is the first time two great rivals have shared the front row of the grid since the Hungarian Grand Prix in 2023.
Verstappen's teammate, Isack Hadjar, was third fastest but will start eighth due to a grid penalty, with championship leader Kimi Antonelli in third alongside Ferrari's Charles Leclerc.
Oscar Piastri was pipped to sixth by his teammate Lando Norris, but will move up a position as a result of Hadjar's penalty to start sixth as McLaren locked out the third row of the grid.
Antonelli rues error after feeling ‘front row was possible’ during Qualifying for Bahrain GP in Malaysia
Kimi Antonelli will line up in P3 for the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia, but the Mercedes driver felt that he could have achieved a higher position had it not been for an earlier error.
Kimi Antonelli was left feeling that more might have been possible after securing P3 in Qualifying for the Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia, with the Italian believing that he could have reached the front row had it not been for an earlier track limits violation.
After what seemed to be a tricky day for Mercedes on Friday, Antonelli looked to have bounced back by going fastest during Saturday’s third and final practice. However, the championship leader faced an additional challenge in Qualifying when his initial lap time in Q2 was deleted due to exceeding track limits.
