World Cup dominator Max Verstappen will tackle the sprint race at the GP Miami on Saturday from pole position.

Without having to be completely convinced, Max Verstappen created the best possible starting position for the sprint at the start of the race weekend in Miami. “How? I’m first? The lap was terrible,” the Dutchman radioed to the pits after his fastest lap in SQ3.

The “terrible” lap (1:27.641 minutes) was enough for Verstappen to keep the competition at bay, followed by Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc and Verstappen’s Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez.

The Australian Daniel Ricciardo (Racing Bull) caused a surprise with fourth place, followed by Carlos Sainz in the second Ferrari. Sprint qualifying was disappointing for Mercedes: record world champion Lewis Hamilton came 12th, George Russell ended up right in front of him.
