Qualifying under the lights at the F1 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Saudi Arabian Grand Prix did not disappoin𒅌t with drama throughout and an incredibly tight battle for pole position decided by the finest of margins.

Here are our winners and🍬 loser🍎s from a pulsating qualifying in Jeddah…

Winner - Max Verstappen

Not one, but two stunning laps from 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen. Despite carrying more fuel on his first flyer of Q3, the Dutchman was somehow able to pip McLaren’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri’s pre-red flag benchmark by just 0.001s.

Piastri𒅌 would go on to reclaim top spot before Verstappen usurped him with a sublime final run as the four-time world champion once again made the difference to snatch an unlikely pole away from the qualifying favourites.

Loser - Lando Norris

This was a bruising night for168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Lando Norris as the F1 world cꦰhampionship leader suffered a major early blow to his title aspirations.

Norris crashed heavily when he lost control of his McLaren over a kerb at Turn 5 d🐭uring his first flying lap of Q3 and slewed into the bar꧋rier, sustaining substantial damage which eliminated him on the spot.

The Briton berated himself as a “f****🎶** idiot” for the accident which leaves him a lowly 10th on the grid and starin💧g at the very likely scenario that he will lose his points advantage.

Winner - Charles Leclerc

Although 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc continues to be left frustrated by Ferrari’s deficit to the leaders in F1 2025, he can take 🍷satisfaction from theဣ fact he once again squeezed everything from his SF-25.

Leclerc dragged his Ferrari to fourth in qualifying in Jeddah, behind only Verstappen, Piastri and Mercedes’ 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell. 𓆉What concerned him though was the sizeable 0.376s gap to pole positionꦚ.

Despite the tricky car at 𝐆his disposal, Leclerc con💦tinues to underline his prowess over a single lap, and hold the edge over his new teammate.

Loser - Lewis Hamilton

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton’s difficult patch show💜s l🐟ittle sign of stopping as he could only manage seventh in qualifying, having scraped through Q1 and Q2.

A whole second away from pole, Hamilton also lagged more than half a second - and three places - behind Leclerc as his qualifying woes continued in Jeddah. The seven-time world champion admitted he is stꦛruggling to “bond” with his Ferrari car and his set-up choices do not appear to helping.

Having felt like he haღd made progress in Bahrain, it’s back to the drawing board for Hamilton.

Winner - Carlos Sainz

Another impressive qualifying display from168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Carlos Sainz, who claimed an excellent sixt꧅h on the grid as the sole Q3 runner ꩵfor Williams.

Sainz’s brilliant late Q3 effort pipped Hamilton to see him outpace his Ferra🍰ri rep🐎lacement for the second consecutive weekend.

After being frustrated to miss out on points last time out in Bahrain, Sainಞz will beꦐ determined to convert his lofty grid position into a top-10 finish on Sunday.

Loser - Jack Doohan

After an encouraging showing in Bahrain, it ended up being a disappointing qualifying for168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Jack Doohan.

Doohan was dumped out in Q1 with a time only good enough for 17th, whil💮e his teammate contin📖ued to star in the other Alpine.

Winner - Pierre Gasly

The Alpine clearly has some pace in the hands of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly, who once again extracted the maximum𒆙 out of his car to bag another top-10 starting spot.

Other than ไbeing beaten by Sainz’s Williams, Gasly was ‘best of the rest’ behind the leadiꦉng pack and will even start ahead of Norris as he aims to make it back-to-back points finishes in the Middle East.

Loser - Esteban Ocon

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Esteban Ocon undﷺer♍whelmed as he ended up 19th for Haas and watched his rookie teammate progress to Q2 and take 15th while he failed to make the cut.

Winner - Liam Lawson

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson claimed his best starting position of the season so far with 12th in his Racing Bulls car, having fallen a♍ tenth shy of making Q3 for the first time.

💙Lawson also got the better of a teammate in qualifying for the first time in 10 races, ending the second-longest losing streak of any driver on a Saturday.

A timely statement performance✱ from the Kiwi after his brutal start to 2025. 

Loser - Sauber

A poor qualifying for Sauber as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg and168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Gabriel Bortoleto slumped to 18th and 20th respectively.

Bortoleto was left apologising to his te🔯am for a big spin down at Turn 1 which ruined his hopes of achieving a better result.&ꦿnbsp;
