00:00Confirmation that's Verstappen's qualifying session over. Because he's got an injured penalty, he is at the back.

00:07Oh, as Giovinazzi spins and very nearly gets collected by Charles Leclerc.

00:13Coming out of turn 16, there goes Giovinazzi spinning around.

00:18And you can just see how close that was, but Leclerc are not all the right bits of the track compared to Giovinazzi.

00:24It's another Q1 knockout for Kimi Raikkonen, only 16th fastest. Now Mick Schumacher across the line stays down in 17th.

00:32So Paul qualifying for him as Alonso goes 7th fastest and just ahead of Carlos Sainz.

00:37And Hamilton, as expected, with those first purple sectors, first and second sectors, goes quickest overall.

00:43Yuki Tsunoda next across the line. He's still at risk. He's only 15th.

00:47Can Nikita Mazepin get his hat out of the bottom five? The answer is no.

00:51He's 19th and slowest because Verstappen didn't set a time. And that should be that.

00:56We have lost Kimi, we have lost Mick, we've lost Antonio, Nikita and Max,

01:02who was expected to be out in that bottom five because he didn't set a time and didn't need to.

01:08That is Charles Leclerc, who, like Max Verstappen, walking away from this qualifying session,

01:13and we won't see him setting a time.

01:16What's going to happen here?

01:18Yeah, the f***ing Williams, is he killing me?

01:20I know, it's a joke.

01:21Yeah, f***ing Williams, what the hell is he doing?

01:23Fernando Alonso goes third fastest and George Russell now has got two more corners to try and ace,

01:32to get that Williams up a couple of places and into Q3 once again.

01:37Out of the final corner comes George Russell and he does make it into the top ten,

01:41pushes Sebastian Vettel out of it and gets another big round of applause from his mates down at Williams.

01:47Yuki Tsunoda will be next to cross the line.

01:49Can he put himself and his AlphaTauri into Q3 for the first time here in Formula One?

01:54No, he stays exactly where he is.

01:56And Pierre Gasly, who's made a habit of Q3 so far this season, is going to be with him.

02:01K11, we're out.

02:04No way!

02:06Five hundredths.

02:07Oh f***ing way!

02:09Oh!

02:10Disappointing session that for the two AlphaTauris and Carlos Sainz makes it through by five one hundredths of a second.

02:21One forty-four seven for Valtteri Bottas but we could be very much in that crossover zone now

02:31as Lewis Hamilton goes seven tenths faster than his teammate.

02:35He's found a lot more grip out there.

02:37Everyone is on the intermediate tyres as it stands and Lance Stroll has just put in the best first sector time

02:44but has lost about six tenths of a second to Hamilton through the middle sector.

02:49Perez crosses the line fifth fastest, Stroll third fastest behind Bottas.

02:54On days like this, never discount Lance Stroll from a very good qualifying.

02:59He seems to like it in the wet and got his first pole, of course, in very similar conditions in Turkey

03:04in last time out when we went to Istanbul Park.

03:08I think Lando Norris would be a good bet as well if he could get on a set of slicks.

03:12You know, he works the tyres.

03:13He was the first one to try and spare, remember, and he gets himself up to P2, so why not?

03:18Soft tyres for George Russell.

03:20Get through here, keep the temperature in them, and that's the thing is just don't let the temperature come out the surface.

03:29Right, here we go, George Russell, time-lap on the slick tyres.

03:32First driver to go for a time-lap as Lewis Hamilton comes into the pit and hits the wall.

03:38Now, it's only 60 kilometres an hour, but it's such a tight pit lane entrance.

03:43And Lewis Hamilton, even before they put the slick tyres on, has bashed the wall and...

03:48Just hit the wall, man. Hit the wall.

03:51Drama for Lewis Hamilton for the second year running and qualifying here in Russia.

03:56Carlos Sainz, never been on pole before in his Formula One career, is absolutely flying out there.

04:03Sainz goes onto pole position with a 1.42.5 Ferrari on pole here in Sochi.

04:10But who's got pace behind him?

04:12Lando Norris has got a middle sector to be proud of.

04:15Lewis Hamilton is not going to improve on the front row.

04:19He couldn't get the time he wanted.

04:21Ricciardo goes third fastest.

04:23Lando Norris crosses the line.

04:25Lando Norris is on pole for the first time in his Formula One career, unless someone can deny him.

04:31Fernando Alonso is out there.

04:33He's trying his hardest.

04:35Lewis Hamilton stopped on the track.

04:37George Russell goes third fastest.

04:39What a lap from George Russell.

04:41Lewis Hamilton has spun on his final flying lap.

04:45Fernando Alonso crosses the line, sixth fastest overall.

04:48But a race after they got their first 1-2 since Canada 2010.

04:55McLaren and Lando Norris are back, winning, qualifying and getting pole position.

05:02Okay.

05:03Pole position, mate.

05:05Pole position.

05:11Oh, baby.

05:12Oh, my God.

05:13Let's go.

05:15Oh.

05:18Yes.

05:19Absolutely outstanding.

05:21And you have to say, Hamilton's got only himself to blame.

05:25He stuck it in the wall, in the pits, and that's cost him and Bottas a good starting position because they didn't have two laps.

05:32And he had to let everybody else pass when he was on his out lap and couldn't get temperature.

05:37What a dramatic end to qualifying that was.

05:40Just after the party celebrations had died down after Monza.

05:44Well, they can start to whoop and cheer with delight at McLaren again.

05:48Lando Norris recorded his best ever finish, didn't he, at Monza?

05:52And now he takes pole position.

05:54First career front row start.

05:57Lando Norris, the 102nd driver to take a pole position in Formula One.

06:02Let's go.

06:03That was a problem with a корпus of theBOs.

06:05And now he has the two partying.

06:06And now he is at the moment, and I will keep the plane and the belt away from the remaining.

06:08We'll keep the plane and the belt away from the limit.

06:09So, where he'll keep the plane and the left leg and the next step up?

06:11They'll keep the plane and the next step up.

06:12And now, the train is going to be the first time we meet.

06:13We're at the moment where we think of the plane, the day on the flying and the air.

06:14We'll be at the end and the time we meet, and then see them back.

06:15Oh my god.

06:16And now, on the Fangio, the trailer's got a big chance of a trophy from the bait.

06:17One of all thearten, we'll be at the moment.
