Result Description
Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton delivered a stunning performance to secure pole position during Sprint Qualifying at the Chinese Grand Prix, narrowly getting the better of Red Bull rival Max Verstappen and McLaren’s Oscar Piastri.
Next up was Kimi Antonelli, around half a second down on more experienced team mate Russell, as Racing Bulls driver Yuki Tsunoda, the Williams of Alex Albon and the lead Aston Martin of Lance Stroll rounded out the top 10 positions.

Fernando Alonso just missed out on a place in SQ3 in the other Aston Martin, while Ollie Bearman bounced back from a challenging debut F1 weekend in Australia to put his Haas 12th over Williams’ Carlos Sainz, Kick Sauber’s Gabriel Bortoleto and Racing Bulls’ Isack Hadjar.

It was another tough session for Red Bull newcomer Liam Lawson, whose struggles at the season opener carried over in a painful SQ1 exit – the New Zealander’s deleted final lap time for exceeding track limits leaving him 20th and last on the Sprint grid.
