BAKU (Reuters) – Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc took pole position at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix for the fourth year in a row on Saturday as McLaren’s title contender Lando Norris suffered a qualifying nightmare and will start 17th.
McLaren’s Oscar Piastri joined Leclerc on the front row with Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz and Red Bull’s Sergio Perez together on the second row.
Red Bull’s championship leader Max Verstappen, 62 points ahead of Norris with eight rounds remaining, qualified only sixth.
