Formula 1 – Miami Grand Prix qualifying LIVE: Start time, leaderboard and lap-by-lap

And now we’re off with Q2!

Considering Bottas finished 0.010 behind and Sargeant was 0.034 behind, this could be an equally close quali session

These cars have been eliminated in Q1

Zhou may have been dropped even if he wasn’t three-tenths slower than Alonso in P15 as the stewards are investigating him for some kind of infraction.

Disappointment for Daniel Ricciardo, but it will sting even more for Valterri Bottas and Logan Sargeant – who each finished less than a tenth behind P15.

And with that, these are the cars making it through to Q2

  1. VER
  2. PER
  3. NOR
  4. SAI
  5. GAS
  6. PIA
  7. LEC
  8. RUS
  9. HAM
  10. STR
  11. OCO
  12. TSU
  13. ALB
  14. HUL
  15. ALO

Daniel Ricciardo wants a penalty for someone on Sauber

The Australian believes that Guanyu Zhou cut him off as he was getting ready to drive down the pit straight.

His race engineer calms him down by saying that they’ll look into a possible penalty for them.

We’re underway with Q1!

A Williams leads us out as we get started with qualifying in Miami

Just under two minutes to go before the race begins

Can anyone stop Max Verstappen’s five-race streak (at least, five races this year) of qualifying on pole?

Drivers are getting ready for the quali session

It should be an exciting one, especially after the craziness of the sprint from earlier in the day

So how about the blue paint on the Ferrari this week?

Idk about you, but I like the overalls and think the outfit in general looks slick.

The livery?…. that’s a different story

One of the more surprising finishes in that sprint race: Logan Sargeant in P10

It’s a positive for the Williams man, who we spoke to earlier this week.

You can read the exclusive sit-down interview he had with the Mail here:

The result might not have been a surprise – with Max Verstappen winning – but crashes jumbled the order of the grid.
