Max Verstappen leads as he pleases, Oscar Piastri does not give up… Follow the Qatar Grand Prix

And three. Max Verstappen (Red Bull) won, on Saturday October 7, at the end of the Qatar GP sprint race, a third consecutive world champion title. But the celebration was only short-lived. Already crowned, the Dutch driver will be no less determined to win an additional race, he who breaks records one after the other. On Sunday October 8, he will start from pole position for the tenth time this season, after flying through qualifying on Friday.

But the task will not be easy. On a circuit that they know little about and which has been resurfaced since the first Grand Prix organized in 2021, the drivers struggled to get their bearings during the practice session on a track made slippery by the presence of sand. Note that one car is already a non-runner, namely that of Carlos Sainz Jr. A race to follow with live commentary.
