Lando Norris on pole position, Ferrari nightmare in Las Vegas

Lando Norris ahead of everyone again in wet qualifying for the Las Vegas Grand Prix 2025. The McLaren Briton scored his seventh pole position of the year (and third in a row).

The world leader was 323 thousandths ahead of Max Verstappen and a surprising Carlos Sainz, who was even third in the Williams at 362 thousandths but ahead of George Russell’s Mercedes and especially Oscar Piastri’s other McLaren, only fifth at more than a second.

Badly for the Ferraris: Charles Leclerc did not go beyond ninth, last one Lewis Hamilton who also because of the yellow flags could not put together a good lap.

These are all the times:

1 Lando Norris McLaren 1:47.934

2 Max Verstappen Red Bull Racing +0.323

3 Carlos Sainz Williams +0.362

4 George Russell Mercedes +0.869

5 Oscar Piastri McLaren +1.027

6 Liam Lawson Racing Bulls +1.128

7 Fernando Alonso Aston Martin +1.532

8 Isack Hadjar Racing Bulls +1.620

9 Charles Leclerc Ferrari +1.938

10 Pierre Gasly Alpine +3.606
