F1 Japanese Grand Prix qualifying recap
Max Verstappen continued his strong qualifying run by claiming his fourth successive pole of the season at the Suzuka circuit in Japan, with teammate Sergio Perez making it a 1-2 for Red Bull.
The Dutchman will be looking to bounce back from a DNF in Melbourne and was bullish about his prospects after finishing in first place on Saturday during qualifying.
“It was quite close at the end,” Verstappen said after the reigning champion topped the time sheets in every session, before earning pole with a 1:28.197.
“Overall, this track is very sensitive with the tyres. The tarmac is really aggressive and when you want to go to the limit it doesn’t always work out. Nevertheless, most importantly it’s to be on pole.”

Meanwhile, RB’s Yuki Tsunoda, who is the only local driver on the grid, battled hard and knocked out teammate Daniel Ricciardo in Q2. But he had to settle for P10 as he finished 1.216 behind Verstappen in the final rankings.
