George Russell rounded out the top five for Mercedes, Pierre Gasly sharing the third row with him with a solid showing for AlphaTauri. Unhappy throughout qualifying, Lewis Hamilton took seventh and will share row four with AlphaTauri’s Yuki Tsunoda.
Sebastian Vettel took P9 for Aston Martin with Alpine’s Fernando Alonso rounding out the top 10.
Grand prix qualifying:
Williams drivers Albon – furious that Alonso had compromised his lap – and Latifi were eliminated in 17th and 18th respectively, while Stroll stayed 19th after his crash and Schumacher rounded out the standings in P20 for Haas.
Gasly jumped to P5 to drop Aston Martin driver Vettel down to sixth, while AlphaTauri team mate Tsunoda took P7 and Mercedes’ Russell P8. A solid showing from Zhou put the Alfa Romeo ninth ahead of Alpine’s Ocon.
Qualifying 2022:
Leclerc has not managed to convert a pole into victory since the third race of the season in Australia, since when he has seen a 46-point championship lead turn into a nine-point deficit to Verstappen.
Red Bull have taken four consecutive victories in that time – but two of them have come after an engine failure that cost Leclerc victory in Spain and a strategy foul-up that dropped him from first to fourth in Monaco.
Leclerc said he was hopeful that the car upgrade Ferrari introduced in Spain would allow them to compete for victory with Red Bull on the Sunday.
