Valtteri Bottas takes the pole position at the Eifel GP qualifying session, maintaining Mercedes’ 100% pole position record at Nürburgring. Hamilton will start P2, after finishing 0.25 s behind his teammate.
Leclerc seems to be making the best of the upgrades to his SF1000, starting P4 in the race. His teammate, on the other hand, missed out on Q3 by 0.374s and will be starting P11.
Sandwiching Leclerc’s Ferrari are Red Bull’s Verstappen and Albon, who will be starting P3 and P5 respectively.
The two Renaults followed behind Albon’s Red Bull, with Ricciardo in P6 and Ocon in P7. A little over a tenth of a second behind Ocon was Norris, who will start P8, while his teammate will start P10.
Racing Point’s Sergio Perez will be starting P9, while Hülkenberg will start P20- a rather disappointing start to his return to F1 this race.
