10th place he's finding a chunk in the middle you can check CH that Hamilton now drops down to 11th he's there with shair stroll on a good lap as well let's see if you can see it through to the end fastest of anyone in the first sector Improvement middle sector added all up and it goes to Fourth for the Aston Martin driver Lance stroll the driver at risk is car lost signs can Hamilton find the

well SS and Hamilton find themselves heading out in the second part of qualifying the bottom five hulkenberg ahead of Magnuson codre in 13th and the big story signs and Hamilton fall at the second hurdle first over the line Oscar piastri will put a Time on the board Lon noris going very quickly behind McLaren trying to do what they did in Budapest and lock out the front row piastri a 11.1 maxus stapan we're on board with the world championship leader trying to respond he's just behind Less Than 3 hundreds of a second and as Norris goes for the line he's made a bit of a mistake in the middle sector Norris across the line and ahead of piastri and ven he had enough to get ahead after that mistake in the middle part of the lap Norris piastri ven the top three Char Clair cannot get on terms with any of them he's 610 of a second behind orando Norris in The Scarlet Ferrari through the banked final Corner the 14th and final corner of this RAC track where does Russell go as he comes across the line behind the two McLarens and maxus nappen he goes to Fourth okay this is when it's all on the line 2 minutes to go pole position at the Dutch Grand Prix up for grabs can Max a stappen take it once again he's looking for a chance to step forward and the Dutch driver has has an opportunity all over the curbs there as we attack 90 seconds to go we're on board with him he's looking for a personal best in the first sector it is a personal best but it's not on terms with what the McLaren's been able to manage yeah full commitment through seven just beautiful to hear just a small lift and dragging the speed off through that turn but visibly working the wheel in these lower speed Corners let's see if he can keep it tidy yeah that was actually not a bad Drive off this middle part of the lap but Norris has lowered the lap time possible in the first sector again oh hanging on to it Max a STA and trying to scrub the speed off he's got the fastest middle sector of anyone so far can he give himself an opportunity to force the McLaren to respond for Sten hanging on to it all the way through the lap trying to make it four pole positions in a row and he's home race and that time is good enough to bring a cheer from the grand stands he will force the Clarence to respond here is Lando Norris who takes it back and then some by 3/10 of a second is Lando Norris heading to a fourth career pole position or will it be a first for Oscar piastri piastri is a little bit down in that first sector we do know there's enough of the middle part and final part of the lap to pull it back but doesn't have quite the same confidence in that highspeed section rides the curb as he runs it down into this little chican like Liv and 12 nice little camber change there again to continue the roller coaster ride that is zamort well Lando Norris looks like he's on the brink of a fourth career pole position in Formula 1 Oscar pastry is trying to join his teammate on the front row can McLaren lock out the front row or will it be v stappen no third place for Oscar pastry Max a Sten was quicker by about half a tenth of a second and it's Norris in the box seat Russell not improving in the middle part of the lap add it all together it should be a step forward for the British driver currently in P5 parz is in fourth he was Russell moves to Fourth position and it is Lando Norris and Max vaben who will resume battle on the front row in Formula 1 by the standards of this season that is a dominant Pole Position Lando Norris takes pole for the Dutch Grand Prix he's three and a half T of a second ahead for just a fourth time in Formula 1 it's Lando Norris at the front of the field lovely work what nice job and confirm that is and this is our qualifying result as Formula 1 returns and Lando Norris returns to poll position
