Vershtapen uncatchable on the track by rivals, but the Dutch pilot is penalized

Max Verstappen with Red Bull secured "pole position" this afternoon at the Belgian track of SPA, where the next Formula 1 world race takes place on Sunday. The Dutch pilot, the reigning world champion, gave a time of 1'46"168, being uncatchable on the track by rivals. He was 8 tenths faster than Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, who finished second.

However, the Monegasque of the "red head" will start Sunday's race from the first place, as Vershtapen has been penalized with 5 positions, for changing the gearbox. Leclerc will share the starting line with Mexican Sergio Perez with Red Bull, who finished third today. Today's tests started on a wet track, but it dried up as the minutes went by.

Thus, Verstappen will start Sunday's race from sixth place, while Luis Hamilton (Mercedes), Carlos Sainz (Ferrari) and Oskar Piastri (McLaren) will be in front of him at the start. Lando Norris, George Russell, Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll were also ranked in the "top-10". On Saturday, the "sprint race" will take place, which is expected to take place on a wet track.
