HIGHLIGHTS: Watch the British GP Qualifying action as Verstappen snatches pole in thrilling session
Red Bull's Max Verstappen will start from pole position for the British Grand Prix after a last-gasp effort beat the McLaren duo.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen claimed a last-gasp pole position for the British Grand Prix following a scintillating Qualifying session at Silverstone.
The four-time and reigning World Champion posted a 1m 24.892s with his final lap, leaving him just over one-tenth clear of McLaren pairing Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, with Mercedes' George Russell only fractions further back.
Briton Lewis Hamilton finished fifth, just two-tenths shy of Verstappen after losing time through the final sequence of corners but will start directly ahead of Ferrari team mate, Charles Leclerc.
The session was red-flagged during Q1 after Franco Colapinto's Alpine found the barrier at the final corner, with the Argentinean racer rejoining before coming to a halt at the start of the lap.
