Leclerc and Hamilton will start behind Gasly and Russell
Oscar Piastri has been penalized with a three-position grid drop for blocking Liam Lawson in Q2.
The McLaren driver found himself in a difficult to manage situation when he entered the first chicane on the formation lap while Lawson was approaching at full speed behind him.
Inevitable was the three-position penalty for impeding. The McLaren driver drops to sixth position and the Ferraris, both moving up one position, will both be on the second row with Charles Leclerc third and Lewis Hamilton fourth.

The two Ferrari SF-26s will therefore start immediately behind Pierre Gasly and George, a start to watch closely with Max Verstappen fifth on the third row, also promoted one position due to the penalty given to Piastri.
