The Haas driver scored his first F1 pole and that of the team after being the first on the track in Q3 as the rain intensified, before the departure of George Russell triggered a red flag, which meant that no one could set a time before the track would get too wet.
As a result, Magnussen’s opening effort in the top 10 penalty shootout was enough to clinch an upset pole ahead of the Brazilian GP sprint race.
Max Verstappen will join Magnussen in the front row for the sprint race, having locked out Turn 8 on his only lap in Q3 before rain and the red flag, while Russell took third place despite his spin and crashing. is stranded in the gravel.
Russell’s lap kept him ahead of McLaren’s Lando Norris who took fourth in qualifying, despite missing track activities on Thursday with food poisoning.
Meanwhile, it was a Q3 nightmare for Ferrari, who sent Charles Leclerc onto intermediate tires before the rain fully set in and didn’t call him off before starting a timed lap.
This meant he wasted any opportunity to set a representative lap time as he was caught red-flagged when he returned to the softs too late. Leclerc will duly start the sprint race in 10th place.
