Lando Norris will start Sunday’s F1 Saudi Grand Prix no higher than 10th on the grid after crashing out in qua𝄹li🌺fying.

Norris lost control of his McLaren F1 car after running wid💝e on the kerb in the Turn 4-5 sequence.

It’s a major blow to Norris’ F1 title chances, given his small lead over McLaren teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri in the championship standings.

Norris has been on the back foot this season, admitting that he’s str𓃲uggled to g𒅌et to grips with this year’s car.

Even thou♏gh he won the season-opening Australian Grand Prix, he fa💧ced intense pressure from Piastri throughout the race.

Piastri came out on top in China, while Verstappen returned to wi♊nning ways at the Japanese Grand Prix.

Norris, then,🐲 endured an error-strewn Bahrain Grand Prix after qualifying sixth on the grid.

This was put in stark contrast to Piastri, wh🦩o controlled the race from pole position.

Up until his Q3 crash, Norris ap♛peared to be back on form and was in 🦋the fight to take pole with his teammate.

Norris has never out-qualified Piastri at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, with the Australian coming out oไn top in 2023 and 2024.

Provided Norris doesn’t require a chassis change - or any new engine components following the crash - he will start Sunday’s race frꦓom 10th on the grid a🌞t best.
