McLaren’s Lando Norris took his first grand prix pole position of the season, beating Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton by 0.012 seconds with the final lap of the session.

Hamilton had been fastest on the first runs, by just over 0.1secs from Norris, but neither the seven-time champion nor team-mate Charles Leclerc could improve on their final attempts.

But Norris pulled out pole, following one in the sprint in Miami, in a chaotic end to the session caused by a spin at the final corner by Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.

The four-time champion’s error affected Mercedes drivers Kimi Antonelli and George Russell, who were forced to slow, ending up fourth and seventh.

But Verstappen had got going again before Norris came around as the last driver on track to clinch pole in the upgraded McLaren.
