The Sao Paulo Grand Prix on Sunday proved to be a wild ride, with qualifying cancelled on Saturday and an early start for the next day's session. McLaren's Lando Norris secured pole position amidst a record-setting five red flags due to various crashes. The race was no less dramatic, with Aston Martin driver Lance Stroll unable to even take the start due to a bizarre spin out on the formation lap. Jolyon Palmer speculated on the reason for Stroll's unfortunate turn of events, as Aston Martin worked tirelessly to repair their cars after multiple crashes in qualifying.
The hype and anticipation leading up to the 2024 F1 Sao Paulo GP turned into chaos when Lance Stroll's beached car during the formation lap caused a last-minute aborted start. This resulted in a mix-up in communication from race control and potential penalties for pole-sitter Lando Norris. The race will now resume with another formation lap and a shortened distance of 69 laps instead of 71.
In a dramatic turn of events at the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix, Lando Norris claimed his second-ever pole position, with Max Verstappen securing second place on the grid. Despite penalties for Red Bull's Sergio Perez, the Mexican driver will start in 11th place, while Norris' teammate Logan Sargeant will start from 20th after a three-place grid penalty for blocking Lance Stroll. The grid is set for an exciting race, with Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton and George Russell starting in third and fourth place respectively.
