Japanese Grand Prix: Red Bull’s Max Verstappen continued his reign of pole positions in the 2024 season by clinching P1 on the grid for the Japanese Grand Prix.

Teammate Sergio Perez joined Verstappen on the front row, underlining Red Bull's formidable presence at the sharp end of the grid. Despite a valiant effort from Perez, Verstappen's mastery prevailed, with the Mexican's time falling just short of his teammate's benchmark.

The world champion improved his last effort to a 1m 28.197s after recording the quickest time in the early laps of Q3 with a lap of 1m 28.240s. Perez made a heroic effort, but in the end, his time was just 0.066 seconds slower than Verstappen's, placing him in P2.
