Lando Norris took pole position Saturday for Formula 1’s Belgian Grand Prix after Max Verstappen won the sprint race earlier in the day.
Norris set the fastest time early in the final session. His McLaren teammate and title rival Oscar Piastri couldn’t quite beat it on his final run, taking second place, 0.085 of a second off Norris’ pace. Charles Leclerc was third for Ferrari, with Verstappen fourth.
The performance delighted Norris’ mother Cisca, who is Belgian, as she made a heart gesture with her hands while watching from the McLaren garage.
