Max Verstappen will start the British Grand Prix from pole position after topping qualifying at Silverstone.
The McLaren duo of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris secured second and third on the grid, ahead of George Russell and Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton.
Whilst Verstappen secured pole, his Red Bull team-mate Yuki Tsunoda suffered another early qualifying exit and starts from 11th after being promoted two places due to grid penalties.
Kimi Antonelli had qualified in seventh, but will start from 10th following a three-place grid penalty for crashing into Verstappen in Austria.
The other penalised driver is Oliver Bearman, who received a 10-place grid penalty following a bizarre red flag infringement in third practice, demoting him to 18th.
Franco Colapinto, who qualified 20th, will start from the pit lane after Alpine changed power unit components in the back of his car.
NOTE: Grid remains provisional until officially confirmed by the FIA.
