Lewis Hamilton lines up ahead of Carlos Sainz on the second row of the grid, whilst George Russell is a row further back alongside Max Verstappen, who saw his best effort deleted for exceeding track limits.
Alpine duo Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon head Sergio Perez and Oscar Piastri to round out the top 10, whilst four drivers will start from the pit lane after making changes under parc fermé.
