Lewis Hamilton's Ferrari misery has continued after being eliminated in the second part of qualifying for the São Paulo Grand Prix.
After being eliminated in the second part of Sprint qualifying on Friday, Hamilton repeated the feat by being eliminated in the second part of normal qualifying.
The seven-time world champion could only salvage 13th, while team-mate Charles Leclerc comfortably progressed to the final part of qualifying.
Hamilton did at least manage to qualify ahead of both Red Bull drivers, with Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda having been eliminated in Q1.
It was also a disappointing second part of qualifying for Aston Martin, as both Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll were eliminated in 11th and 12th.
Aston Martin's bad qualifying was a surprise, given both of its drivers had qualified for the sprint in fifth and seventh.
