Max Verstappen lines up on pole for the Austrian Grand Prix as he targets a Sprint-GP double.
The Dutchman led home Red Bull teammate Sergio Perez in a one-two during the 24-lap Sprint on Saturday, though the latter will start only 15th for the main event.
Ferrari is Verstappen's nearest challenger, with Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz second and third on the grid.
Lando Norris has impressed all weekend for McLaren and starts fourth, ahead of Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton and the Aston Martins led by Lance Stroll.
Nico Hulkenberg has been the unsung hero of the event and lines up eighth for Haas, with Alpine's Pierre Gasly and the Williams of Alex Albon completing the top ten.
Check out the full grid below. All positions are provisional until FIA confirmation.
