F1 live stream: How to watch the French Grand Prix
Charles Leclerc will start on pole position for Ferrari in the French Grand Prix on Sunday, having finished ahead of Red Bull duo Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez in Saturday’s qualifying session. Monegasque team-mate Carlos Sainz has taken on a new engine so a grid penalty means he will start almost from the back of the grid.
Even so, Ferrari found good use for him in Q3 as he allowed Leclerc to run in his wake, helping to secure another pole. Lewis Hamilton will start on the second row after finishing fourth, with a terrific drive from Lando Norris putting him in P5 ahead of George Russell and Fernando Alonso.
Leclerc said after qualifying: “He [Sainz] did the perfect job and the perfect tow which helped me a lot, I gained two tenths on that straight. It was a great job from Carlos…without him it would have been a lot closer so big thanks to him and hopefully he can get in the fight. The car feels good but let’s see how it goes tomorrow.
Sunday’s race starts at 2pm BST and we’ll have full coverage here on The Independent.
