Relive Azerbaijan GP Qualifying as Verstappen grabs pole

In a chaotic and record-breaking Qualifying session at the Baku City Circuit, Max Verstappen secured pole position for Red Bull. The session saw an unprecedented six red flags due to crashes involving Alex Albon, Nico Hülkenberg, Franco Colapinto, Ollie Bearman, Charles Leclerc, and Oscar Piastri, exacerbated by wind and brief rain. Verstappen skillfully navigated the disruptions, setting a 1m 41.117s lap to beat Carlos Sainz of Williams and Liam Lawson of Racing Bulls. Championship leader Piastri's late crash added to the drama, while Lando Norris finished a distant seventh after a near two-hour session.
