Kimi Antonelli, 19, is the youngest driver to lead the F1 world championship [Reuters] Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli bounced back from a difficult sprint race to take pole position for the Miami Grand Prix. It was the Italian's third pole in four grands prix this season and his team-mate and title rival George Russell was down in fifth place, 0. 399 seconds adrift.
Max Verstappen took second, 0. 166secs from Antonelli, after a remarkable turnaround in form for his Red Bull team following upgrades to their car. McLaren's Lando Norris, who dominated the sprint earlier on Saturday, was fourth, behind Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, whose team-mate Lewis Hamilton was sixth, ahead of McLaren's Oscar Piastri.
