Lando Norris grabbed top spot for the Spanish Grand Prix with a qualifying effort that earned high praise.
The full starting grid, once the penalties were factored in, has been published. It reveals Norris starting with a disadvantage despite being the pole-setter. The grid changes mean he will be placed behind drivers he outpaced.
McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri went through a dreadful qualifying run. He admitted his lap was crap. Piastri is set for more misery in Spain after his qualifying struggles. He must fight his way forward in the race from a poor starting position.
The final grid creates an early obstacle for McLaren. Norris will need a quick recovery to avoid losing more ground. Piastri also faces a long afternoon. McLaren will be frustrated by the setback.
