Even though neither he nor Red Bull have anything at this point, Max Verstappen does not give up and does not give up the opportunity to get the last pole position of the season at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The Dutch driver will open the grid this Sunday in front of Charles Leclerc, with whom he can play in a new challenge after their proposed fight in Las Vegas last week.
Heads and tails for the Spanish. Fernando Alonso moved up to seventh after reaching Q3 again in his Aston Martin, while Carlos Sainz fell to 16th after being eliminated in the first quarter due to traffic problems after not feeling comfortable with his Ferrari throughout the weekend.
He will need to return tomorrow if he wants to contribute to Ferrari’s efforts to finish the season ahead of Mercedes, who are only four points ahead of Mercedes in the Constructors’ World Championship.
