F1 Qualifying Results: Lando Norris on pole as Oscar Piastri suffers horror show at Mexican Grand Prix

McLaren's F1 duo of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri experienced contrasting sessions in qualifying for this year's Mexican Grand Prix.

Norris flew around the track on Saturday to claim McLaren's first pole position in Mexico City since 1990, and the first of his career at the challenging track.

Piastri on the other hand could only manage to qualify down in eighth as the championship leader appeared significantly less confident at the wheel of his MCL39, especially in comparison to his team-mate, who made keeping Max Verstappen off his back look easy on Saturday.

The Dutchman also appeared to struggle consistently in qualifying and will start Sunday's race down in fifth.

One year on from Ferrari's last grand prix win with ex-driver Carlos Sainz, his replacement Lewis Hamilton will be starting from a beneficial spot on the second row alongside George Russell on Sunday, with Charles Leclerc's P2 qualifying position meaning he will line up alongside Norris on the front row.

With three different drivers topping the timesheets across Friday and Saturday's three practice sessions, qualifying provided a more representative view of the competitive order in Mexico City.

Here are the full results from the Mexican GP qualifying at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez.
