Max Verstappen lost pole position for the Qatar Grand Prix after receiving a bizarre one-place grid penalty, which has handed George Russell the best starting position.
The McLarens start on the second row, following on from a crucial one-two in the Qatar sprint which had an unusual ending.
Carlos Sainz believes Ferrari is facing a “mission impossible” in its slim hopes of beating McLaren to the 2024 F1 constructors’ championship.
Heading into the Qatar weekend, McLaren was 24 points ahead of Ferrari, knowing that if it out-scored the Scuderia by 21 points, it would seal its first title since 1998.
In the sprint race, McLaren increased its lead to 30 points following a one-two finish for Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, with Sainz and team-mate Charles Leclerc taking fourth and fifth.
It means that if McLaren out-score Ferrari by 15 points in the grand prix, it will win its ninth constructors’ title and mean Ferrari’s wait will go on for its first title of any kind since the 2008 constructors’.
For the race, Norris and Piastri will start third and fourth, with Sainz and Leclerc seventh and fifth, respectively.
Should the four cars finish in these positions, McLaren will haul 27 points to Ferrari’s 16, with a fastest lap for McLaren bringing the total to a 12-point difference. This would not been enough for the Woking team with Ferrari still just about within reach, but Sainz has faced up to the reality of such a scenario heading to the Abu Dhabi finale.
