It’s race day in Austin, Texas as the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix gets underway at Circuit of the Americas.
Max Verstappen has already claimed one victory this weekend as he won the sprint in Saturday’s 19-lap race. To claim his 14th Grand Prix victory of the season, he will need to do so from sixth on the grid as he had a lap deleted in Q3 on Friday.
Three different teams make up the top three on the grid as Charles Leclerc is on pole. He has two British drivers closely behind as Lando Norris of McLaren is on the front row with Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes starting P3.
