F1 | Qualifying report: Hamilton storms to Spa pole as both Ferraris are knocked out in Q2
Lewis
Hamilton was quietly confident after Friday practice despite having
failed to hook a up a tidy lap at Spa Francorchamps – but as he has done so
often in his glittering career, the reigning world champion delivered when it
mattered with an astonishing lap to take pole position for the Belgian Grand
Prix.
The Mercedes driver looked like he had the speed
from the moment qualifying began, the Briton at one with his Silver Arrows,
comfortably getting through Q1 and then easing through Q2 on the medium tyre to
give him the favoured compound for Sunday’s race.
Then when it came to Q3, he pulled out an epic lap on his first run, and then
was even quicker, ending up 0.5s clear of team mate Valtteri Bottas, to secure
his sixth pole at Spa and fifth of the season.
