Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium): Charles Leclerc will start the Belgian GP from pole position after setting the fastest lap in Saturday's qualifying, ahead of teammate Sebastian Vettel who completed a one-two for Ferrari.
The Monegasque lapped the 7-km long Spa-Francorchamps track in one minute, 42.519 seconds. He was a whopping 0.748 seconds clear of Vettel, with the German's lap hindered by traffic. Lewis Hamilton, whose Mercedes required extensive repairs in the build up to qualifying after the Briton crashed in the final practice session, was third ahead of teammate Valtteri Bottas.
