Turkish GP: Stroll in the rain to the first pole position, Hamilton only 6.

Racing Point racer Lance Stroll won his first best start in Formula 1 on the wet track of Istanbul Park.

The Canadian drove the best lap of the last part of the qualifications in difficult conditions and was looking forward to the premier pole position in Formula 1.

Max Verstappen will start the race from the first starting line. Stroll's team-mate Sergio Perez finished third in qualifying, ahead of fourth-placed Alex Albon. Daniel Ricciardo was fifth, and Lewis Hamilton, who can already win this year’s world title in the race, was quite restrained with a sixth time.

Esteban Ocon will start the race from seventh place, while the Alfa Rome racers achieved great team success. Kimi Raikkonen will start the team's 500th anniversary race from eighth place, and the Finn overtook his compatriot in the Mercedes race car, Valtteri Bottas, on the wet track for more than half a second. Raikkonen’s teammate Antonio Giovinazzi was tenth.

The Ferrari racers suffered a heavy defeat and were eliminated in the second part of the qualifications. Sebatian Vettel will start the race in 12th place behind Land Norris and Charles Leclerc in 14th place behind Carlos Sainz.
