Share

In the first Qualifying session of 2025, Lando Norris established McLaren as the team to beat once again after he claimed a hard-fought pole position in Australia, pipping his team mate Oscar Piastri to the honour.

The margins separating the field were extremely narrow throughout the Qualifying hour, but it was the Briton who put together the fastest lap of 1m 15.096s as Piastri, an Aussie crowd favourite, slotted in just behind him to lock out the front row for the papaya team.
