Adjusted starting grid for the 2024 F1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas following Colapinto’s decision

George Russell and Carlos Sainz share the front row for the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix, with title rivals Max Verstappen and Lando Norris alone in third place.

Verstappen must finish ahead of Norris, with the Briton needing to score at least three points to extend the title fight to Qatar.

They start their duel from row three, with Pierre Gasly and Charles Leclerc filling the second row. Lewis Hamilton is 10th in his Mercedes.

With Franco Colapinto taking part after being declared fit to race following a massive 50G impact in his Williams in Q2, the team took the opportunity to make changes to the car, leading to a pit lane start.

The drivers below him all move up one position. Ahead of Valtteri Bottas, who qualified 19th but was demoted to 20th after serving a five-place grid penalty, the Finn will now effectively start 19th.

NOTE: The grid remains provisional until officially confirmed by the FIA.
