George Russell starts from pole position for the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Las Vegas. Here’s how and when you can watch the race.

After Mercedes dominated practice, Russell stormed to pole position ahead of Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz, while Lewis Hamilton made mistakes on both of his laps in Q3, leaving him without a representative lap time and finishing in 10th place.

Title fighters Max Verstappen and Lando Norris start the race in Las Vegas side by side in fifth and sixth respectively, with the Red Bull driver within easy reach of winning a fourth consecutive world title.

Norris needs to beat Verstappen by more than two points to keep the title race going until the Qatar GP next weekend.

Alpine’s Pierre Gasly took a shock third in qualifying, to support the team’s recent double podium in Brazil, pushing Charles Leclerc ahead of Ferrari to fourth.

Sergio Perez suffered another nightmare for Red Bull when he dropped out in Q1 and will start from 16th on the grid.
