Mexico City Grand Prix: Max Verstappen on pole with George Russell second
Ferrari, the pole position kings of 2022 so far, were nowhere - Carlos Sainz was in fifth place, behind the second Red Bull of Sergio Perez, and 0.576secs from pole.
Russell was 0.132secs off Verstappen on the first runs in final qualifying and felt he had a shot at beating the Red Bull - even if the Mercedes team did not agree - but he made a mistake on his final lap. Hamilton said: "This is the best qualifying we've had all year. It just shows perseverance and never giving up is the way forwards."
The car has looked wayward all weekend. Leclerc crashed in the Esses on Friday and Sainz had a number of moments there through Saturday. "Now we have to focus on putting a good face together knowing we might not be fastest but when car is tricky putting a good lap together in qualifying is always tricky.
