Qualified Lewis Hamilton ثانياً لجائزة البحرين الكبرى، وكان لفافته الأفضل هذا العام. سيبدأ بجانب polesitter Max Verstappen، مما يشير إلى أول مواجهة على الصف الأمامي منذ يوليو 2023 في جائزة المجر الكبرى. القائد البطولي Kimi AntonelliQualified ثالثاً، مما يضع مواجهة مثيرة للاهتمام في مقدمة الشبكة لسباق الأحد. Hamilton admitted Ferrari carries a deficit of straight-line speed compared to Red Bull, particularly relevant on a track like Sepang where tyre degradation is very high. He stated the team must focus on their own race rather than over-pushing through corners to compensate for straight-line losses.
Verstappen claimed pole by 0.298s, with his form suggesting he is the favourite to win. Hamilton remained cautious about Ferrari's race pace but admitted it would be "awesome" if they could stay with the championship leader. The abrasive Sepang track surface has created unexpected challenges despite typically hot and humid conditions.
Hamilton will give it everything tomorrow, hoping to be in the fight from the front row.
