F1 Grand Prix qualifying results (unknown)

Ferrari's Charles Leclerc took pole position for the Bahrain Grand Prix at Sakhir, the first round of the 2022 F1 World Championship.

On the first runs, Sainz set the bar at 1m30.687s, 0.044s faster than Leclerc with Verstappen 0.012s off a front row spot (complaining about tyre temperature and out-lap speed) and Perez in fourth, ahead of Hamilton and Russell – the Mercs both setting their times on used softs. Sainz slipped to third, ahead of Perez, Hamilton, Bottas, Magnussen (who stopped at Turn 1 after completing his lap), Alonso, Russell and Gasly. Only the top three cars and the Mercedes duo didn’t run again on a second set of soft tyres, with Magnussen jumping up to fifth ahead of Esteban Ocon (Alpine), Pierre Gasly (AlphaTauri) and Lando Norris (McLaren), pushing the Mercs back to the lower reaches of the top 10. Kevin Magnussen grabbed an early P2 for Haas before Valtteri Bottas snatched it away for Alfa Romeo, just 0.01s off Verstappen. Verstappen dived straight into the 1m30s bracket, with a 1m30.757s that was six tenths clear of Leclerc and Perez. Magnussen was fourth fastest after the opening runs, despite suffering a hydraulic issue with his power steering, ahead of Hamilton and Russell. Ferrari then took control, with Leclerc taking the top spot on 1m31.471s, 0.096s quicker than teammate Sainz. Hamilton took P5 for Mercedes at this point, eight tenths off the pace, while Russell beat him on a second push lap on his first set of tyres.

“P18 shows it was definitely tricky,” the Australian said. “The guys ahead of us are in another league. Their performance was quite a bit ahead of us.” “We have a good race car, which overall is the most important. Sergio Perez qualified fourth in the second Red Bull ahead of Lewis Hamilton in fifth. I will stay cautious, the race is long and anything can happen.”

SAKHIR, BAHRAIN — After the season of all seasons, and the controversy of all controversies, Formula 1 is finally back with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc the ...

10:20am: One man who doesn’t need any sympathy today is Charles Leclerc. The Ferrari man is in pole position for the 10th time in his career. 11:19am: And the commentator's curse strikes, as Perez overtakes Hamilton! The Mexican is back into P4, where he began. 11:21am: Verstappen is again on the radio, telling his team he has "zero traction". Meanwhile, rival Hamilton is in the pits already! Carlos Sainz does the same, and is in P5. 11:27am: Verstappen is in the pits. He's also told not to push too hard on the out-lap. Verstappen fumes that he's "never, ever" going easy on the tyres in an out-lap again, as he feels he could've taken the lead if he was more aggressive. Red Bull going for the three-stop, while Leclerc will surely stay out on his current mediums for the last 13 laps. 12:26pm: Verstappen is suffering with steering issues, but the team confirms via the radio he will not need to come in - no reliability issue evident. Hamilton is P3 and Russell on his (second) Mercedes debut is P4. Magnussen is P5. Yes, a Haas is in the top five! With Valtteri Bottas taking P6, it's a double for the usually-lowly Alfa Romeo, showing the capability of the Ferrari-powered engine in this new generation. After complaining of tyre degradation early on, then steering issues, then a battery problem, he was forced into the garage with three laps left.
