Lando Norris grabbed top spot for the Spanish Grand Prix with a qualifying effort that earned high praise.
The full starting grid, once the penalties were factored in, has been published. It indicates Norris starting with a disadvantage despite being the pole-setter. The grid changes mean he will start behind rivals he beat in qualifying.
McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri suffered a terrible qualifying session. He admitted his lap was crap. Piastri is set for more misery in Spain after his qualifying struggles. He will need to overtake cars in the race from a poor starting position.
The final grid creates an early obstacle for McLaren. Norris will need a quick recovery to avoid losing more ground. Piastri must salvage what he can. McLaren will be frustrated by the setback.
