George Russell in pole position for the Las Vegas GP, Pierre Gasly third in qualifying

Incredible return to the forefront for Alpine which, after signing its first double podium since 2013 in Brazil, signs its best qualification of the season in Las Vegas with Pierre Gasly's third place. Already flamboyant in this exercise last year (4th) on this atypical circuit where you have to know how to get your tires up to temperature quickly, the Frenchman did even better by settling behind the Mercedes of George Russell and the Ferrari of Carlos Sainz. “It’s incredible, we didn’t imagine we could achieve this, he savored when he got out of the car. I did an incredible lap, I exploited every inch of the track. I knew I had done a good lap, but from there to setting the third time… It was a lot of adrenaline. It's great! »
