Understanding F1 Qualifying Results
Q1: all 22 drivers
Every driver sets a time. The slowest six are eliminated and fill positions 17–22.
Q2: the final 16
The remaining drivers go again. The slowest six in Q2 take positions 11–16.
Q3: pole shootout
The quickest 10 fight for pole. Their Q3 order fills the first five rows of the provisional grid.
Result vs starting grid
Qualifying order is not always the final grid: penalties or other decisions can move a driver before the race.
