- Pitlane starts: Fernando Alonso, Lance Stroll, Nico Hulkenberg, Kevin Magnussen
Both Aston Martins and both Haas drivers ꦍwill start from the pitlane.
Fernando Alonso is reverting to his 🦂Qatar spec of car. Lance Stroll will remain with the latest version but with a different set-up, and Aston Martin plan to compare the two. They both were eliminat🧸ed in Q1 on Friday.
Haas brought major updates to Texas but qualified in 14th and 16th, then struggled in the sprint. S🐠o they are changing the set-up meaning Kevin Magnussen and Nico Hulkenberg begin from the pitlane.
𒁃Ferrari are the only team aside from Red Bull to win an F1 grand prix in 2🐓023 and, in Texas, they will have a chance to repeat the trick with Charles Leclerc starting in pole position.
Max Verstappen's best lap was deleted for exceeding track limits so he starts fro🥀m sixth.
McLaren's Lando No𝄹rris and Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton are in second and third, intriguingly. The two Br𓆏its will want to lay down a marker in the chase towards the dominant Red Bulls.
The under-fire Sergio Perez is ninth but will need to🌺 dramatically improve that to relieve some pressure.
