A beaming Kevin Magnussen was almost lost for words on Friday, Nov. 11, after claiming a sensational maiden pole position for himself and the underdog Haas team in a dramatic rain-hit qualifying session at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
SAO PAULO, Brazil —
His stunning and unexpected success was also the first by a driver for an American team since Tom Pryce took pole for Shadow at the 1975 British Grand Prix at Silverstone. Newly-acclaimed two-time world champion Max Verstappen had no chance to improve on his time of 1:11.877, two-tenths adrift of Magnussen, and had to settle for second ahead of Russell, who had clocked 1:12.059 before sliding off.
His success made him the fourth different driver to claim a maiden pole position this season, following Carlos Sainz of Ferrari, Sergio Perez of Red Bull and George Russell of Mercedes, all of whom were among the quickest to congratulate him.
