Red Bull’s Verstappen cruises to third F1 sprint race winHamilton and Leclerc round out podium in 19-lap race
Max Verstappen started from the pole position and cruised to his third Formula One sprint race victory of the season on Saturday at the Circuit of the Americas, a day before he’ll go for another win in a dominant season at the United States Grand Prix.
Verstappen was denied the pole position for Sunday’s race because of a rare mistake on his final lap of qualifying on Friday. But the Red Bull driver returned to the track in top form a day later and won the pole position for the 19-lap sprint race.
