The Chinese Grand Prix is less than 24 hours away and it will be Kimi Antonelli on pole position for the race after finishing first in qualifying.
Antonelli will start ahead of Mercedes teammate George Russell, who breezed to victory in Australia last weekend and has since followed that up by winning Saturday's sprint race.
Antonelli was one of many pushing Russell for the top spot in qualifying while two other drivers under the same banner clashed earlier on in Shanghai. During the sprint race, Charles Leclerc was very annoyed at Lewis Hamilton's driving as the two Ferrari drivers battled for second place.
