Lewis Hamilton will start the Mexico City Grand Prix from pole position, his first for Ferrari and the 105th of his career, ABC News Australia reports.
At 41, the seven-times world champion became the oldest pole sitter in Formula One since Mario Andretti in 1982. Mercedes' George Russell qualified second and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc third.
Kimi Antonelli of Mercedes qualified fifth but will move up to fourth because of a grid penalty for Red Bull's Max Verstappen. The 20-year-old needs only ninth place on Sunday to become the sport's youngest champion and Italy's first since 1953, unless Hamilton or Russell wins. McLaren's Oscar Piastri was knocked out in the second session and starts 13th, while reigning champion Lando Norris qualified sixth.
