Lando Norris takes pole for Miami sprint race as Mercedes face pressure

Lando Norris claimed sprint qualifying pole position for the Miami Grand Prix, beating Mercedes' championship leader Kimi Antonelli by 0.222 seconds, with Oscar Piastri third and Charles Leclerc fourth. It marked the first time Mercedes had lost a qualifying session after dominating the opening three races of the season, including Antonelli's win at the Japanese Grand Prix on March 29. Norris currently trails Antonelli by 47 points in the championship standings, having missed the Chinese Grand Prix due to a mechanical failure.
