Max Verstappen is looking to secure a return to winning ways at the Japanese Grand Prix after qualifying on pole position following a dominant Saturday performance at Suzuka.<\/p>\n

The reigning world champion was well-beaten in Singapore last weekend, suffering a Q2 exit during qualifying on Saturday before recovering to snatch P5 in the Grand Prix on Sunday.<\/p>\n

That result put an end to both Verstappen and Red Bull’s winning streak. The Dutchman had won a record-breaking ten consecutive Grands Prix ahead of the trip to Singapore, while the team were unbeaten all season long.<\/p>\n

Any hopes of a Singapore hangover for Red Bull were quickly eliminated when the cars hit the Suzuka track this weekend. Verstappen topped the timing sheets in all three practice sessions before qualifying six-tenths of a second clear of the field for the Japanese Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

Pre-race peril for Sargeant<\/h3>\n

Logan Sargeant has been given a pre-race time penalty amounting to ten seconds. This will be served during the Japanese Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

The American rookie suffered a major shunt during Saturday\u2019s qualifying session, colliding with the wall at the end of the final sector on his first flying lap.<\/p>\n

Williams\u2019 engineering team faced a lengthy overnight rebuild job, breaking Parc Ferme conditions to rebuild the No.2 car and get Sargeant onto the grid for Sunday\u2019s race.<\/p>\n

As a result of these changes, Sergeant will be starting the Grand Prix from the pit lane, giving him a mountain to climb as he targets his maiden F1 points.<\/p>\n
