Off-track issues may continue to hit the headlines but Red Bull continue to cut out the noise, with Verstappen on pole again ahead of the returning Carlos Sainz as he goes for a record-equalling 10th straight win, but Perez has been hit with a three-place grid penalty.

Verstappen won this race last year for the first time ever, but Ferrari may just offer some competition on Sunday.
