The Mercedes driver topped both Thursday practice sessions, remained within 0.099s of Max Verstappen in FP3 and then delivered a stunning 1:42.526 in Q3, beating Charles Leclerc by 0.837s. Leclerc lines up alongside Russell on the front row, with [Oscar Piastri](https://www.f1-fansite.com/f1-drivers/oscar-piastri/) just 0.001s behind the Ferrari in third and an impressive Isack Hadjar completing row two. Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton share the third row, while Pierre Gasly starts seventh ahead of Verstappen, whose strong FP3 pace failed to translate into qualifying. The biggest recovery drive belongs to championship leader Kimi Antonelli. After reliability problems cost him running earlier in the weekend, the Mercedes driver clipped the wall in Q1 and will start only 16th. Carlos Sainz drops to 14th after a five-place grid penalty for failing to slow sufficiently for yellow flags, while Sergio Perez carries a three-place penalty. Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll have dropped to the back of the grid following power-unit penalties. That leaves Russell in an ideal position to control the start, but Baku rarely rewards anyone who assumes the hard work is already done. The long run to Turn 1, the powerful slipstream effect and the constant threat of Safety Cars can transform this race in an instant. FP2 also suggested the soft tyre may be more durable than expected, adding another strategic variable to a grid already scrambled by penalties and qualifying surprises. Russell has clear air ahead, Antonelli has half the field between himself and the front, Verstappen starts eighth and Leclerc, Piastri and Hadjar are all close enough to attack. If Baku needed ingredients for another unpredictable Grand Prix, the provisional grid has supplied plenty. ## Start Grid 2026 Azerbaijan GP Start / finish · Turn 1 ahead ↑ Race start15:00 +04+04MY

Each driver gets a strength score from the factors below; the race is then simulated 10,000 times and we count how often each driver wins, finishes on the podium or scores points. It does not know about weather or reliability, and it says so. Grid penalties count as soon as the official starting grid is in. **60%**Championship formPoints this season, relative to the leader. **40%**Recent formThe last five finishes; a DNF counts as P20. **0%**Starting gridHow often each grid slot has won over the last eight seasons. Joins after qualifying. Before qualifying the model is honest about the odds: three or four candidates share most of the chance. After qualifying the grid takes over and the call sharpens. **13/18**winners called **1.9/3**podium drivers per race **2**exact podiums **74**prediction points Calibration this season: when it said 7%, it happened 0% of the time; when it said 15%, it happened 7% of the time.
