Max Verstappen stormed to his ninth victory in a row, dominating the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
Sergio Perez and Charles Leclerc joined him on the podium.
The drivers are on their way to the grid with just under 40 minutes to go.
He has told Sky: "It's going to be a difficult race. I thought I was prepared for F1 until I got to this track which is maybe the most difficult one, so it's a baptism of fire. I think the main thing [in the race] is to just take it step by step and build on the performance of yesterday."
Verstappen, Leclerc, Perez, Alonso, Piastri, Norris, Russell, Hamilton, Tsunoda, Stroll, Bearman, Albon, Magnussen, Ricciardo, Hulkenberg, Bottas, Ocon, Gasly, Sargeant and Zhou.
