168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen has equalled Ayrton Senna’s record for most consecutive F1 pole positions at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.

The Red Bull driver claimed his eighth consecutive pole - and seventh of the current 2024 season - at Imola🔥 to tie the late Senna’s record.

Verstappen’s run of straight poles stretches back to last year’s season-ending Abu Dhabi Gra🐓nd Prix.

The three-time world champion has the chance to break the record next weekend in Mona𝄹co.

Verstappen had to work for his record-tying pole, having been run close by the McLaren pair✱ of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris.

In the end, Ver๊stappen edged Piastri by just 0.074s, while Norris missed out by 0.091s.

“It’s of𝓀 course a great start to the y🎃ear, but also very special,” the Dutchman said as he acknowledged his latest F1 feat.

“It’s 30 years since he passed aw꧙ay at this track. Of course very pleased to get pol😼e here, and in a way, it’s a nice memory to him.

“He 🍒was an incredible Formula 1 driver, 🌌especially in qualifying laps as well. Great day for me, great day for the team. So I’m very, very happy.”

S🏅enna was tragically꧂ killed in a crash during the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, which took place at Imola. 

On turning around his Friday practice stru♉ggles, Verstappen added: "A really difficult weekend so far, even this morning. So yeah, I’m incredibly happy to be o💎n pole here. I didn’t expect that.

"We made some final chan🐼ges before qualifying. They seem𒐪ed to make it feel a bit better, I could push a bit harder.

"And this track is unbelievable, on a qualifying lap to be on the limit here,♉ close to the gravel, I touched the gravel in the last corner - yeah I’m still pump🙈ing, the adrenaline is still very, very high."
