Qualifying for the Spanish Grand Prix is scheduled for Saturday at the new Madring street circuit in Madrid. Drivers describe the track as punishing and unforgiving. After Arvid Lindblad had a crash in the session, George Russell called it extremely risky. The crash was a first for Lindblad in grand prix racing.
Kimi Antonelli led practice, ahead of Ferrari. Max Verstappen was unimpressed with the layout. Sunday's race will be the first Spanish Grand Prix at Madring.
