    Kiwi Formula One driver Liam Lawson doesn't rate his chances in tomorrow morning's Sprint Race at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix

    Kiwi Formula One driver Liam Lawson doesn't rate his chances in tomorrow morning's Sprint Race at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix


    The 23-year-old could only manage an ugly 17th in qualifying, due to a timing mix-up that left Lawson unable to complete a second lap in Q1.

    Lawson says his Sprint Race hopes are non-existent given the congestion at the back of the field.



    Brit Lando Norris has out-performed his championship rival and McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri to take pole for the sprint race, with the Aussie only managing third.

    Max Verstappen is 6th with the Aston Martin of Fernando Alonso a surprise 5th.
