\t\t\t\t\tFull 2026 F1 Canadian Grand Prix Sprint starting grid<\/p>\n
George Russell will start the Canadian Grand Prix Sprint from pole position after edging out Kimi Antonelli.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
The Briton was just 0.068s faster than the championship leader to secure the front-row spot in Montreal, ahead of the McLaren duo of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
It is an all-Ferrari third row, with Lewis Hamilton in fifth and Charles Leclerc alongside him, while Max Verstappen and Isack Hadjar form the fourth row.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Arvid Lindblad is the leading midfield driver in ninth. However, Liam Lawson will start from last after missing Sprint qualifying.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
On Saturday morning, Alpine decided to take Pierre Gasly’s car out of parc ferme and break the curfew to change parts and set-up, meaning he will start from the pit-lane.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
He will be joined by Alex Albon of Williams, Haas’s Oliver Bearman and the Cadillac of Valtteri Bottas, leaving 18 cars on the grid.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
