2025 F1 Las Vegas GP Qualifying Results: Starting Grid for the Race

Heavy rain under night lights impaired visibility, leaving seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton last on the grid, with Lando Norris on pole, officials said.

  • On November 22, 2025, Lewis Hamilton qualified last at the Las Vegas Grand Prix on the Las Vegas Strip, calling the session ` 'horrible'` and facing the back of the grid.
  • Hamilton's early-day pace contrasted with wider descriptions of this year as his hardest year, as he had looked competitive in final practice and said the car felt great earlier with three races remaining.
  • Soaking conditions on the Las Vegas Strip reduced visibility and disrupted final runs, with heavy rain and spray under the lights preventing a clean lap and causing Lewis Hamilton to hit a bollard.
  • Hamilton faces the race from 20th on the grid, which he said will make a comeback hard though Ferrari's pace offers hope if the race is dry, and he is still processing the disappointment.
  • As teams prepared for Saturday night's race, Ferrari's Charles Leclerc qualified ninth while Hamilton will start at the back, amid team tensions and Elkann's remarks, which Hamilton and Leclerc denied caused friction.
