The Singapore Grand Prix qualifying session was highly dramatic, resulting in George Russell securing pole position for the race.
However, the Mercedes driver managed the feat despite 'struggling with illness'.
The session saw Russell himself suffer an early crash that led to the first red flag of the day.
World champion Max Verstappen was left 'furious' after qualifying, claiming that McLaren driver Lando Norris had negatively affected his final sector.
Further chaos struck after qualifying when two drivers, Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz, were disqualified from the session after their cars failed technical checks.
The FIA technical delegate's report found that the 'uppermost rear wing element adjustable positions' on both the Williams (Albon) and Ferrari (Sainz) exceeded the maximum limit of 85mm, wiping their qualifying results and forcing them to start at the back of the grid.
Albon, who had qualified 12th, will start 19th, and Sainz, 13th, will start 20th.
Russell and will start on the front row, with championship leader Oscar Piastri in third and Norris starting fifth.
