Norris secured pole position in SQ2 with a time of 1:41.412, while Piastri narrowly advanced to the final qualifying stage after a track limits infraction. Several notable drivers, including Hamilton, Russell, Albon, and Tsunoda, failed to progress past SQ1. Close calls marked the session, with Piastri and Albon edging out rivals by a mere 0.041 seconds. Hamilton's high-speed spin contributed to his early exit, along with Antonelli's off-track excursion.
