Lewis Hamilton grabbed his record-extending 89th career pole for Sunday's Styrian Grand Prix.
SPIELBERG, Austria — World champion Lewis Hamilton showed he’s still the best driver in wet conditions, keeping his composure on a rain-drenched track to take pole position Saturday for the Styrian Grand Prix.
"I definitely had my heart in my mouth, but I was able to improve," Hamilton said. "Honestly it was a fantastic lap, that lap was as close to perfect as I could get it in those conditions.""It could have been better but I don’t think it was enough to beat Lewis," the Dutch driver said. "You can’t see a thing, it is hard to see the braking zones but that is the same for everyone.
Hamilton’s Mercedes teammate Valtteri Bottas could only qualify in fourth place after taking pole position and winning last Sunday’s Austrian GP."The main problem was we were just not quick enough," Leclerc said. "We’re just too slow."
