SOCHI, Russia (AP) — Lando Norris took pole position for the first time in a rain-hit qualifying session for the Russian Grand Prix on Saturday after timing his final fast lap to perfection on a drying track. “It’s my first pole position and hopefully the first of many,” said Norris, who fought to keep his car under control on dry tires in the still-tricky conditions. So that’s just, I guess, the level you’ve got to be at to be in this position,” he said. “Probably the only place I wouldn’t want to be pole is here with the straight down to turn one,“ Norris said.
