Oscar Piastri has qualified on pole for the Spanish Grand Prix
Piastri vowed to not let the title scrap between him and Norris get between him, but things could all go pear shaped in sunny Spain.
Just three points separate the two McLaren team-mates in the drivers' standings following Norris' win at Monaco last weekend.
Australian driver Piastri, 24, leads with four victories so far in just his third season in F1.
Norris seems to be feeling the pressure of the title race more as he produced a scrappy final lap in the final qualifying session compared to Piastri's blistering pace.
