F1 QUALIFYING LIVE: Latest updates from Tuscan Grand Prix as Mercedes' pair Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas look to take 1-2 at Mugello Circuit

Tuscan Grand Prix qualifying gets underway today as Mercedes team-mates Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas look for 1-2 grid start on Mugello Circuit.

The championship-leading team were stunned last time out at Monza when AlphaTauri driver Pierre Gasly claimed his maiden F1 win of his career following a pit-lane penalty for Hamilton as he looked in complete control.  

All eyes will be on Ferrari after a difficult season and their woes could run deeper with another disaster in their own country this weekend.  

Sportsmail's KISHAN VAGHELA will provide live F1 qualifying coverage including lap times, fastest laps, pit stops and crashes.

Narrow track

Max Verstappen looks like he will be the closest contender to Mercedes duo Bottas and Hamilton for position on the grid, particuarly after the former swept practice.

But while there is a fabulous setting for today's qualifying and Sunday's race, a narrow track could well prove to be a challenge for all three.

Hello and welcome!

Hello and welcome.

There were some amazing scenes a few days ago with Pierre Gasly but we are now in Tuscany for qualifying for the first ever Tuscan Grand Prix.

With the Vettel news of a move to Aston Martin and Bottas' excellent display in practice so far, this promises to be another thriller.
