Alexander Sims has taken back to back pole positions in AD Diriyah and has taken another three championship points for pole position.
The Brit’s pole is also the first time a driver has taken three poles in a row, as the BMW driver also took pole in the final round of the season in New York in season five.
Sims set a lap time of 1:11.476 which was two tenths faster than Sebastien Buemi who will start alongside Sims in second. Lucas Di Grassi will start third for Audi setting a lap time of a 1:11.784.
Mitch Evans will start the race from fourth for Jaguar Racing and Jerome D’Ambrosio will start fifth for Mahindra.
Antonio Felix Da Costa will start sixth for DS Techeeah, but the Portuguese driver was on course for pole position but had a massive slide at Turn 16 which lost him a second and pushed him back to sixth.

Maxi Gunther qualified in ninth for BMW, while Andre Lotterer was another driver who took part in the first group of the session and the Porsche driver qualified tenth.
