(Reuters) -Red Bull's Formula One world championship leader Max Verstappen took pole position for his team's home Styrian Grand Prix on Saturday and set up another duel with title rival Lewis Hamilton.

Seven times world champion Hamilton qualified third at Austria's Red Bull Ring but will join Verstappen on the front row because Mercedes team mate Valtteri Bottas, second fastest, collected a three-place grid penalty in Friday practice.
