Monaco GP: Qualifying - Re-Cap & Results


MONACO GRAND PRIX - QUALIFYING

It was a shocking crash for Spanish GP Winner, Max Verstappen, who will start the race from pit-lane after not setting a time and needing a chassis change. Felipe Nasr will also start from pit-lane after he had an engine failure in the opening minutes of Q1. The team had to change the cooling ducts and panels of the engine later on. Kimi Raikkonen has a 5-Place-Grid-Penalty due to a pre-qualifying gearbox change.

HOW IT WORKS:

Q1 = 18 minutes. All cars allowed to go out. At the end of the session, the six slowest are eliminated.
Q2 = 15 minutes. The remaining cars go out. At the end of the session, the six slowest are eliminated.
Q3 = 12 minutes. Final 10 cars go out. The final order at the end of the session is how the grid will line up. Fastest car starts from Pole Position.
