Andrea Kimi Antonelli set the fastest qualifying lap at the Monaco Grand Prix, taking pole for Mercedes by 0.043 seconds over Max Verstappen. Lewis Hamilton qualified third and Ferrari's Charles Leclerc was fourth, completing the top four on the Monaco grid. Ferrari team principal Fred Vasseur was rushed to hospital ahead of the weekend and missed qualifying. Antonelli's pole gives Mercedes a crucial front-row advantage on Monaco's tight street circuit, where grid position often decides the race outcome.
