The starting grid for the Monaco Grand Prix

After such qualifications we ask for more. This Saturday, the pilots fought an incredible battle in which Max Verstappen emerged victorious after an incredible last lap and at the end of which he was ahead of Fernando Alonso for 84 thousandths. Initially 3^e at the end of these qualifications, Charles Leclerc finally received a penalty on the starting grid for the Monaco Grand Prix.

Found guilty of obstructing Lando Norris in Q3, the driver of the Team Ferrari was penalized three places and will start 6^e. This did the business ofEsteban Ocon who gained a position immediately finding himself in the Top 3. Enough to hope for a very good result in the Principality this Sunday.

Winner of the Monaco Grand Prix last year, Sergio Pérez will have a hard time doubling the lead in 2023. Having made a mistake in Q1 at Sainte-Dévote, the Mexican heavily damaged his RB19 and will be dead last on the grid departure. Note that his team had to change the gearbox, the front and rear wings as well as the rear suspension. It could be very long for the pilot Red Bull.
