Liveblog: Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix - Qualifying

2019-05-25 14:28:00 by Matt Gretton

It's the most important session of the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix weekend. Qualifying. With overtaking limited in the streets of Monte Carlo, this session is extra important. Who will get on that P1? Who will lead the midfield? Let us know your predictions! 

What's happened so far?

Well, that awkward gap on a Friday has passed. On Thursday, Lewis Hamilton finished top of the timesheets twice. Max Verstappen pushed Valtteri Bottas down to P3 in the first session, but the Finn was only narrowly defeated in FP2. The battle between Bottas and Hamilton looks close this weekend. Meanwhile, Ferrari looked off the pace. Sebastian Vettel looked more competitive in FP2, but only until the Silver Arrows slipped their soft tyres on. And Charles Leclerc finished way down in P10. 

The rest of the field looks just as tight as Bottas and Hamilton. Alex Albonhad a really good Thursday, he could be one to watch later on this afternoon. Both Alfa Romeo drivers look quick, as does Haas. It was the usual Renault, Racing Point and Williams filling up the bottom of the table.
