Verstappen’s best lap was 1 minute 53.159 seconds. Second place went to Monaco’s Charles Leclerc (Ferrari; +0.595), third place went to Mexico’s Sergio Perez (Red Bull; +0.606).
Championship leader Verstappen, despite winning qualifying, will start the race from 11th, having already been given a 10-position penalty due to an engine change. Thus, pole position belongs to Leclerc.
