There was a huge surprise in the Formula Ones

Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc craves his first home race victory in Monaco on Sunday. Max Verstappen only crumbled to sixth.

The Formula 1 qualifying sessions in Monaco saw some much-needed color, when Red Bull, who leads the World Series by far Max Verstappen missed the pole position for the first time this season.

He had achieved seven consecutive pole positions before the Monaco Classic. The Monaco man rushed to square one Charles Leclercfor whom Paalupaikka is the third of his career in his home race.

However, the races themselves have been unlucky for the Ferrari driver, and he has not been able to win even once on the iconic street circuit. On Sunday, he will have an excellent seam for it, as it is almost impossible to overtake in Monaco.

– However, I know from previous experiences that the time trial is not everything. We have to make all the pieces fall into place in the race. In recent years, we have not succeeded in that. I still believe that we can achieve big things tomorrow, Leclerc stated.

McLaren’s youngster took second place Oscar Piastri before Ferrari Carlos Sainz. Verstappen’s name can be searched a bit on the grid, because he was only sixth.

McLaren also beat Verstappen Lando Norris and Mercedes George Russell.

Verstappen complained after his last fast move that he took a hit on the street track’s railings. Red Bull’s qualifying sessions went wrong as a whole, because Sergio Perez remained in the first section of the time trials, like last year. He was only 18.

Sauber’s pace was missing again. Valtteri Bottas was 19th, i.e. second to last before his teammate Zhou Guanyata.
