Love Monaco or hate it.
That was the best qualifying for a long time.

A monster of a last sector from max
How the hell is Max 3 tenths up on everyone else in just Rasscas.
What a sector 3 from Max!
Amazing qualifications, shame Alonso didn't finish P1.

Unbelievable last sector by Max. Get an onboard of that!
what a stunning last lap for Max
One of the best qualifying.
Max pinballing the wall and still P1 
One of the best Q3's in some time, the race will be a bit of a snooze fest tomorrow, but that last 12 minutes was box office.
Most fun quali in a long while
Qualifying never been an issue at Monaco, it’s the race which will be a snooze fest.
Honestly, that's the best dry qualifying session I've seen in F1 in a very, very long time.
Take a bow Max. Fecking hell. Exciting qualy that's for sure.
Quick shower tomorrow, Red Bull fecking up their strategy and we can have mega race.
Insane laps from the top 3 though.
Hope the race not boring.
Not holding my breath, hard to past here, if Max gets off well and clean he will win with ease.

Agreed , but that was one of the best I have seen.
Alonso S3 not good enough.
It's a Red Bull sandwich
That's Maria Sharapova 
Monaco GP Qualifying Times
Perez and Red Bull will be furious having to stick a new gear box in for the race.
If it doesn't rain it'll be a huge struggle to even get in the points.

Alonso must fancy his chances tomorrow, starts have been Verstappen's only (very minor) weakness this season.
Leclerc in trouble for impeding Lando.
Max is an absolute beast. Honestly just incredible.
I keep hare about rain, Leclerc mentioned it, there is only a 20% chance.

I am not Max's biggest fan, but fir play to him that was a monster lap to grab Pole.
Agreed. In any other car than that RB, he would have been in the wall. The way that car sticks to the track is just incredible.
Such a shame for alonso, hopefully he can put max under pressure tomorrow.
It wasn’t a perfect lap by Max, but it was a monster final sector. Must have taken four tenths from everyone else?
I’d love to see Max’s start finish speed trap speed, as I think we were allowed another glimpse of the RB with DRS and the engine mode on full.

Nowt to do with the start finish straight or DRS. It's the fast chicanes and traction out of the last two corners.
How do you know that? Did they do a side by side where Max was behind and then ahead before the DRS zone?
No but the distance the DRS is open for is like 250m before the finish line, will have had almost no impact. Time will have all been gained before that.
This interesting, hamilton quoted as going against team advise for Q3 and changing the setup so it was more orientated for the race rather than qually.
Whatever the change was it switched the car from being faster in S1 and S3, to making it faster in S2 for the race instead.
Why? The only reason i can think of is that he wants to be quicker in S2 coming out of the tunnel, towards the bus stop chicane.

So everyone finally gets to see Red Bull's floor, which means we can see others catching up next year?
Depends on how much the other teams spend on catering.
Leclerc 3 place penalty. Impeding Norris in the tunnel. Ferrari really seem to have problems informing their drivers what is happening out there.
