Ferrari fans at Monza will have an incredible spectacle to watch on Sunday, with Carlos Sainz Jr. claiming pole position in qualifying by the barest of margins ahead of Max Verstappen.

The pair will be hounded by Charles Leclerc in the other Ferrari, who qualified less than a tenth of a second behind them thanks to the team's impressive turn of straight line speed.

That straight line speed should help Sainz stay ahead of Verstappen in the track's few overtaking zones, as the latter aims to win a record tenth Formula 1 race in a row.

How does F1 Qualifying work?

So the 60-minute session is split into three segments - Q1, Q2 and Q3.

  • In Q1 the slowest 5 drivers are eliminated, leaving the fastest 15 to progress to Q2.

  • In Q2 the slowest 5 drivers are again eliminated, leaving the fastest 10 to progress to the shootout for pole position in Q3.

  • In Q3 the 10 drivers fill the top 10 grid positions with the order determined by their fastest lap.

  • The results from Qualifying do not always set the final grid for Sunday's race. Any grid penalties will be factored in before the final grid is confirmed hours before the race on Sunday.
