Ricciardo: Let's do this s**t
Daniel Ricciardo is determined to make up for his Monaco Grand Prix nightmare of 2016, after capping Red Bull's 2018 dominance of Monte Carlo with pole position. Ricciardo has topped the timesheets in all six sessions as he aims for a second win of the season.
Ricciardo's only previous F1 pole was here two years ago, when victory was taken from him by a botched pitstop.
Red Bull cars will bookend the field off the line, with Max Verstappen starting last after crashing in third practice.

However, they have been the team to beat all weekend and Ricciardo was in bullish mood after sealing P1.
After crossing the line, Ricciardo's radio message to his team was: "Fifty per cent done, let's do this s**t tomorrow."
He added on the pitlane: "It's good. We sent a statement on Thursday and have been quickest in every session. Just the race tomorrow and then we will celebrate.
"There is still a lot of fire in this belly. I've done everything I can so far, let's finish the job tomorrow. I'm pumped, it's been a good few days."
Verstappen's crash took some of the gloss off Ricciardo's performance for Red Bull team principal Christian Horner.
He told Sky Sports: "Daniel's been on it all weekend, he's been quickest in every session, every qualifying piece and he's delivered two great laps which were capable of pole. He's done an amazing job.
"It feels a little bittersweet. We're delighted with pole but we should have had two cars up there. It's frustrating with such a fast car not to have both cars on the front row of the grid.
