Leclerc has so far dominated around the streets of the principality where he was born and raised, securing a deserved 14th pole position of his F1 career.

Leclerc is joined on the front row by Ferrari team-mate Carlos Sainz, with the second row an all-Red Bull affair, but with Sergio Perez ahead of Max Verstappen who has so far struggled this weekend.
