Monaco – Lando Norris overcame Monaco A busy record, his main rival 1, and a local champion to occupy the position of pole on Saturday.
Perhaps more importantly, Norris achieved a breakthrough in his struggles F1 The qualifiers, which hindered the championship champions against his teammate McCaren, Oscar Pasri.
“It has been a long time.”
Norris added: “I don’t think I was doubting what I could do. Of course, I was frustrated, I was unhappy, because this is normal,” Norris added. “If you don’t win, if you don’t get a pole, you will not be happy, especially when the place where you should be, this is the goal.”
Norris and Monaco Local Charles Lukelerek exchanged the fastest times before Norris increased again to take first by 109 per second. Pasri was third.

Defend the hero of Max Versaben, Emilia-Romagna GP award winner Last week, Red Paul ranked after predicting the low -speed nature of Monaco, which will not match his car, but starts fourth with a penalty kick by Luis Hamilton.
Changing the base makes sweat uncertain
The qualifiers are usually more important in Monaco than anywhere in the F1 calendar. It is almost impossible to cross the narrow streets, so the network mode is vital.
It may be a little different this time because the drivers will be asked for that Change the tires at least twice During the race.
“I don’t think anyone really knows what to expect,” said Piasstri.
This base change follows a boring race last year when the early red flag allowed all drivers to stop the mandatory hole. The race ended with the best 10 in the same order that they started the race.
Hamilton punished and Mercedes is frustrated
Hamilton cost the world champion seven times, as it was dropped from fourth to seventh place on the network for the Verstapen road.
In the first part of the qualifiers, the Hamilton team was told by the Ferrari team that Versabpen was in a slower bosom, when the Dutch driver was already trying to put a competitive time.
Hamilton was forced to make room for the fastest car, but misunderstanding means that the British driver was on the way Verstapen on the race line, where he achieved a penalty of three places in the network due to a disability.
Until then, the fourth place for Hilmon appeared to be a strong recovery in the wake of a collision in the practice that required a large rebuilding from Ferrari.
It was a session to forget Mercedes because its cars caused two red flags.
George Russell is scheduled to start in the fourteenth place after his car collapsed in the tunnel with a suspected electrical problem, which caused a long stop while it was removed from the road by the Marshal crew. His 18 -year -old teammate Kimi Antonelli hit the wall and was fifteenth.
Haas Al -Sa’id, Oliver Berman, qualified in the seventeenth place, but he fell to the back of the network due to a 10 -place penalty imposed on Friday to overcome it under the red flags when stopping the practice.
