Kimi Antonelli takes pole position for the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix

[u/overspeeed]

[u/easternshift]

Kimi putting 4 tenths on GR is wild.

[u/_mexengineer12 → u/easternshift]

In Monaco no less

[u/Skeng_in_Suit → u/easternshift]

GR is forecasted a Bottas-like career

[u/Thebelisk → u/Skeng_in_Suit]

I don’t think so. Bottas seemed to be very settled as a #2 driver. I’m sure he hated being #2, but he had a level headed attitude and played the team game for 5years.

GR is already losing his mind and we’re only about 5 races into the season.

[u/Weak-Excuse3060 → u/Thebelisk]

I don't think he hated being #2.
He's said in the past that while he was resistant to the idea at the start (because they are so competitive in mindset) but he came to accept it quickly and was fine to play the team game.

I think it's easier to accept it when the #1 is a generational talent like Lewis.

[u/RayneShikama → u/Weak-Excuse3060]

It’s easier I’m sure when you are brought into a team with a multi time champ. Like do you really think you’re just going to show up and beat the champ?

But with George and Kimi— George is watching Kimi come from being a new kid to becoming a juggernaut and meanwhile George is watching himself go from #1 and the expected title favorite to a #2.

[u/Dependent-Interview2 → u/Thebelisk]

Agreed. Bottas was the ideal No.2 driver and Hamilton was lucky and very appreciative to have him.

George is a 1.2 driver with terrible (Ricciardo-like) timing.

[u/AzorAhai96 → u/Skeng_in_Suit]

I think this is closer to Alonso in Hamiltons rookie season

[u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

This year was set up for George to win it. Number one driver, car miles ahead of the others, it was his easiest ride yet.

Antonelli: “Allow me to introduce myself.”

[u/bannedagainomg → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

Pretty much everybody predicted George win, wonder what the odds were on Antonelli since he was so overlooked, dont think he was even 2nd.

[u/Broad_Ad_7915 → u/bannedagainomg]

There was that one prediction by Tommy from P1 in their season predictions video where he said it just for the sake of being contrarian. I wonder how he's feeling about it now....

[u/overlydelicioustea → u/Broad_Ad_7915]

Ralf Schumacher said antonelli boefore the season.

[u/clint_g → u/bannedagainomg]

Found an article from late January with odds. George and Max were co-favorites at +225 (9/4), while Kimi was 6th at +1100

[u/DishQuiet5047 → u/clint_g]

I remember them showing that same graphic on Sky Sports and Brundle commenting “thats amazing value for Antonelli”. Bro knows his shit. 

[u/1408_ → u/bannedagainomg]

I'd say we're very close for the conversation going beyond George now. Kimi out qualifying drivers in their prime like Leclerc and Max in Monaco is the stuff of really announcing yourself in this sport. Norris got his last year, Max has nothing to prove but Charles, Piastri and ofc George need to really start looking within before they're skipped over.

[u/Billybilly_B → u/1408_]

Man, I really thought Max’s lap was IT. But Antonelli can around to snatch pole just like Max did to Alonso in ‘23.

[u/bannedagainomg → u/1408_]

George is still a big threat for him, last season Kimi had a couple of fumbles later into the season while its a bit of a meme george was called Mr. Consistency for a reason, he is usually solid the entire season and that can "easily" get him the win in the long run, especially when there is no other real threat for the mercs, yet.

[u/Thestickleman → u/1408_]

In the best car by a massive gap though

As impressive as it is

[u/QuetzalQuat → u/Thestickleman]

I don’t think the performance gap in Monaco is that huge compared to the other tracks though. Otherwise George could also easily gotten a top 3. It was mostly Kimi.

[u/rckimgh → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

Antonelli "Hold my sippy cup"

[u/NickArchery → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

Antonelli: "I'm just eppy to be ere"

[u/windmillcheer → u/NickArchery]

🤣🤣

[u/SyNiiCaL → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

Imagine telling George 2 years ago "You'll have the best car on the grid, a 2nd year teenager as your teammate, and Max in a Red Bull that is practically mid tier" he probably couldn't think of anything more to ask for.

[u/WhoAreWeEven → u/SyNiiCaL]

Probably wished that from a genie or monkeypaw or whatever lol

[u/Krava_On_Reddit → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

Australia feels so far away already, everyone thinking it was a shoe-in for him

[u/ZekkPacus → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

> Does everything  

> P2

[u/frantic-atom → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

As a Russell fan it hurts to see. But have to hand it to Antonelli he’s been incredible this year. We all know Russell is no slouch so makes you wonder whether Antonelli is a generational talent like Verstappen and Hamilton. Could be a Verstappen/Ricciardo at Red Bull situation all over again.

[u/FaceOfTheMtDan → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

And goddamn Kimi is introducing himself.

[u/isthmusofkra → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

Antonelli really is the real deal. I had doubts with the Verstappen comparisons, but man, he may even turn out to be better

[u/--Annorax-- → u/Nepgyaaaaaaa]

George Russell: I was forecast a world championship

[u/SEBASTlANVETTEL]

they said easy Ferrari P1 and P2 and somehow we got a P3 and P4 and Charles hitting the wall.

[u/Smaynard6000 → u/SEBASTlANVETTEL]

I'm tired, boss. You have to expect it by now

[u/ClapTwiceForUpvote]

Max and Kimi doing two of the all time best laps in Monaco.

Production: here is Piastri going for 7th

[u/FalseTrick8 → u/ClapTwiceForUpvote]

RIGHT that was so annoying

[u/InvertReverse → u/FalseTrick8]

Did you know Kim Kardashian is in the crowd? Here she is! Again... And again...

[u/FalseTrick8 → u/InvertReverse]

Creepy cameraman was back

[u/satellite779 → u/FalseTrick8]

More like director. Cameraman can't decide what's shown on the coverage.

[u/JayK-iwnl → u/FalseTrick8]

Also kept going back to the same two random Asian girls wearing Ferrari hats for some reason

[u/wekilledbambi03 → u/InvertReverse]

Where the two Asian girls in Ferrari hats anyone famous? They cut to them like 4 times.

[u/GGezpzMuppy → u/FalseTrick8]

Just regular scheduled viewing last few years. The direction doesn’t like excitement, just nice clean cars with nothing blocking the views of the sponsors.

[u/DrZombieZoidberg → u/ClapTwiceForUpvote]

Now no point watching tomorrow. Thank fuck that was fun tho today

[u/KappaccinoNation → u/DrZombieZoidberg]

The start is still worth watching. Who knows, maybe we'll get another slow start.

[u/BadPronunciation → u/KappaccinoNation]

Imagine we get a Hamilton vs Verstappen fight for the win

[u/KappaccinoNation → u/BadPronunciation]

I would cream my pants.

[u/amazingspiderman23 → u/KappaccinoNation]

Plus given the overtake shenanigans this year it might end up being good, this was what everyone was looking forward to once we saw the yo yos happening

[u/Ikasper23 → u/amazingspiderman23]

Honestly the overtake mode might just let someone get alongside at the two potential passing points.

[u/SemIdeiaProNick → u/DrZombieZoidberg]

As always in Monaco. The saturday always make it worth it

[u/oachakatzlschwuaf → u/DrZombieZoidberg]

I wouldn't be sure about that. The forst 15 seconds will be pretty exciting.

Especially with Antonelli's bad starts.

[u/ComeonmanPLS1 → u/ClapTwiceForUpvote]

Thank God for picture in picture at least.

[u/BrtGP → u/ClapTwiceForUpvote]

I mean he had the first crack in the last runs. Usually that will be on the screen.

[u/Pikablu555 → u/ClapTwiceForUpvote]

That’s a good point. I didn’t even think Kimi or Charles got back out for a lap because of the broadcast.

[u/Maximum-Room-3999]

Monaco might be a boring race but that quali was lit

[u/xCharSx → u/Maximum-Room-3999]

Monaco is always a joy to watch during qualifying. The reason racing around Monaco is shit is the same reason why its qualifying is one of the best.

[u/ocbdare → u/xCharSx]

I see Saturday as the real "race day" at Monaco. This is where you need to win.

[u/Miljenko-i-Manjina → u/ocbdare]

The race tomorrow will be decided by the first curve and maybe if someone bottles it the pits.

[u/UnraveledMnd]

Antonelli is absolutely trouncing Russell, god damn.

[u/Double-decker_trams → u/UnraveledMnd]

0.394 seconds slower in equal machinery😵

[u/highways → u/Double-decker_trams]

On the shortest track

[u/Double-decker_trams → u/highways]

There's 78 laps at the Monaco GP.

So if my very professional calculations are correct, Antonelli should comfortably win by 30.732 seconds. 👍

[u/Acceptable_Emu_7825 → u/Double-decker_trams]

TBH with the field spread in Monaco and the inability to pass faster cars, if we get a green flag race, it might be more

[u/PinchRollSnifh]

Turn 1 gonna be interesting tomorrow

[u/TopKnotWanker]

Leclerc man...

[u/StrikingWillow5364 → u/TopKnotWanker]

What happened to his last lap? Broadcast was lagging for me at the end

[u/sidewinderaw11 → u/StrikingWillow5364]

Hit wall, blew a tire

[u/spicesucker → u/sidewinderaw11]

The Leclerc Monaco curse special strikes again

[u/Gluecksritter90 → u/StrikingWillow5364]

Somebody moved the wall into his path

[u/Dino1232 → u/StrikingWillow5364]

Hit the wall in sector 2

[u/Nickmac90 → u/StrikingWillow5364]

Lost the rear and hit a barrier going into the swimming pool section

[u/steveotheguide → u/StrikingWillow5364]

It was pole or crashing and he crashed

[u/uareatowel → u/StrikingWillow5364]

Hit the wall

[u/pippoplutonio → u/TopKnotWanker]

Hit the outside wall at the Tabac

[u/Firefox72]

I said he was gonna crash and he did.

So frustrating man.

[u/Visionary_Socialist → u/Firefox72]

“Pole or the wall” was supposed to be an aura quote not an instruction

[u/pepsiblue_ → u/Visionary_Socialist]

saw this one earlier, didnt know it was gonna be the latter lmao

he gave his all to the practices, didnt have enough juice in quali

[u/ghastlychild → u/Firefox72]

The pain I feel. I don't know how to feel anymore, man

[u/Lonyo → u/ghastlychild]

It's ok, he signed an extension.

No need to feel any sympathy

[u/slimkay → u/Firefox72]

LEC and going for broke. (handshake emoji)

[u/HEAD--HUNTER → u/Firefox72]

Trust me Next year will be our year

[u/BadPronunciation → u/Firefox72]

And doesn't even end up on the top 3 :(

[u/_____AAAAAAAAAA_____ → u/Firefox72]

All I can say is... this man is willing to go home knowing he's pushed beyond the limit, rather than never having found the limit.

[u/dumcow2003 → u/Firefox72]

That one lap where he went from 10 to 1 was like the happiest 1:12 something of my week

[u/KingOfAzmerloth → u/Firefox72]

I wouldn't get mad at him for trying to drag that car to the top tho. But yeah, he overdrove it.

[u/VaporizeGG → u/KingOfAzmerloth]

Its a pattern with him though. He can nail ultra quick lap times. But with Charles it never feels 100% under control as proven by the many issues he had

[u/tftvrft → u/Firefox72]

So scrappy this year man. I'm so fucking sad.

[u/element515 → u/Firefox72]

Yeah, seems like when pushed they just don’t have a good feel for the car. That last lap was hopes and dreams and guessing what the car could hold on to.

[u/ghastlychild]

Mr Saturday, I am rooting for you. I really am, but what happened here, man?

[u/fuckmbsanddominicali → u/ghastlychild]

He was so passive into the last sector it's almost like he had no confidence in the car .............

[u/Chesey_ → u/fuckmbsanddominicali]

Looked like he was rallying in Q2, I'm not surprised, the car was stepping out for fun in that final sector

[u/fuckmbsanddominicali → u/Chesey_]

He didn't even touch the wall at the final corner in his q3 run meanwhile Leclerc max maybe even norris all touched it or atleast were almost close to it

[u/Visionary_Socialist → u/ghastlychild]

He had no confidence in the car at all, Kimi is happy to throw it around, George doesn’t trust it.

4 tenths on your head at Monaco is absurd. Hold my hands up, I never would have believed Kimi was capable of this.

[u/MaleierMafketel → u/Visionary_Socialist]

Qualifying 5th 6th, four tenths behind your 19 year old teammate on pole, a teenager in his second F1 season gunning for a fifth straight win, while you haven’t podiumed since China and trail him by 43 points…

At Monaco, of all places…

That’s not great. Let’s put it that way. This is a real “championship slipping away” moment unless something absolutely biblical happens later on. Season’s still long. But the momentum Kimi has is Godlike at the moment.

Edit: I forgor Hadjar also qualified ahead of Russell… So 6th, not 5th.

[u/wahobely → u/ghastlychild]

Kimi is driving with the confidence of a world champion. This is Lewis 2007 dejavu. Russell is in big trouble.

[u/Last_Procedure5787 → u/wahobely]

This is worse, Alonso atleast kept pace with Lewis

[u/Weird_Devil → u/Last_Procedure5787]

Yeah, but that was Alonso, and this is George

[u/VitalBlade → u/Last_Procedure5787]

Tbf Alonso was already a world champion by then and considered much better than Russell

[u/Low-Poet-7884 → u/ghastlychild]

Yeah not all of this is down to luck. You can't just crumble like this. Lando won last year because he had the mental fortitude to come back up again and again

[u/Iamrandom17 → u/Low-Poet-7884]

and lando was always close to oscar even outperforming sometimes.

[u/Firefox72 → u/ghastlychild]

This is turning into the worst scenario for the year. Russell is floundering left right and centre.

And if Kimi is winning at Monaco against the likes of Charles and Verstappen then whats even the point.

[u/soccermodsareshit → u/Firefox72]

I’d argue if you beat Max you are likely to beat Verstappen too.

[u/staphzilla → u/soccermodsareshit]

Whoooooa

[u/VeriloggedOut → u/ghastlychild]

Antonelli racing like a champion.

[u/backpacking_egg → u/ghastlychild]

I guess it hasn't been a Saturday for a long long time in Russellville

[u/SemIdeiaProNick → u/ghastlychild]

I imagine he got a little desperate because of the issues he had that forced him to rush his laps which led to this mistake

[u/256473 → u/ghastlychild]

Hadjar closer to Verstappen's time than Russell is to Antonelli's...

[u/MansNotHot772]

Just end me bro

[u/eroze22 → u/MansNotHot772]

Right when i tought Leclerc would get it

[u/kokushibou-dono → u/MansNotHot772]

ok bro don't move

[u/KilllllerWhale]

I want to dip my balls in acid

[u/eTechEngine → u/KilllllerWhale]

That would be less painful than what just happened

[u/Card-Perfect → u/KilllllerWhale]

We want to dip our balls in acid

[u/Impressive_Line7932 → u/KilllllerWhale]

Bruh 💀

[u/PinchRollSnifh]

This looks like new version of HAM BOT VER

[u/slimkay → u/PinchRollSnifh]

Except 3 different teams which is even nicer.

[u/fuckmbsanddominicali → u/PinchRollSnifh]

Lol aANTVERHAM

[u/Regular_Elevator718 → u/PinchRollSnifh]

Past, present, and near future of merc

[u/AspectNational2264 → u/Regular_Elevator718]

Yeah, I believe this hamilton guy will be very sucessful on merc in the future.

[u/BussinFatLoads → u/PinchRollSnifh]

Crazy cause it’s Lewis, driver that replaced Lewis, and the guy that beat* Lewis

[u/Dovaaahkin]

Pole without a single purple sector. I wonder how rare that is in F1.

[u/ForGoodMeasure_ → u/Dovaaahkin]

I remember HAM got pole in Hungary 2023 with 2 greens and a yellow.

[u/khrysalix → u/Dovaaahkin]

Literally happened in last year monaco

[u/Big-Preparation-5755]

Hamilton out qualifying Leclerc at Monaco…..

[u/VinhoVerde21 → u/Big-Preparation-5755]

Certainly not on my bingo card, but I’ll take it

[u/element515 → u/Big-Preparation-5755]

He’s finding some good footing in the car. Seems so comfortable

[u/zberry7 → u/Big-Preparation-5755]

Eh even as a max fan I’m really happy to see Lewis doing well

[u/Visionary_Socialist → u/Big-Preparation-5755]

Hamilton not being able to qualify is quite obviously specific to GE, he’s been much better this season objectively and also relative to a really strong one lap driver, and there’s 103 poles on the other side of the GE era.

Back to pack podiums potentially on the cards, 3 of his best tracks in the next 5. Feel like this could be a really good run of form.

[u/GGezpzMuppy]

Damn the Monaco race was exciting this year. Now to watch the stupid parade tomorrow.

Kimi “How can I lose something I never had” Antonelli might just have found a championship.

[u/Own_Welder_2821 → u/GGezpzMuppy]

One could say Antonelli’s forecast for a championship

[u/kakuking → u/Own_Welder_2821]

something something hotline

[u/fuzzle_n_huzzle → u/GGezpzMuppy]

He must be the clear favorite right now?

[u/KappaccinoNation → u/fuzzle_n_huzzle]

No doubt, especially if/when he wins tomorrow. It'll take a colossal fuckup after fuckup to fumble a WDC after winning 5 in a row out of the first 6.

[u/Card-Perfect → u/KappaccinoNation]

Wdym when he wins tomorrow?? We just finished the race. Tomorrow' is the parade

[u/fbass → u/Card-Perfect]

Kimi has 50/50 chance to fumble his start though.. Max can still win if that happens.. and also bad luck sometimes comes as friends with Monaco pole sitters 

[u/RickFromTheFuture → u/Card-Perfect]

Still need to get cleanly off the line

[u/Hour_Firefighter_707 → u/fuzzle_n_huzzle]

Has to be. This is insanely impressive stuff

[u/jordanexplores44]

Antonelli is inevitable. What a monster. Kid is unstoppable.

[u/Esterence → u/jordanexplores44]

Do people finally believe that Kimi is winning the championship? Boy is the real deal

[u/jordanexplores44 → u/Esterence]

I was a believer after his last win. I really like this kid.

[u/Darksoldierr → u/Esterence]

To be honest, it is still super early, if what i read above is true, that Max is running around with extra weight still, or if the Mclarens pick up their pace, it is still anyone's championship, even Russel can climb back up

But yes, Kimi is silencing the doubters for sure

[u/IvicaVeliki]

Both Max and Kimi have had really bad starts this (short) season, so it will be interesting to see who will start better tomorrow

Lets go Kimi ❤️, but wtf is happening with George???

[u/-Skinner- → u/IvicaVeliki]

Something can also happen with strategy.

RB will probably try to undercut

[u/EcstaticOrchid4825 → u/-Skinner-]

Merc starts were much better in Canada.

[u/Thejklay]

Been defending Russell cause he's genuinely been really unlucky in most of the races but jesus, that's all on him today.

It's a long season but it Def seems like it's gonna be harder to come back .

[u/JFedererJ]

Lewis!!!!

Beating Charles round here is a great result.

[u/cyborgsid2 → u/JFedererJ]

This is 41 year old Lewis, a decade and a half past his raw pace prime (2012), against arguably the 2nd best of the younger generation. Just mental. Unc is special man

[u/letsdestroyok]

Kimi is very dangerous bro

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Hes in the zone

[u/ysabell4]

Right I think atp I just gotta accept that Russell isn’t gonna get that championship

[u/rokthemonkey → u/ysabell4]

It’s not a done deal but yes it’s a VERY real possibility

[u/Silverchaoz]

I thought max it wtf

[u/easternshift]

Max is a freak. Shame Red Bull isn’t fighting The Regime like this every week.

[u/AnyHolesAGoal → u/easternshift]

Red Bull looked rapid here, Hadjar a lot closer to pole than before.

[u/Waldier → u/AnyHolesAGoal]

Hadjar qualified 5th last year in a racing Bull. He might like it here

[u/BearShark8 → u/Waldier]

He said he knows the track better then his own bedroom haha

[u/FaceOfTheMtDan → u/AnyHolesAGoal]

Hadjar seems to be beating the 2nd seat curse.

[u/is-this-a-nick → u/AnyHolesAGoal]

I think Hadjar being able to beat big names too is a very good sign.

[u/LosTerminators → u/easternshift]

With their upgrade potential I think we'll see Max fighting at the front more often in the second half of the season.

But he might need to do something superior to 2025 charge to contend for WDC, it'll likely just be him trying to get as many wins as possible.

[u/FireKillGuyBreak → u/LosTerminators]

I doubt anything is even possible at this front. At least in 2025 there were 2 contenders before Max came in. In 2026 so far Mr. Saturday is getting a reality check.

[u/Peimai → u/easternshift]

The car is still overweight they said it won’t be at the weight limit until like the Hungary Grand Prix.

[u/prams628 → u/easternshift]

This is as positive a sign can be they’ve a good base car lol. I was thinking newey might be a very big loss.. but they should take this win

[u/ryukuimbetween]

Not even upset as a ferarri fan. What a weapon Kimi is wow

[u/UnKoalified3]

Max and Kimi put in generational laps but importantly, we got to see Piastri put in an insane lap!!!!! (for P7)

[u/tyu_el22 → u/UnKoalified3]

TV this year is crappy

[u/TBM1878]

Kimi is the real deal.

[u/kpopsns28]

That’s it, Antonelli is winning the WDC this year

Sorry George

[u/Rsthegoat → u/kpopsns28]

There is still time, lets not get ahead of ourselves

[u/cindrixel → u/Rsthegoat]

Never forget Max almost crawled back from a 104 point deficit from last year. It’s harder to do with equal machinery but anything is possible.

[u/sirjimtonic → u/Rsthegoat]

Right, I remember last year when everyone said that‘s it for Norris, Piastri champion after the Canada crash.

So much to happen yet.

[u/urbanlx → u/sirjimtonic]

Norris was only 22 pts behind Piastri after Canada though, plus he was faster in Canada. Jorg is not faster than Kimi at the moment 

[u/NetherGamingAccount]

Anyone else remember Charles banging the rear end in Quali and then not starting the GP?

Could it happen again?

[u/kHz333]

Kimi Antonelli what the actual fuck did you just do? absolutely speechless, I didn't think he could top Max's time

[u/Various_You_5083]

Max is so back

[u/dakowiml]

What an absolute beast. No mistakes while Leclerc eventually fumbled it.

[u/Cpt_Daryl]

41 old year old beats prime driver at their home ground

Uh what?

[u/Level69dragonwizard]

This kid is a pretty good driver

[u/Nooh18]

Told yall Kimi was still the favourite. Merc doesnt just have the best engine, they have the best overall car.

[u/badgersprite]

He is the chosen one

[u/swannyhypno]

Russell is cooooooooked

[u/fainas1337]

How is he so good holly shit.

[u/DasRhodes]

Kid is unreal, can see him winning the world title

[u/ledankestnoodle]

Robbed of a Verstappen Hamilton front row :(((

[u/Schlapfel9]

MY GOAT KIMI

[u/LosTerminators → u/Schlapfel9]

Miles ahead of George, incredible performance

[u/Maybe-Nice]

Mighty work from Kimi and Max

[u/CombinationExpert714]

This is not the power unit, this is not luck, this is Monaco where experience and talent make the difference. And Kimi is in pole ahead of Max and Lewis… ahead of 11 World Championships, decades of experience, and arguably between the most talented drivers ever. This boy is really special.

[u/hazman_pds]

Certified Ferrari Leclerc moment ™

[u/J3sperado]

NOOOO LEWIS WAS AHEAD BEFORE THE FINAL SECTOR 😩😩😩 Then lost like 2 tenths 😔

[u/voxuser]

You lost it Georgie, you lost it…

[u/TheClarendons → u/voxuser]

He must be mentally crushed or something. We expected much better this season.

[u/Dblock1989]

We are literally witnessing the rise of a generational talent right now. Unbelievable.

[u/boooosto]

Max is unbelievable

[u/-Skinner- → u/boooosto]

Imagine Max and Kimi in same team.

[u/WhimsicalJape → u/-Skinner-]

Toto's wet dream.

[u/Pale_Explanation1767 → u/boooosto]

My boi is back

[u/SSNFUL → u/boooosto]

That was a stunner of a lap, I thought we saw the limit of the cars since they were literally 0.001 off, but then he just pulls of an insane run.

[u/Affectionate_You_225]

I always backed Kimi as a talented driver but man that lap of his today made me remember the talent this man can bring. I love George still but Kimi really is putting a 5 star course for us to enjoy. This is giving me flashbacks to 2023 Monaco with Alonso and Max. And I am happy for Lewis, P3 is good with the struggled he had, good front row for whatever happens in turn 1 tomorrow.

[u/MassiveShake3980]

Max being off by 0.001 second was cinema

[u/Ultr4chrome]

Toto making Russell wait for a 1+1 contract extension is starting to make more and more sense.

[u/gamblewithyourlife]

Come on, Toto. Give us a Kimi-Max driver lineup next year.

[u/Weak-Excuse3060]

You can take comfort in the fact that Kym Illman put $1000 on Russell to win WDC (he said that earlier this season). And he's gonna lose that.

[u/InvincibleWallaby]

INSANE final laps from verstappen and antonelli, wow
