Kimi Raikkonen set the quickest lap in qualifying in Monaco, with German teammate Sebastian Vettel set to start the race in second. His pole lap of 1 minute 12.178 seconds is the fastest ever set around the renowned principality’s street circuit. His qualifying was spoiled late in the second session, when McLaren’s Stoffel Vandoorne crashed at the exit of the swimming pool complex. “I’m happy, my one and only qualifying session this year and I’m ninth… and start 20th,” Button joked afterwards. Despite Vandoorne’s crash, the Belgian will start ninth.
