Red Bull Racing had a satisfying qualification for the Monaco Grand Prix. Max Verstappen will start the race from fourth place, while teammate Daniel Ricciardo starts right behind in P5.

Team principal Christian Horner comments after qualifying: “It was certainly an exciting Qualifying. To end up fourth and fifth only three tenths off pole position here in Monaco demonstrates more progress for us. Max has looked competitive all weekend so far and put in everything he could today. With Daniel we opted to do a one lap run with him at the end. Perhaps a build push would have been better, but it was very, very marginal to which was the preferred strategy, but hopefully we are in a position to capitalise on those grid positions in tomorrow’s grand prix.”
