Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo will start the Monaco Grand Prix at the front of the grid after cruising to pole position in Saturday's final qualifying session.

Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo will start the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday in pole position after dominating qualifying in the South of France.

Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel beat Lewis Hamilton to register in second place, while Mercedes's Hamilton will start the showpiece in third, as he aims to strengthen his grip at the top of the leaderboard.
