Kimi Antonelli set the fastest time in final practice for the Monaco Grand Prix. The Mercedes driver posted a 1m12.720s lap to finish ahead of the Ferrari pair.
Antonelli was the only driver to break the 1m13s barrier in a session marked by multiple interruptions. Charles Leclerc placed second for Ferrari in 1m13.047s, just 0.004s ahead of teammate Lewis Hamilton. Ferrari had led the way in both Friday sessions but lost ground on Saturday morning as the track evolved. George Russell took fourth in the second Mercedes, with Max Verstappen fifth for Red Bull. The 60-minute session featured four red flags across the weekend’s practices. Oliver Bearman crashed at Massenet to bring out the latest stoppage with 14 minutes remaining.
