Charles Leclerc will start the Monaco Grand Prix from pole position, having set the fastest lap of qualifying on his first and only attempt in Saturday's session.
The hour ended in chaos as a result of Sergio Perez crashing his Red Bull at Portier, with Carlos Sainz hitting his Ferrari into the sideways Red Bull just a few seconds later.
The resulting blockage meant the red flags were shown, with Leclerc taking his second consecutive Monaco pole position in similar circumstances.
It's an all-Ferrari front row, with Sainz starting alongside Leclerc, while the Red Bulls will attack from behind with Perez and Max Verstappen occupying third and fourth place respectively.
Lando Norris led the battle for best of the rest, with the McLaren driver pipping Mercedes' George Russell for fifth.
The starting grid below is provisional until confirmed by F1's governing body, the FIA.
