Antonelli on Monaco Pole as Márquez and Guevara Top Grids in Hungary

Overview

• Kimi Antonelli secured pole position in Monte Carlo on Saturday, earning P1 for Sunday’s Monaco Grand Prix and reinforcing his lead in the drivers’ standings.
• Gabriel Bortoleto crashed in Q1 at Monaco, damaged the front-left suspension, recorded no competitive Q3 time and will start 16th while Audi repairs the car overnight.
• Marc Márquez took MotoGP pole at Balaton Park with a 1:36.785 lap and will lead a front row completed by Pedro Acosta and Fermín Aldeguer, while Izan Guevara claimed Moto2 pole with a 1:40.280 lap.
• Support-series results set the weekend narrative: Noel León won the Formula 2 Sprint in Monaco and Théophile Naël earned F3 pole, and Máximo Quiles led Moto3 qualifying to shape those race grids.
• Mercedes’ Saturday performance jump, Antonelli’s fourth pole this season, and the tight, low‑overtake layout of Monaco make grid position decisive and leave teams focused on race starts and strategy for tomorrow.
