MONACO, May 26 -- Daniel Ricciardo took a dominant pole position for Red Bull in the Monaco Grand Prix on Saturday as his teammate Max Verstappen had earlier crashed in final practice.
Ricciardo topped all three sections of qualifying, setting a lap record in the process for only his second career pole. The other was also in Monaco, two years ago.
Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel qualified second ahead of championship leader Lewis Hamilton of Mercedes. Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen qualified fourth ahead of Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas.
Ricciardo was also fastest in all three practice sessions and the Australian driver will be confident of securing his second win after victory last month in China.
Verstappen crashed under no pressure moments from the end of Practice three. He sustained damage to his front wing and right front tire, while the suspension was broken.
Red Bull repaired his gearbox, meaning he incurred a five-place grid penalty. But it made no difference anyway as the car was not ready for qualifying.
The 20-year-old Dutch driver will start Sunday's race from last place.
