Kimi Raikkonen took pole position on Saturday for the Monaco Formula One Grand Prix, edging out Ferrari team-mate Sebastian Vettel.

Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas will start Sunday's famous race from third with Max Verstappen fourth in a Red Bull.

Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton, six points behind leader Vettel in the standings, was only 14th fastest in qualifying and was dumped out in Q2 after a crash by McLaren's Stoffel Vandoorne meant Hamilton had no time left to set a top 10 time.

He is set to start from 13th on the grid, aware that overtaking is hugely difficult on the tight, winding street circuit.

McLaren's Jenson Button, making a one-off comeback to F1 with Fernando Alonso racing in the Indianapolis 500, will start from the back of the grid because of a power-unit penalty despite producing an astonishing display by qualifying ninth fastest.
