Lewis Hamilton issues brutal 2026 F1 car finding after Monaco qualifying thriller

Lewis Hamilton qualified third for the Monaco Grand Prix, briefly appearing to have pole position before being beaten by Max Verstappen and Andrea Kimi Antonelli, who secured pole with a superb lap. Hamilton described the current F1 cars as among his least favourite to drive around Monaco, citing reduced downforce and higher tyre pressures compared to previous generations. His Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc will start fourth alongside him on the grid for Sunday's race.
