F1i brings you live coverage of qualifying for the Monaco Grand Prix.

While Lewis Hamilton was fastest in Thursday's practice sessions, it was Sebastian Vettel who set the pace in FP3 on Saturday morning to put himself firmly in the frame for pole position.

It looks set to be a fight between Vettel and the two Mercedes drivers following Kimi Raikkonen's crash in the final practice session. Raikkonen damaged the left rear of his car after hitting the barrier at Ste Devote, leaving him with little running on the supersoft tyre.

Max Verstappen is also one to watch, with the Toro Rosso rookie second in FP1 and looking quick all weekend but suffering a spin which damaged his rear wing in final practice.

You can follow live text commentary of the qualifying session here, while results and reaction will follow on the website after the chequered flag.
