Mark Hughes: 'Leclerc is Senna-like at Monaco but his Ferrari's a dud' |

This only became clear as McLaren turned up its power unit in qualifying. Up until then Leclerc had headed every practice session and was particularly stunning through Tabac corner, a gear up on everyone else and carrying and advantage of 5km/h (3mph) over the next fastest.
