Daniel Ricciardo is seen racing through the streets of Monte Carlo on The National Sport front page Sunday, May 29 as the Red Bull driver clinched pole position – the first of his career – for the Monaco Grand Prix on Friday.

The Australian racer will be joined on the front row by championship leader Nico Rosberg, with Rosberg’s Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, who has not won at the principality since 2008, looking to start in third place on the grid.

Ricciardo’s emphatic lap marked the first pole position for Red Bull since the 2013 Brazilian Grand Prix.
