What happened: Scuderia Ferrari said its cars completed soft-tyre laps and moved to the top of the leaderboard, with @LewisHamilton P1 and @Charles_Leclerc P2. The post came during Friday running at the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix weekend.
Why it matters: Monaco practice carries extra weight because qualifying position is often decisive on the narrow street circuit. The latest Ferrari update builds on earlier Wire Report coverage of Hamilton and Leclerc pacing Monaco FP2, reinforcing Ferrari's strong start to the weekend.
By the numbers: Monaco is Round 6 of the 2026 F1 season and runs June 5-7. Formula 1's published schedule lists FP1 and FP2 on Friday, qualifying on Saturday and the 78-lap Grand Prix on Sunday at Circuit de Monaco.
What to watch: Watch whether Ferrari's soft-tyre pace holds through final practice and qualifying. Track position will be the central variable before Sunday's race.
