Grid differs from qualifying for 6 drivers: Esteban Gutiérrez qualified 13th, started 18th; Jolyon Palmer qualified 14th, started 13th; Carlos Sainz qualified 15th, started 14th; Pascal Wehrlein qualified 16th, started 15th; Felipe Nasr qualified 17th, started 16th; Esteban Ocon qualified 18th, started 17th. The data records the positions, not the reason; such gaps come from grid penalties, car or engine changes, or pit-lane starts. The small "q" number in the Grid column is the qualifying position.

Grid "PL" means started from the pit lane. FL marks the fastest lap of the race.

Gap: the driver's best time in any session (session named), in seconds behind the fastest time of qualifying. That is usually the pole time; when a session gets slower (rain, for example), an earlier session's time can be faster. The bar is full at 3 seconds; larger gaps are cut off.
