Grid differs from qualifying for 10 drivers: Max Verstappen qualified 11th, started 19th; Daniel Ricciardo qualified 12th, started 18th; Pierre Gasly qualified 13th, started 17th; Carlos Sainz qualified 14th, started 11th; Nico Hülkenberg qualified 15th, started 12th; Brendon Hartley qualified 16th, started 20th; Fernando Alonso qualified 17th, started 16th; Sergey Sirotkin qualified 18th, started 13th; Stoffel Vandoorne qualified 19th, started 15th; Lance Stroll qualified 20th, started 14th. 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.
