Grid differs from qualifying for 12 drivers: Sebastian Vettel qualified 2nd, started 5th; Kimi Räikkönen qualified 3rd, started 2nd; Valtteri Bottas qualified 4th, started 3rd; Daniel Ricciardo qualified 5th, started 4th; Pierre Gasly qualified 13th, started 19th; Brendon Hartley qualified 14th, started 20th; Max Verstappen qualified 15th, started 18th; Fernando Alonso qualified 16th, started 13th; Sergey Sirotkin qualified 17th, started 14th; Lance Stroll qualified 18th, started 15th; Marcus Ericsson qualified 19th, started 16th; Stoffel Vandoorne qualified 20th, 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.
