Grid differs from qualifying for 12 drivers: Carlos Sainz qualified 9th, started 19th; Kevin Magnussen qualified 10th, started 20th; Daniel Ricciardo qualified 11th, started 9th; Esteban Ocon qualified 12th, started 10th; Valtteri Bottas qualified 13th, started 11th; Sebastian Vettel qualified 14th, started 12th; Alexander Albon qualified 15th, started 13th; Pierre Gasly qualified 16th, started 14th; Lance Stroll qualified 17th, started 15th; Guanyu Zhou qualified 18th, started 16th; Mick Schumacher qualified 19th, started 17th; Nicholas Latifi qualified 20th, started 18th. 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.
