Grid differs from qualifying for 6 drivers: Lewis Hamilton qualified 2nd, started 5th; Charles Leclerc qualified 3rd, started 2nd; Andrea Kimi Antonelli qualified 4th, started 7th; Oscar Piastri qualified 5th, started 3rd; Max Verstappen qualified 6th, started 4th; George Russell qualified 7th, started 6th. 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.
