Charles Leclerc is the definitive favorite at 1.83 to take pole position. Monaco is his backyard, and his single-lap precision on high-downforce street circuits is unmatched.

George Russell is the safest wager in this tier, holding second in the drivers' championship and bringing elite consistency to his Mercedes car.

He absolutely dominated Free Practice 1 (FP1), setting the fastest benchmark time by over two-tenths of a second. Because his Ferrari behaves exceptionally well on low-speed street layouts, he will naturally hold a high baseline pace during the Grand Prix. If he secures pole position and builds a comfortable gap up front, he can manage his tires perfectly and blast out a lightning-fast lap toward the end of the race.

Pierre Gasly is a reliable choice to target, bringing strong technical awareness to an Alpine team that thrives in high-downforce trims.
