Qua꧑lifying for the Monaco Grand Prix was disrupted and ended early by Charles Leclerc’s crash on his final lap as he secured a shock a shock pole position for Ferrari.

The incident ༺prevented several drivers, including Red Bull’s Max Verstappen - who had been up on Leclerc’s sector one time - from improving on their finಞal flying laps in Q3.

It led to suggestions in the paddock that 🦂F1 shoulܫd implement a rule used in American series IndyCar and IMSA where drivers who bring out red flags have their lap times deleted so they cannot unfairly disadvantage their fellow competitors.

Leclerc’s closest rivals in qualifying insisted it was fair ꦐfor the Monegasque to keep his pole,﷽ despite their respecti🥀ve frustration at missing out.

F1 race director Michael Masi confirmed after Sunday’s race that the FIA will explore whether an IndyCar-style rule could be a suitable option to introduce to the world champions𒉰♔hip.

“Like everything when everything arises, the FIA, Formula 1 and the teams⛦ look at everything and consider it on its merits,” Masi said.

“Yes, I know the IndyCar rule, which is also a rule in a number of other FIA international series and domestic champion💙ships around the world.

“We’ll look at it and, together with a🌱ll of the key stakeho༺lders, determine if it’s suitable or not.”

Masi also 🌸revealed that race control looked into Leclerc’s qualifying crash to ensure there was ༺no foul play involved but quickly concluded it was not deliberate.

“The incident was looked at immedia𝐆tely in race control,” Masi explai♒ned. “It was quite clear to us that it was an error at the first part at Turn 15.

“So having looked at it, looked at the data, and also listened to the team communicat♑ion, I don’t think any driver would go out there to severely damage their car to that degree in any circumstanc🍌es because of the consequences that may arise out of that.”
