Monte Carlo Qualifying Groups decided

Following the ballot held at the pre-race weekend Formula 2 Drivers’ briefing, the two groups for Friday’s Qualifying session in Monte Carlo have been selected.
Group A will be all 11 even-numbered cars while the odd-numbered cars will participate in Group B.
Qualifying will get underway at 15:10 local time with Group A set to hit the track first, and Group B will follow them afterwards at 15:34 local time.
The driver with the best time across both groups will get pole position for the Feature Race, with the fastest in the other group joining them on the front row.
The positions will then alternate back and forth between the groups to decide the rest of the grid.
For the Sprint Race, the fifth-fastest driver from the second group will start from pole, and they will be joined on the front row by the driver who finishes fifth in the faster group.
The groups are as follows:
