Alonso missed out of Monaco qualifying

Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso missed out of qualifying for the Monaco GP and start the race from the pit lane after crashing out Third practice session.

Alonso own up to driver error after clouting the barriers at the top of the hill at Massenet, and the crash ripped the front and back right tyres off his car. A wheel rim made a crack in the carbon fiber tub, meaning Alonso will have to use new body in the race. Under the policy any driver replacing his chassis has to start from the pit lane and as a result Alonso will have to work his way through the field on Sunday to get points.
