F1 Practice Today: Monaco Grand Prix 2023 start times, schedule and TV

Formula One's action continues on Saturday at the Monaco Grand Prix with the final two sessions heading into Sunday's race.

On Friday Verstappen was quickest around the principality after topping the timesheets in FP2, with Carlos Sainz having gone quickest for Ferrari in the morning.

However, the Red Bull was only narrowly quickest after FP2 having just edged out Charles Leclerc in the sister Ferrari by less than a tenth.

Meanwhile Mercedes will be hoping they have learned much from their new upgrades as they look to improve their times heading into the final practice session before qualifying.

Saturday's drama sees FP3 followed by what is known as the most important pole position of the season.

So here is all you need to know heading Saturday at Monaco.
