(CNN) — Nico Rosberg claimed provisional pole position for the Monaco Grand Prix Saturday but was under investigation by race stewards over an incident which held up Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton in the final few moments of qualifying.
Both men were on their last flying laps when Rosberg lost control of his car and took to the escape road at Mirabeau.
Hamilton, who was behind him and two hundredths of a second ahead on the first sector timings, was forced to slow up as yellow flags were waived and eventually abandoned his effort.
