Monaco 2022:
Perez started P3
Verstappen started P4.
LeClerc P1 3/10th faster than Max and almost 3/10th after than Sainz in P2.
So whilst Perez's crash may have prevented Max from getting pole it was not to retain his pole, nor to retain his starting grid row.... he was starting P3 or P4.
To think he crashed deliberately is far fetched, especially as two days later RBR confirmed Perez's contract for 2023/24 seasons. This suggests it was signed before the race but not announced.
Not sure they would have announced it if they believed Perez had deliberately crashed to prevent Max's Q3 run..
Possible yet improbable.
Max simply under pressure and reverting to old habits. I hope he matures to escape this trait.
