Sergio Perez won the race from third place on the grid.
All the headlines will be about Sergio Perez’s brilliant drive from 3rd on the grid to win the Monaco GP today, as the Mexican driver secured his first win of the season. It was also Perez’s first Monaco GP win, and since the next race is also on the street circuit, it will boost his morale after Verstappen was asked to move on at the Spanish GP last week. The start of the Grand Prix was delayed due to bad weather, and once the race started, Perez called for sticking to wet tyres throughout, stopping for Inters when the others, and an overcut on the Ferraris. Pulled from the front to grab. race lead. After the final red flag period, he resumed the race on medium tyres and managed his tyres well to win the home race, despite Sainz’s late pressure.
Charles Leclerc dominated the early stages of the race, but a miscommunication on the radio caused him to be called into pits a lap early, giving Carlos Sainz the race lead. His second pitstop which saw him move from Inter to hard compound tyres, was overcut by both Red Bull cars, and Leclerc fell down to P4.
Championship leader Max Verstappen could only find a way behind Charles Leclerc using an overcut strategy – in which the rear driver is out on old tires for an extra lap so that the front driver’s tires gain an advantage during the warm-up period. To be. Verstappen however managed to keep his title rival behind him, helping him extend his lead in the championship.
As the track began to dry out, everyone began to pit for different sets of tyres, causing several incidents on the drying surface of the track, resulting in several red flag periods. The last of which was caused by Mick Schumacher’s shunt, in which the German driver’s car was split in half. The driver fortunately had no injuries in the crash, and the crash was a striking demonstration of the rules enforced after the horrific Grosjean crash in Bahrain in 2020. The rules modify the design of the car in a way that makes it easier to snap in two. Half in a collision to reduce the impact on the driver. However, this shunt would reduce the work of the American team, as the cost of construction would eat up its budget.

During the Red Flag period a lot of drivers switched from their hard compound tyres to medium sets, as delays were expected to shorten the race. Some drivers chose to keep the hard tyres, however, and this created a good mix of racing in tenure. In the beginning, medium runners looked fast, but as their tires started to fade, harder runners came into play. Despite a close run, not many moves were made during the race.
George Russell had a stellar P5 home run earlier this weekend despite the team’s issues. The Mercedes driver found a way to overtake Lando Norris – who finished 6th – and showed great pace, but it was not enough to challenge the front runners.

Despite the slow pace, Fernando Alonso managed to hold onto the P7 as he was challenged for an extended period by Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes. This created a train of runners behind him, and Ocon was out on points as he was penalized for an earlier incident with Hamilton. Valtteri Bottas continued his fine form by finishing in P9, as Sebastian Vettel managed to take the final points after an impressive qualifying yesterday.
