Leclerc kept McLaren’s Oscar Piastri at bay to take his first victory on home soil.
Hometown hero Charles Leclerc ended his Monaco curse by winning a processional race that Max Verstappen claimed was “so boring” he wish he had “brought my pillow”.
George Russell crossed the line in fifth for Mercedes with Verstappen sixth and Lewis Hamilton seventh. The top 10 finished in the same order they started.“No words can explain that,” said Leclerc. “It is such a difficult race, and the fact that twice I have started on pole, and we couldn’t do it, makes this even better.“It was a difficult race emotionally because 15 laps form the end you are hoping nothing happens and the emotions started.
Esteban Ocon took a desperate lunge on Pierre Gasly through Portier and, in doing so, made contact with his team-mate. The impact launched Ocon into the air. And under red-flag conditions, the drivers were crucially also able to take on a new set of tyres, effectively meaning they would not have to stop in the race if their rubber could last until the end.
F1 bosses have looked at ways to adapt the tight and twisty layout but have made little progress. The heaviest generation of F1 cars ever seen has made overtaking practically impossible.Leclerc kept Piastri at bay for the entire race
