Kimi Antonelli drives away from Lewis Hamilton to win the Monaco Grand Prix

Kimi Antonelli extended his Monaco dominance by taking a fifth consecutive Grand Prix win, fending off Lewis Hamilton after a standing restart with only a few laps remaining. The race featured chaos, penalties, and retirements, after Max Verstappen retired almost immediately due to a power-unit failure on the RB22. Lance Stroll hit the wall on lap 60, triggering a safety car that closed the gap to Antonelli, and Charles Leclerc crashed at the restart, prompting another safety-car and a red flag as the track surface began breaking up at Turn 19. Race officials then confronted a flurry of investigations and penalties for pit-lane speeding, with George Russell initially penalized and later facing further consequences; Rui Marque, the race director, had full discretion over the restart format.
