Antonelli emerges from the chaos as the master
While Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) achieved the Grand Slam by securing pole position, victory, the fastest lap in the race and leading from start to finish, behind him, the Grand Prix was marked by complete chaos. His team-mate George Russell had a nightmare afternoon: a five-second penalty that wasn’t served, followed by a drive-through penalty, leaving him to finish in 12th place.
At Scuderia Ferrari, the results were also mixed. Lewis Hamilton took second place on the podium, whilst Charles Leclerc was affected by brake problems before running off the track late in the race. A podium finish appeared to be within reach for the Monegasque driver, but what he later described as an “unacceptable” issue brought the local hero’s hopes to an end.
Red Bull was the third team to experience mixed fortunes. French driver Isack Hadjar secured his first podium finish with the Austrian team. His team-mate, Max Verstappen, was unable to capitalise on his chances. The four-time world champion, who started second on the grid, was forced out of contention by a major mechanical issue at the start.
As for McLaren, Oscar Piastri avoided trouble to finish fourth, but Lando Norris also retired, with reliability issues bringing the reigning world champion’s race to an end. For its part, Racing Bulls performed well, with Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad finishing fifth and sixth respectively.
For the first time since the 2018 Belgian Grand Prix, three French drivers scored points in the same race. While Isack Hadjar celebrated the first Formula 1 podium of his career with Red Bull, the end of the afternoon proved far more frustrating for Pierre Gasly. The Alpine driver crossed the finish line in third place and appeared set for a historic podium before being demoted to 7th after receiving two penalties. A decision that the French team has since announced it intends to appeal. Esteban Ocon, meanwhile, secured 9th place for Haas to complete a strong day for the French contingent.
Between numerous incidents, reliability issues and multiple penalties, Fernando Alonso secured a point for 10th place, Aston Martin’s first of the season. The result was confirmed a few hours after the finish, when Sergio Pérez (Cadillac) received his second personal penalty.
The paddock and grandstands filled with excitement
The Monaco Circuit once again attracted a host of celebrities. TT.SS.HH. Prince Albert II and Princess Charlène, frequent visitors to motor racing events, were naturally in attendance during the weekend.
