Formula One’s new boy wonder Kimi Antonelli has won his fifth-straight race, and the biggest of them all, as he dominated a chaotic Monaco Grand Prix from start to finish.
The 19-year-old built a huge lead after starting from pole in his Mercedes but his 30-second advantage was wiped out after a late red flag to inspect a crumbling surface at the final corner on the celebrated street circuit which had taken out third-placed Charles Leclerc on Sunday.
After a 40-minute delay while repairs were carried out, Antonelli proved just as supreme from another standing start, powering away to become the youngest ever winner of the great race from runner-up Lewis Hamilton, who enjoyed a record eighth podium finish in Monaco.
Red Bull’s Isack Hadjar was third, but was among a number of drivers under investigation for a variety of infringements, with the prospect that fourth-placed finisher, Australia’s McLaren driver Oscar Piastri, might be later elevated to a podium position should the Frenchman receive a time penalty.
