F1, Leclerc without rivals in Monte-Carlo
Monte-Carlo is the most glamorous weekend in the F1 calendar, and for the third time in four years, he sprints from pole position Charles Leclerc. The Monegasque of Ferrari he gets off to a great start and holds command of the operations, but chaos breaks out behind him. Carlos Sainz touches Oscar Piastri and punctures the front left, almost crashing into the Casino. His race seems compromised, but a frightening accident allows him to get back into contention.
Indeed, Sergio Perez and the Haas of Nico Hulkenberg and Kevin Magnussen trigger an absurd carambola, right on the slope towards the Casino. There Red Bull she comes out destroyed, but luckily no one gets hurt. The red flag is displayed, and as not even a lap has been completed, the order of the starting grid is re-established, with Sainz able to start third from the back.
The second start is again excellent for Leclerc, who then just has to take charge of what is, to all intents and purposes, the most boring and exhausting race of the entire F1 world championship. Ferrari and McLaren switch to Hard tires and run the entire race without making pit stops thanks to the red flagwith Lewis Hamilton And Max Verstappen who are the only big names who stop at the end.
However, the reigning world champion and the Briton fail to overcome each other Mercedes Of George Russellwhich maintains fifth place.
