The Dutch Max Verstappen (Red Bull) won this Sunday the Monaco Grand Prix of Formula 1, the twelfth triumph of his career, and at the same time took the lead of the World Championship, after the fifth round of the season, ousting the British Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes).
The Spanish Carlos Sainz (Ferrari), the British Lando Norris (McLaren) and the Mexican Sergio Pérez (Red Bull) finished the race in second, third and fourth places, respectively. The sevenfold world champion Lewis Hamilton finished in seventh position in the race, which caused him to lose the first place of the World Cup, while the Monegasque Charles Leclerc (Ferrari), who had achieved the pole position, did not take the start because he could not repair his crashed car on time on Saturday.
