Lando Norris secures a tactical victory at the Monaco Grand Prix, starting from pole and finishing ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri, tightening the Formula One championship battle.
Lando Norris clinches a well-calculated victory at the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday, converting his pole position into a dominant win that reduces teammate Oscar Piastri’s championship lead to just three points. Norris’s controlled performance at the iconic street circuit saw him finish ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, who took second place in his home race, and Piastri, who completed the podium in third. Max Verstappen of Red Bull finished fourth, with the top four drivers maintaining the exact starting order.
This year’s Monaco race featured two mandatory pit stops for the first time, raising expectations for strategic twists. However, the tightly packed harbour circuit limited overtaking opportunities, leading drivers to adopt a cautious, tactical approach. Norris’s pace was unmatched, as he lapped all but four competitors to secure his first win at Monaco, signaling a tightening battle at the top of the Formula 1 standings.
