Twenty-six-year-old, Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc born in Monaco held his nerve to convert his pole position  to win the Monaco Grand Prix  after a huge first-lap pile up  between Haas cars and Red Bull’s Sergio Perez. Leclerc controlled McLaren’s Oscar Piastri, team-mate Carlos Sainz and McLarren’s Lando Morris to take the second Ferrari win of 2024. The final laps was highlighted by a battle for fifth between Mercedes’ George Russell and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, in which the Briton managed to to hole out.

In the past Lecierc twice had taken pole position at Monaco only for the win to slip through his finger. This time lecierc made no mistake.
