Sergio Perez wins chaotic F1 Monaco Grand Prix:
Although Leclerc finished the race for the first time in four tries, he finished fourth and allowed reigning world championto extend his lead in the points standings. Carlos Sainz Jr. finished second for Ferrari and Verstappen was third for Red Bull.
But the win went to Verstappen's teammate just one week after Perez was ordered to cede the lead to Verstappen during the Spanish Grand Prix. Leclerc had dropped out of the race with an engine failure and Red Bull chose to capitalize by manipulating the finish to get Verstappen the win in Spain.“You dream of winning this, and after your home race, there is no place more special to win,” Perez said after waving the Mexican flag.
Leclerc also won the pole a year ago but never got to start because he crashed at the end of qualifying, and the car’s gearbox failed moments before the start. In 2018 and 2019, Leclerc had retired from the race with crash damage.
