- On Sunday, Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli won the Monaco Grand Prix, becoming the youngest winner in the event's history at 19 years old, extending his championship lead to 66 points.

- Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton secured second, matching Ayrton Senna's eight Monte Carlo podiums, while Red Bull's Isack Hadjar took third; Max Verstappen retired on lap one and Lando Norris on lap 46.
- George Russell finished 13th after a drive-through penalty for incorrectly serving a pit-lane speeding sanction, dropping the Mercedes driver to third in the championship standings, 68 points behind Antonelli.
- Racing Bulls drivers Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad finished fifth and sixth, securing double points as Formula One heads to Barcelona next week for the Spanish Grand Prix.
