Have you collected your breath yet? Good, let's dive into the F1 results from the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix - where something dramatic happened to pretty much every driver.

First thing's first, Kimi Antonelli. He didn't just win the race, but also withstood immense pressure with a restart and Lewis Hamilton to contend with. Oh, and he became the youngest ever Monaco Grand Prix winner. AND extended his championship lead by 66 points, not to George Russell but to Hamilton (more on that later).

At one stage, it appeared that any chance of a Hamilton victory had evaporated when the stewards awarded the Ferrari star a five-second penalty for speeding in the pitlane.

However, fortune shone on Hamilton when Lance Stroll crashed into the wall and triggered a safety car. This allowed Hamilton to serve his penalty - and retain second place - under safety car conditions, where both Ferraris pitted for fresh tyres prior to Antonelli.

Fortune didn't favour Charles Leclerc though, who, on the safety car, restart immediately hit the wall and triggered a second safety car. The Monegasque star was furious when he stormed back into the garage, having complained over team radio: "I'm not even going to take the blame! These brakes!"

The race was soon red flagged and suspended with 10 laps remaining, as the FIA went to inspect and repair tarmac breaking up at the final corner.

On the race restart - 35 minutes later - Hamilton couldn't quite manage to get past Antonelli in a thrilling close to the Monaco Grand Prix; although there was chaos behind when Franco Colapinto made contact with Carlos Sainz and ended his race.

George Russell, who was also hit with a five-second time penalty for speeding in the pitlane, also had a nightmare end to the race after he failed to serve his penalty when he pitted during the safety car period. As a result, he was awarded a drive-through penalty and finished outside of the points.

Alongside Hamilton and Russell, Franco Colapinto, Pierre Gasly (twice) and Oscar Piastri were also hit with penalties for the same infringement - which led to suspicions over a wider issue with the sensor measuring the pitlane speed.

In response to this raft of penalties, Brundle said on Sky Sports F1's commentary: "Something strange is going on. The sensor has moved or the sensor has got an issue."

Prior to the late drama, Max Verstappen's race ended before it even started, after the Dutchman stalled on the grid when the lights went out and retired with engine issues.

Valtteri Bottas became the second retirement of the race when he returned his Cadillac back to the pits on lap 18, unable to continue due to an overheating issue. Ollie Bearman was the third on lap 30 and a mere footnote to Sunday's list of retirements.

Unfortunately for Lando Norris, he fell prey to the Monaco curse and retired with power unit issues after complaining about the battery, a disappointing end to the weekend proceedings for last year's winner.

Meanwhile a late 10-second penalty for Sergio Perez saw Cadillac miss out on their first ever F1 points, handing Fernando Alonso and Aston Martin their first point of the season.
