He is not taking the blame. Leclerc says Ferrari had a major brake issue, with three out of four brakes not working properly after the safety car. In a Formula 1 car, around Monaco, that is a nightmare. Ferrari’s data reportedly backs up the problem, and Leclerc says the team already has a solution: he will switch to Lewis Hamilton’s brake configuration from the next race. So was this a Leclerc mistake, a Ferrari failure, or another brutal Monaco chapter for Charles? ⚠️ FERRARI BRAKE NIGHTMARE Monaco gives drivers no escape. One small issue becomes a crash. One technical problem becomes a headline. And when brakes disappear at Antony Noghès, there is nowhere to hide. Leclerc says he tried everything in the car, but there was no real way out. Ferrari now must explain how huge potential became another painful Monaco disaster. This is Ferrari pressure at its sharpest. 🐂 VERSTAPPEN ENGINE DROPS DEAD Max Verstappen’s Monaco GP also ended in shock. Verstappen said his Red Bull engine “just dropped dead” after already feeling problems on the formation lap. He briefly got power back, but the car sounded wrong and Red Bull retired him on lap one. For Red Bull, that is a huge problem. They looked stronger in Monaco, Verstappen had fought near the front, and then the race disappeared almost instantly. 🏆 ANTONELLI TAKES CONTROL Kimi Antonelli delivered another huge statement with a dominant Monaco GP win. Antonelli won from pole and stretched his championship lead, while George Russell finished outside the points. The race exploded late with crashes, a red flag and an eight-lap shootout, but Antonelli kept control when it mattered. That is the difference right now. Antonelli is converting pressure into wins. Russell is watching the gap grow. 🏁 FULL MONACO GP REACTION Tonight we break down the full Monaco GP. Who deserved Driver of the Weekend? Who gets Dipstick of the Weekend?
