Summary
Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli controlled Monaco from pole to flag, beating Lewis Hamilton by 6.271 seconds and Isack Hadjar for his fifth straight win.
Seven drivers retired in a race upended by Max Verstappen's anti-stall start failure, Lando Norris' power loss, late crashes for Lance Stroll and Charles Leclerc, and a red flag after track damage.
Hadjar inherited third after Pierre Gasly dropped back under two five-second pit-lane speeding penalties, while Oscar Piastri and Liam Lawson completed the top five.
Antonelli still protected the lead after a late Safety Car and restart, extending his drivers' championship advantage further before Formula 1 heads to Barcelona next weekend.
