Kimi Antonelli wins delayed Monaco Grand Prix to extend his victory streak and
F1 lead
MONACO (AP) --- Kimi Antonelli's rise to the top of Formula 1 continued in
bizarre circumstances as the 19-year-old Mercedes driver won a much-delayed
Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday.
Antonelli was cruising to victory with 10 laps remaining when the race was
red-flagged as parts of the asphalt broke away and two cars crashed in quick
succession, one of them third-placed Charles Leclerc.
The race resumed from a standing start and Antonelli took his fifth Grand Prix
win in a row and extended his already vast standings lead. He's the youngest F1
winner in Monaco.
Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton crossed the line second and Alpine's Pierre Gasly
third. Red Bull's Isack Hadjar was moved up to third due to a penalty for Gasly.
