What happened: Andrea Kimi Antonelli secured his fifth consecutive victory on Sunday, winning a chaotic 2026 Monaco Grand Prix. The Mercedes driver started from pole and survived a late red flag to become the youngest-ever winner in the event's history.
Why it matters: The win extends Antonelli’s championship lead to 66 points as he continues a historic debut season. Mercedes' dominant form comes as rivals struggled, with Mclaren finishing just off the podium in fourth. The race saw major retirements from championship contenders Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc.
By the numbers: Antonelli becomes the youngest winner in Monaco history at 19 years old. He now holds a 66-point lead in the Drivers' Championship with five wins in five races.
What to watch: The 2026 season continues at the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal, where Antonelli looks to extend his record-breaking win streak.
