What happened: Lando Norris was forced to stop his McLaren on track at the Nouvelle Chicane during the Monaco Grand Prix, bringing out a Virtual Safety Car. The incident left his car stranded in one of the tightest sections of the circuit.

Why it matters: Track time is at a premium at Monaco, making this interruption a significant setback for the team's weekend preparations. The incident, which halted Monaco FP2 with a technical issue, compromises their data gathering ahead of a crucial qualifying session.

What to watch: McLaren will work to retrieve the car, identify the cause of the failure, and make repairs before the next session.
