Red Bull driver Max Verstappen wins the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix.

Alonso was second, third place was taken by Esteban Ocon (Alpin).
Verstappen’s closest competitor in the championship, Sergio Perez (Red Bull), after starting from last place, finished 16th and scored no points this weekend.
Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) became the author of the best circle.
In the second half of the race it began to rain, which continued for several laps, most of the pilots finished on intermediate tires.
Verstappen increased his lead over Perez in the individual standings from 14 to 39 points. The current world champion has 144 points, the Mexican has 105 points left. Alonso, who is in third place, scored 93 points.

The Ferrari, Audi and Aston Martin teams have filed a joint lawsuit with the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) over the advantage that Mercedes and Red Bull may have in the 2026 season under the new technical regulations, The Race reports.
In 2026, Formula 1 will switch to new technical regulations, which provide for a reduction in the fuel compression ratio in power plants from 18:1 to 16:1. This indicator will be monitored off the track.
According to the source, Mercedes and Red Bull have found a way to pass the tests while maintaining the actual race compression ratio at 18:1. This could give teams an advantage of 0.3-0.4 seconds per lap.
— The regulations clearly define the maximum compression ratio and the method for measuring it, based on static conditions at ambient temperature. This procedure remains unchanged despite the reduction in the permissible compression ratio for 2026, the FIA said in a statement.
The FIA does not intend to change the regulations at least until the tests are carried out. Teams are allowed to update their power unit designs every six races of the season.
