Race Highlights | 2024 Monaco Grand Prix

and one of the great motor races begins

in Five Lights time and the Monaco Grand

Prix is underway we get the launch from

the line from Char Clair he's going to

maintain the lead could be second place

for Ferrari they go side by side with

pastri and signs juking it out but the

Australian driver kept second place the

top four the top five as they were as

lir gets the launch that he needed but

he's had a problem is not an issue looks

like the Sparks out of the back of the

car for signs he has got a problem he's

off and he's out Carlos signs on the

opening lap was the wheel banging

between those two because the Spanish

driver is out on the opening lap of the

Grand Prix there must have been a touch

then SS of pastri pastri was so brave at

the first Corner hanging it around the

outside the wall then pinches in on the

exit and there must have been a slight

touch between them watch pastri watch

Oscar pastri in second place he's all

over the back of the Scarlet Ferrari

trying to chase his way by can he Force

his way pass to the newv Val chicane

would have been bold but McLaren firing

up their tires so quickly one Ferrari

out immediately and the red flag is

flying on lap one of 78 oh that's a big

crash that we didn't see further back

most important thing to see look no

front left no front right but Perez

thankfully out of the car and a huge

amount of debris but extraordinarily

four cars out on the opening

lap this is the touch there for science

oh it's a little one but just carbon

fiber there of the edge of the floor for

piastri and science knows he's got to

puncture immediately watch Perez it's

going to be down the inside it's

magneson with the clip that causes the

accident and that's a massive hit into

the wall he doesn't back out does he he

just never it's not in his DNA for Kevin

Magnuson to back out so Perez must have

had a pretty bad start to be down there

with both H cars so hulkenberg might get

a view of this or was he the I think he

was ahead wasn't he on as per is ahead

so Magnuson sneaks up the inside of

hulkenberg yeah magnus's going to be on

the right hand side that's where the

contact is going to be oh I mean Magnus

will say that Perez should have opened

given him a bit more space to go side by

side up there are you okay

Nico uh damn it that was unnecessary

yeah so this is going to be the the

angle I think there's the Gap and he's

already touched the wall himself and

then just keeps his foot in he just

never backs out he's on 10 points on his

license you'd think he'd be cautious at

the moment that that's going to be him

gone that is EST Bok on chancing one at

portier the two alp come

together what did he do what did he do

what did he try to attack

go

damage I can tell you esan okon is in

the garage having his car looked at and

that is

why we were able to establish an order

but the order for the restart has been

given a signs in third position that is

a huge let off for the Spanish driver

we're underway and racing once again on

the streets of Monaco looks like a good

launch for Oscar pastra he's got nowhere

to go though Charla Clair maintains the

lead once again Lando Norris was close

with Carlos sains but it's George

Russell who's got the better traction

with that Medium Tire can he get close

no he can't top five top six as they

were off the line will we make our way

through this sequence of Corners

unscathed this time we will and everyone

will be trying to bring the tire

temperature in

I can't imagine he's feeling too

comfortable there he's is measuring the

pace he can fluctuate it as he likes

he's now on this lap a second slower

than the lap before and that's why

piastra is right with him but when you

have the bright yellow car in your

mirror that close that was less than

3/10 into the best overtaking place on

the circuit piastri is only about half a

car from throwing a lunge that you can't

be sitting too comfortable if you're in

that position this is really close

now sh Landing I guess because that was

close with one

might agrees with Jolan

p and Aston Martin can do something here

because they have both cars 11th and

12th they are now giving up Alonzo's

race to get a big gap to uh to stroll so

stroll can have a pit stop and go and

attack gazley so Alonzo's managing this

pace still even though he's on a medium

Tire he's just keeping Ricardo here and

is frustrating for a driver that's has

so many big lunge overtakes in his

career here is not able to do one just

yet and my word Lance stroll is making a

pit stop something is happening in the

pit Lane in front of us 2.3 seconds and

all of Alonzo's work has built a gap for

his Canadian

teammate just for your info I think you

have around I mean do you want to know

the budg no Charles we're not interested

we know he said all right no we are not

interested that's rude

sorry oh no stoll's got a puner stroll

has a puncher and his Amo up to the back

of Pierre gazley will not happen that's

the carcass off the rim stroll back to

the pit Lane and that deletes the chance

of seeing some pressure later

on this VRI botas driver in 13th

position and he's in 13th position

because he's going to go to the inside

and we've got an overtake at Monaco vry

vas gets by he's past Logan Sergeant at

mirabo what a move best of the

race and it's very fast at this stage of

the tunnel for Lance stroll who had to

back off but did eventually get through

down to the newv chicane on those soft

tires he had better tires got the run on

acceleration but then had a moment of

doubt it's an overtaking banza another

one for strong another one he's got a

another driver and he goes past Logan

Sergeant oh my word more than a brush

double touch there I think from Joe and

Sergeant I would say the the highlights

real of this one is not going to be the

longest yeah good luck to the

editor and this is Logan Sergeant

overtaking Joe guu and getting up to

15th Place and he did that whilst he was

making his way through the

traffic in 2017 charl clir lost his

father and in his final day he told his

father a white lie that he'd made it to

Formula 1 that he'd signed the contract

it wasn't true then but his driving has

made it true now and look what he's done

with the opportunity the grand stands he

saw built as a kid growing up now rise

for him and for the first time in 93

years this favored race is won by one of

their own sh Clair wins the mon Grand

Prix to achieve his dream victory in his

home race well done Char Clair it's

mission accomplished Destiny fulfilled

you've got that one

forever we won

it finally

yes

yes yes yes

yes when your home race includes

memories of waiting with your friends to

get on the school bus when he's looking

up at the balcony where he first watched

the Grand Prix that's more than special

that's pure emotion for sh

Clair and the party starts right now for

Monaco's favorite son and even the

prince is getting in on the action

because when one of your own have won

the most famous Grand Prix of the lot

you've got to pass him
