Stroll Angers Antonelli and Leclerc at Monaco GP
Lance Stroll drew criticism at the Monaco Grand Prix by staying behind Kimi Antonelli and Charles Leclerc in the tunnel. Antonelli used harsh words for Stroll, while Leclerc demanded a penalty.
At the Monaco Grand Prix, Lance Stroll drew the ire of Kimi Antonelli and Charles Leclerc by slowing down in the tunnel section. This part of the race became a topic of discussion over radio communications after the two leading drivers were blocked.
Stroll started qualifying in 22nd position on the streets of Monaco and nearly hit the wall on the second lap of the race. The Canadian driver narrowly regained control at a dangerous moment when he said his car slid to the left in the tunnel.
Stroll responded with laughter to race engineer Andrew Vizard when describing what he experienced. However, the situation was different for Antonelli, who was fighting for the lead at the same time.
Mercedes driver Antonelli had increased the pace from the start of the race and opened a gap ahead of the Ferraris. When he reached Stroll, overtaking was not as easy as expected.
On lap 50, as Antonelli approached the tunnel exit, he reacted sharply when Stroll did not yield, criticizing the Canadian driver as a "real idiot." The young driver managed to pass Stroll only after exiting the tunnel but before the Nouvelle chicane.
Soon after, the same traffic situation blocked Leclerc. The Ferrari driver asked his team over the radio to issue a penalty to Stroll.
Stroll’s race ended on lap 57 when he crashed into the outside wall at Antony Noghes. When asked if the track surface deterioration contributed to the incident, Stroll explained that the main cause was a motor brake problem he had experienced throughout the race.
The Canadian driver said the car pushed in some corners and pulled in others, indicating inconsistent system performance. He also mentioned feeling as if the throttle pedal was half-open in one of the final corners.
Meanwhile, on the Aston Martin side, Fernando Alonso moved into the top 10 thanks to a 10-second post-race penalty given to Sergio Perez, earning the team its first points of the season. Alonso finished 10th in Monaco, securing a single point for his team.
