Lando Norris won his maiden Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday to close the gap on his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri in the battle for the 2025 drivers’s world title.
Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc took second with Piastri completing the podium in the eighth race of the season.
Norris closed to within three points of Piastri after adding the jewel in the F1 calendar to his season-opening win in Australia.
Red Bull’s reigning world champion Max Verstappen finished fourth with Lewis Hamilton in the other Ferrari rounding out the top five.
“Monaco, baby! It’s a dream” Norris exclaimed over the team radio, after becoming the first McLaren driver to win on the streets of the Principality since Hamilton in 2008.
“It feels amazing, it was a long gruelling race. This is what we dream of, this is what I did dream of as a kid,” beamed the 25-year-old.
