Monaco is always ready to offer a great show, and this time too it did not disappoint. The qualifications they have already given the first twists, with the extraordinary Pole Ferrari signed by the home idol Charles Leclerc. Red Bull, in difficulty throughout the weekend, she found herself having to compete in a comeback race. Which isn't ideal on a circuit where overtaking is difficult, if not impossible. In the streets of the Principality there are those who managed to make the most of it, but also those who missed an important opportunity to score points. So let's see the tops and flops of the Monaco GP at Fanta F1.
The top at Fanta F1 in the Monaco GP
We begin the ranking of the tops and flops at the Fanta F1 of the Monaco GP with the drivers who concluded the weekend in the Principality in the best way.
Charles Leclerc: this weekend there were no rivals for Charles Leclerc, no obstacles in the race for first place victory career in Monaco, at his home. His was a race studied and built over the course of the entire weekend. Everyone was impeccable at Ferrari. Charles made the difference in qualifying, an old and dear habit to be reconfirmed in the race. Considering the precedents he was not at all obvious. But finally the Monegasque Fantamanagers can breathe again, interrupt the apnea that lasted 78 long laps, and scream at the top of their lungs: Charles Leclerc won the Monaco GP!
Oscar Piastri: There is also another applause to give to the person who took second place in Monaco in his second F1 appearance in the Principality, namely Oscar Piastri. He doesn't let Leclerc escape during the Grand Prix, he stays close to him and avoids dangerous situations. Constantly ahead of his teammate this weekend, Piastri doesn't waste the opportunity. Lots of points at Fanta F1 for the Fantamanagers of the papaya team.
Alexander Albon: in Monaco the difference was made by qualifying and Alexander Albon did not miss the appointment despite having to fight with a car that was less competitive than others. He manages to reach the top 10 and therefore the first points of the season arrive for Williams too. At the moment only Stake F1 team is at 0.
The flops at Fanta F1 in the Monaco GP
Kevin Magnussen: after an episode like today we must be grateful for the safety achieved by these single-seaters. But this does not justify the behavior of certain drivers, especially if they are repeat offenders. Kevin Magnussen in Monaco had to do only one thing, take it home, without too many risks considering both the starting position but above all the looming disqualification, having now only 2 points on his licence. The contact with Perez is not a simple racing accident, because such a maneuver should not be done, regardless of what is at stake. Lucky to be considered not guilty by the commissioners but not at Fanta F1, where he collected a very heavy -10.
Sergio Perez: Perez is undoubtedly less to blame than Magnussen, however his fault is mainly that of not having achieved the result in qualifying, which he ended in Q1. If in his opinion Imola is not suitable for F1, Monaco will be decidedly less so after this weekend. At Fanta F1, his retirement really weighs heavily.
Stephen Ocon: last but not least Esteban Ocon. Monaco brings out the best and worst in every driver. In the case of Ocon, who achieved a fantastic podium last year, this time the worst came out. The contact with his teammate forces him to retire. A withdrawal that weighs particularly heavily because it is the first of the season. At Fanta F1 his average will suffer a drastic drop.
