The Monaco Grand Prix is in the history books, and the F1 championship fight has taken a massive turn!
In this week's episode of Pit Lane Torque, we break down Kimi Antonelli’s incredible fifth consecutive victory, leaving him a massive 66 points clear at the top of the Drivers' Championship.
Meanwhile, his teammate George Russell suffered a nightmare, scoreless weekend plagued by a bizarre pit lane penalty chain reaction.
We also dive into the heavy paddock drama—from Kim Kardashian's headline-grabbing F1 debut and her awkward grid encounter with Martin Brundle, to Pierre Gasly's heartbreaking podium loss and Alpine’s official FIA Right of Review.
Plus, we discuss Lewis Hamilton’s brilliant P2 finish for Ferrari, Max Verstappen's incredibly brief Sunday, and a shocking update from the FIA revealing who actually makes the best combustion engine on the grid (spoiler: it’s not Mercedes!).
