Drama unfolded late in the Monaco Grand Prix as seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton crashed out, triggering a red flag with just a handful of laps remaining in the iconic street race.
The Mercedes driver lost control coming out of the Nouvelle Chicane, slamming into the barriers and causing significant debris on track. The impact ended Hamilton’s race and forced officials to suspend proceedings while marshals worked to clear the wreckage.
The crash came during a tense phase of the race, with several drivers pushing hard for position amid changing track conditions. Hamilton had been battling within the top ten, looking to salvage crucial points for the struggling Mercedes team.
While Hamilton emerged from the crash unscathed, the incident marked a disappointing end to what had been a gritty drive from the British star. “I’m okay, just frustrated. The car got away from me,” he said in a brief post-incident interview.
Race control issued the red flag with only a few laps to go, bunching the field and setting up a dramatic restart. Championship leaders remained cautious, wary of the circuit’s unforgiving nature.
