In a dramatic turn of events at the Monaco Grand Prix, the FIA has officially confirmed that reigning World Champion Max Verstappen has retired from the race following a high-impact collision during the early stages.
The incident occurred on lap 12 when Verstappen, who had been aggressively challenging for the lead, made contact with the barriers at the Nouvelle Chicane after a tight battle with a rival driver. The crash caused significant damage to his Red Bull Racing car, forcing him to pull out of the race.
Race stewards and medical staff quickly responded to the scene. While Verstappen walked away uninjured, his retirement marks a significant blow to his championship campaign.
“The car sustained too much damage to continue safely,” an FIA spokesperson said in an official statement. “Max Verstappen is out of the Monaco Grand Prix.”
Red Bull Racing has yet to release a full comment on the incident, but team principal Christian Horner briefly stated that they would be “conducting a thorough review” to understand what went wrong.
This exit opens up major opportunities for Verstappen’s title rivals as the championship battle tightens heading into the European leg of the season.
