Norris Snatches Victory on Final Lap After Monaco Grand Prix Shambles G…read more
In a dramatic twist that capped off a chaotic Monaco Grand Prix, Lando Norris seized a sensational victory on the final lap after a series of strategic blunders and mishaps derailed the front-runners. The McLaren driver showcased nerves of steel and impeccable timing, capitalizing on a late-race meltdown to secure one of the most stunning wins of the season.
The race, notorious for its tight corners and overtaking challenges, descended into disarray following a series of pit stop errors, safety car interruptions, and miscommunication among leading teams. Pole-sitter Charles Leclerc, who had led for most of the race and looked destined to break his Monaco curse, suffered a crushing blow after a pit lane error under virtual safety car conditions dropped him out of contention.
Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton, who were locked in a tense battle for second, were also caught out by poor tire strategy, opening the door for Norris to pounce. With fresh mediums and a clean track ahead, Norris executed a bold overtake on the penultimate lap and maintained composure to cross the finish line first — marking his second career victory and McLaren’s first win in Monaco since 2008.
“Unbelievable. I don’t even have the words,” said a beaming Norris after the race. “We stayed calm, stayed sharp, and when the opportunity came, we took it. It’s a dream come true to win here in Monaco.”
The Monaco GP, often criticized for processional races, delivered an unforgettable spectacle this year — for both the drama and the sheer unpredictability.
