2025 F1 Monaco Grand Prix as it happened

The yellow flags have stopped waving, which means the debris has been cleared. The race is back underway. 

Even if there's a Safety Car, you won't be allowed to put as they've closed the pit entry due to Gasly's stricken Alpine.

Race control might have to put out the Safety Car here. 

"I got no brakes," Gasly reports. It looks like he's hit the wall. 

There's 1.7s between Norris and Leclerc at the front. Piastri is running 5.8s off the lead. 

Norris, Leclerc, Piastri, Verstappen, Hadjar, Alonso, Hamilton, Ocon, Lawson and Albon.

The VSC period has ended and the race in Monaco is back underway. 

Norris, Leclerc, Piastri, Verstappen, Hadjar, Alonso, Hamilton, Ocon, Lawson and Albon.

Still under VSC conditions. 

Tsunoda, Gasly and Bearman all come into the pit lane under the VSC. There had just been a collision between Antonelli and Bortoleto.

Bortoleto ended up in the wall but managed to get going again.

Norris keeps his lead into Turn 1 - but a big lock-up for the McLaren driver. Leclerc stays in second ahead of Piastri and Verstappen.

The 2025 F1 Monaco Grand Prix is now underway. Will the two-stop strategy rule spice up the show?

We will be bringing up updates throughout the 78 laps.

The top three are on mediums. Verstappen and Hamilton have opted for the hards. 

So it's now time for the national anthem of Monaco. 

Even Pirelli don't know what strategy is best for the Monaco GP today. As a reminder, all drivers must complete two stops.

It will be interesting to see if some of the midfield teams opt to get their stops out of the way early. 

Hello everyone and welcome back to the Crash.net live blog for the 2025 F1 Monaco Grand Prix.

We're set for an exciting race with the new two-stop rule being enforced for the first time.
