The hope is that the 2024 and 2025 Monaco Grand Prix results are not an omen for the 2026 race. Otherwise, Max Verstappen may need a pillow again. Given the lack of overtakes in past races at Monaco, qualifying and pit stops remain crucial. 

Mercedes has been the team to beat, and Antonelli did it again. However, Ferrari and Verstappen are close here. Monaco involves a strategy of standing one’s ground and not making mistakes.
