Cadillac, first point fades: Perez penalized 10″. Alonso in top-10, Hadjar saves the podium

Monaco GP, the ranking changes The Monaco GP was full of twists and turns, even after the checkered flag. Red Bull can finally celebrate Isack Hadjar’s podium, but disappointment at Cadillac: the Americans sensationally lose the first point in their history in F1 due to a penalty to Sergio Perez. Fernando Alonso’s Aston Martin benefits, rising to tenth place: the latest twist on a Sunday full of chaos. Perez, how naive. Cadillac and Perez just have to eat their hands for the opportunity thrown away. Checo managed to get his positioning wrong in both starts of the GP: in the first, he even occupied the space left free by Gabriel Bortoleto, who started from the pit lane, starting in P14 instead of P16; received a drive through during the race, the Cadillac driver got his GP back on track by crossing the finish line in P10, only to then take a ten second penalty for the irregularity committed during the second restart (this time a matter of centimetres, as only the front right was out of position). Hadjar safe The Frenchman can finally celebrate his second podium in F1 at the end of particularly tense hours. The #6 ended up under investigation after the Red Bull mechanics intervened on his car under the red flag regime, only to then restore the original conditions once recalled by the FIA ​​technical delegate Jo Bauer. The commissioners’ investigation cleared Hadjar, who therefore saved the podium and finished his GP ahead of Oscar Piastri, Liam Lawson, Arvid Lindblad, Pierre Gasly (also penalized 10″), Alexander Albon, Esteban Ocon and Alonso himself.
