Charles Leclerc – Ferrari (P4) 8/10
Started ninth, stayed impeccably out of trouble but raced with the bit between his teeth from start to finish in an SF-25 that lacked crucial straight-line speed. Promotion to fourth courtesy of the plank police, but he earned every position on track. Smooth, calculated, typical Monegasque grit under the lights.
Kimi Antonelli – Mercedes (P3) 9/10
Jump-started seventeenth – which earned him a 5-second penalty, opted to bold on the hards during the first VSC and never stopped again, carving through the field to finish P4, then upgraded to P3. The 18-year-old embarrassed half the grid with tyre management from another planet. Terrifyingly complete performance.
