Lando Norris did just enough to claim his maiden victory in the Monaco Grand Prix, holding off Charles Leclerc in the closing stages of the race.

The McLaren driver started from pole and held on to his advantage into Sainte Devote despite locking-up both front tyres as fellow front-row starter and home hero Leclerc slotted into second.

Despite a mandatory two-stop race, Norris held the net race lead throughout, but came under intense pressure in the closing laps from Leclerc and team mate Oscar Piastri.

The order remained unchanged, though, as Max Verstappen directly ahead made his final pit stop on the penultimate lap, giving Norris room to take the fastest lap on the final tour.

It marks the Briton's first victory since the Australia season-opener and cuts Piastri's Drivers' Championship lead down to just three points.
