Verstappen triumphs in Monaco Grand Prix despite Portier scare.
TL;DR
Max Verstappen won the Monaco Grand Prix after holding off Fernando Alonso's challenge and surviving a late rain shower. Verstappen, who started from pole, stayed out on worn medium tyres to maintain track position and then switched to intermediates when the rain intensified. He almost threw away the win by hitting the wall at Portier, but managed to control his car and hold on for victory. The win extends Verstappen's lead in the championship to 39 points over team-mate Sergio Perez.
