Leclerc disaster: why he can't get the brakes

Leclerc disaster: why he can't get the brakes

While Lewis Hamilton looked back to his best in Monte Carlo, nothing seemed to go right for Charles Leclerc who ended his Monaco Grand Prix in the wall after a terrible weekend — two years after winning at the circuit.


Mark Hughes and Bryn Lucas discuss the unusual, political situation behind the team-mate discrepancy, involving new brake discs for Hamilton and a different set for Leclerc — which were created to match Hamilton's demands.


They look at F1's decision to award engine upgrade tokens to every manufacturer on the grid bar Red Bull. Is the system really meant to reward the fastest performers?


Plus where has Kimi Antonelli's crushing pace come from after a hit-and-miss 2025 season? And how many more make-or-break races can George Russell fail to win?


More on the stories that really matter, in the latest episode of the Motor Sport F1 Show.
