The Ferrari driver started very well, kept the first place, but made a fatal mistake on the 18th lap. The 24-year-old from Montecarlo lost control of the car at the 11th turn.
His left tire was worn, while Leclerc hit the gas ahead of time, ending up off the track and missing a golden chance.
Verstappen took advantage and the Dutch RedBull driver finished the race in first place. Then Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes), who made a very good start and finished second in race number 300 of his career.
The podium was completed by George Russell, the other Mercedes driver. Carlos Sainz had a fantastic race. Ferrari’s Spaniard started last after changing engines in official practice.
Despite the penalty, the 27-year-old from Madrid managed to finish the Grand Prix in fifth place, while the Mexican Sergio Perez (RedBull) was ranked above him.
The championship continues to be led by Max Verstappen. The Dutchman has collected 233 points, followed by Leclerc with 170 points. Then come Perez (163) and Sainz (144). Hamilton, who is looking for his first win of the season, is sixth with 127 points.
