Carlos Sainz suffers early tyre puncture in Monaco
Carlos Sainz suffered an early puncture at the Monaco GP, as he had a minor collision with Oscar Piastri, who started the race in P2. The Spanish driver parked his car after the first corner, as Ferrari seemed to have suffered a massive loss in the first lap of the race.
