Charles Leclerc has run into the back of Lance Stroll's Aston Martin going into the slow hairpin.
Leclerc had had an off into Mirabeau on an outlap, before taking P1 with his first push lap.
During his second fast lap however, as Stroll and the Monegasque headed into the second Sector of the track the Canadian did not hear his race engineer's instructions that Leclerc was fast approaching. Thus he did not acknowledge the blue flags being waved for him.
Leclerc could not do anything to avoid the crash as after Mirabeau it is impossible to see what lies ahead when you come out on the other side. The Monegasque's SF-25 suffered heavy front wing damage, which required Ferrari to completely replace the piece in question.
