Sergio Perez is still under pressure but Carlos Sainz is under pressure from Max Verstappen. Sainz is under less pressure though than the championship leader to protect his points. He would rather go for the race win.
Sergio Perez has a seven tenths advantage over the Ferrari of Carlos Sainz. The Mexican is close to popping that champagne...
After the team orders in Barcelona, you'll have to prise this race win out of Sergio Perez's kung fu grip.

Carlos Sainz has a huge moment coming through Casino Square. He is absolutely on the edge and that is his second big save of the day.
Guanyu Zhou moves out of the way. Sergio Perez still leads but Max Verstappen is now all over the back of Carlos Sainz.
I think one of those back runners is Nicholas Latifi.
The pressure is mounting as the front runners reach the back markers.

They can't afford a crash as much as Carlos Sainz can. He wants this win and I like to see this.
The front four, Perez, Sainz, Verstappen and Leclerc are in a train. They are so close that anything can happen here, not just Saniz trying to overtake Checo.

It's a nightmare for Sergio Perez.
Carlos Sainz has to do the almost impossible and overtake at Monaco. Clock is close to six minutes remaining.
"I think Checo has messed up his tyres."
Max Verstappen has made an observation. The Dutchman can see his team-mate Sergio Perez's tyres are done. But he used a fruity word to describe them.
Nibble those nails, Christian Horner. This could be a tense one.

Carlos Sainz has never won in Formula 1. He is right under the rear wing of Sergio Perez. He has a real chance to get the lead of the grand prix. Grandstand finish incoming here at Monaco.
How long can Sergio Perez's tyres last now? He's on the medium compounds, Sainz is on the hards.
