Keeping clear at the front was the key to taking a good result at Monaco, and Rosberg did that with the two Red Bull drivers following him to a podium finish. There were seven drivers retiring from the event, and the stop-start nature of the race meant no one finished a lap down, thanks to a couple of safety car periods. Jean-Éric Vergne picked up points after a top ten start, and Kimi Räikkönen kept his points finish streak going, but only just.
