Nikola Tsolov became the winner in the Formula 3 race in Monaco. He completed the 27 laps in 42:16.874 minutes and achieved his fifth victory in his class.

Tsolov started from pole position, which he won in Friday's qualifying. At no point did the Bulgarian star let Roman Bilinski, who placed second, bother him. During the 18th lap, he was already leading by more than 8 seconds.

Tsolov's lead was erased a little later when a safety car entered the track. However, the 18-year-old Bulgarian did not let anyone take away his victory.

The leader in the general standings, Rafael Câmara, did not score any points in the race and his lead at the top was reduced. Câmara leads with 77 points and Tim Tramnitz is second with 13 points less. With his victory in Monaco, Nikola Tsolov came in third place, 16 points behind the leader.

The next race is in Barcelona at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
