  "textContent": "MONACO: Max Verstappen’s Monaco Grand Prix came to a disappointing end after just one slow lap when the Red Bull driver retired due to a power unit failure on Sunday.\n\nDespite a strong qualifying performance that saw the four-time world champion line up alongside Mercedes pole-sitter Kimi Antonelli, Verstappen’s car failed to get off the line properly when the race began.\n\nAlthough he eventually managed to move, he was forced to crawl around the circuit at reduced speed before being instructed by his team to return to the garage.\n\nVerstappen said the issue began even before the start, describing an inconsistent formation lap and a sudden engine failure.\n\nHe told Sky Sports that the car briefly regained some power after the first corner but soon became undriveable, with the engine “sounding really awful” and no ability to use full throttle.\n\nThe retirement adds to a difficult season for Verstappen, who has previously criticised the current hybrid engine regulations and hinted at a possible departure from the sport.\n\nThe post Verstappen, who drives for Belgium, out after one lap of Monaco Grand Prix appeared first on HUM News English.",
