Toto Wolff says Mercedes are at fault for the mistake that led Lewis Hamilton to lose in Monaco
Mercedes called the reigning world champion in to pit under the safety car Max Verstappen crashed heavily into the barriers while fighting Romain Grosjean for a possible 10th place.
The call allowed Nico Rosberg and Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel the opportunity to overtake.
And Silver Arrows boss Wolff admits the error of judgement lies entirely with the team.
Nico Rosberg took a surprising victory in Monaco
We screwed it up for him
"We have lost Lewis [Hamilton] the Grand Prix with our decision [to pit]," said Wolff.
"We thought the gap was different to what it was. A complete misjudgement, I am so sorry.
"We screwed it up for him."
