The race has been held 69 times to date. The paradox of the most famous motor race in the world is that Formula 1 would not be as successful without it and yet, if it was to be proposed as a new race today, it would be dismissed out of hand on logistical and safety grounds.
01Weekend Preview
It’s going to be a really special weekend
Isack Hadjar "Monaco is nearly a home race for me and I’m sure it’s going to be a really special weekend. I believe it’s the best Qualifying session of the year as it’s a really intense one, so I’m looking forward to it. Following last week’s great result in Imola, I feel like the car is working really well. We found a bit more performance, so I’m happy to go again and drive for the first time a Formula One car in Monaco, aiming to fight for a few more points.”
Doing it in F1 takes it to another level
Liam Lawson “This will be my first time racing here in Monaco in a Formula One car and it’s a moment I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. I’ve raced here before in the junior categories and it has always felt incredibly special, but doing it in F1 takes it to another level. There’s so much history and prestige around this track. The margin for error here is tiny, and the challenge is massive, but that’s exactly what makes Monaco so special. It’s going to take a bit of time to get fully comfortable on track, so all three practice sessions will be crucial. I’m really excited to be here.“
