Few Grand Prix events compare to the adrenaline, the glamour, the luxury, and the history of the Grand Prix de Monaco. Held annually on the Circuit de Monaco as a Formula One race, this iconic race has run since 1929. Considered one of the most important races on the F1 calendar, Monaco is the only city that doesn’t have to actually pay to host the race, thanks to the prestige it brings to the sport of motor racing.
