The history of the Monaco Grand Prix
Creation - Awards - Drivers - Services Hospitality
The Monaco Grand Prix is one of the oldest and most prestigious car races in the world. Taking place in the Principality of Monaco, on an urban circuit designed by Antony Noghes in 1929, son of the President of the Automobile Club de Monaco.
The Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix is organised by the association “Sport Vélocipédique de Monaco”, this group is the organiser of the Monte Carlo Rally and has changed its name to the Automobile Club de Monaco.
In the very first Monaco Grand Prix in 1929 there were 16 participants, of these 16 drivers 9 were French. After a relentless 100 laps, 7 withdrawals from the race, and just over 3h49mins of racing, the English driver William Grover-Williams was crowned the champion of the first ever Monaco Grand Prix. This prestigious event has become an annual occurrence, however, there have been 14 occasions the race has not gone forward due to war and other extenuating circumstances.
Every year thousands of spectators gather on the terraces along the circuit to watch the most atypical Grand Prix race in the world. The First Class Organisation venues offer a breath-taking panoramic view of the track, with some having a view of 70% of the track.
To date, the great Ayrton Senna holds the most amount of victories here in Monaco, having amassed a record 6 Grand Prix victories on this famous track. Graham Hill and Michael Schumacher follow closely both with 5 first place finishes, Alain Post has 4 Victories here, followed by Stirling Most, Jackie Stewart, Lewis Hamilton (the current world champion), and the most Monégasque of the Germans, Nico Rosberg all have 3 victories a piece on the Monaco circuit.
Team McLaren have been the dominant force on the Monaco course, boasting 15 victories on the track. Scuderia Ferrari have the second most amount of wins with 10, followed by Mercedes-Benz with 8. In the Nations standings, drivers representing the United Kingdom have become a force to be reckoned with, amassing a combined 41 victories, Italian drivers have won a total of 16 races, while French drivers have only won 7 first place finishes here.
Lewis Hamilton has the best practice time for the Monaco Grand Prix, he won pole position with a time of 1min 10seconds in 2019, however Max Verstappen holds the fastest time in a race with 1min 14seconds, this was achieved in 2018.
