The 75th edition of the Grand Prix Automobile de Monaco will be held from Thursday 25th to Sunday 28th May 2017. Organized during the Ascension week-end, the legendary Monegasque event will host the 6th round of the 2017 FIA Formula 1 World Championship.
Real jewel of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship, the Grand Prix Automobile de Monaco push every season the best drivers of the world beyond their limits. Pitiless for both men and cars remains the favourite meeting of all fan of motorsport.
The Monaco ’s race is still exceptional because of its fabulous background drawn between the sea and the mountains and by its incomparable prestige. The Monegasque event brings together all the ingredients of an extraordinary Grand Prix: glamour, speed and above all exclusiveness.
Finally winner for the second time in the Principality in 2016, the three times world champion Lewis Hamilton will certainly try to catch another win on the rock for the 962th Formula 1 Grand Prix. If he succeeded, the British would rejoin Nico Rosberg his former teammate at Mercedes now retired from the sport, as well as his compatriots Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart to the prize list with three wins in Monaco .
In addition to the tough competition of the Red Bull or Ferrari, Hamilton, that is the same for the other drivers, will also learn to control the news F1’cars on a circuit which don’t let any space for a mistake. Wider (both in terms of chassis and tyres), the 2017 single-seaters machines are also expected to be noticeably quicker. The gain will probably come to five seconds per lap. This incredible increase of the performance will, certainly, guarantee an absolutely breathtaking show at the Monegasque event."

Home » Daniel Ricciardo: “My favourite track”
Deprived of a first win in the Principality last year by a very long pit-stop, Daniel Ricciardo hopes that luck will finally turn in this season on his second home race.
« Monaco is definitely my favourite track to drive, said the current fifth in the championship. It is so tight, so intimidating. From the outside some of the sequences looks impossible to go through at the speed we do. Once you are in the car it’s an amazing feeling. »
Famous for its selectivity, the 3,337 km long circuit does not allow any leap of concentration from the drivers. Without comfortable run-off areas like most of modern circuits, « Smiling » knows that he will have to touch the limit and never surpass it.
« If you kiss the wall it actually makes you want to do it again as opposed to scaring you, explains the Aussie. The whole spectacle of the week-end just makes it something unique and special. »
