The 14th Grand Prix de Monaco Historique promises, like all of previous editions since 1997, to delight fans of racing cars from another era throughout the weekend. We had to wait two years, since 2022, to witness, once again, a superb retrospective of motor racing in the 20th century. The wait is about to be rewarded, with the added bonus of a special parade illustrating the late Ayrton Senna’s ascent to the pinnacle of motor sport, 30 years ago…
Since 1997, when the Grimaldi family decided to celebrate 700 years of reign by creating a unique event, it has been a must for motorsport enthusiasts and lovers of a certain art of living. It’s all about the beautiful machines that have written the legend of motor sport. So once again, from Friday to Sunday, thousands of spectators of all ages will be able to admire myriads of Ferraris, Maseratis and Lotuses, among other prestigious makes, driven in race conditions by men who, for some, have actively participated in the writing of several chapters of a never-ending book.
Over 200 racing cars of all engine sizes, including a majority of F1s, divided into 8 series corresponding to their period of existence in competition, will take to the track of the Monegasque circuit. They will be taking corners on a narrow track right in the middle of the city, roaring their engines to full power, in a popular fervour facilitated by direct access to the paddock and the actors of this breathtaking spectacle.
From the pre-war years to the 80s, dozens of makes will be represented, some of which have now disappeared, and there will be something for everyone. As Géry Mestre, President of the Automobile Club de Monaco’s (ACM) Collector Car Commission, explains so well, the Grand Prix de Monaco Historique is attracting more and more people, and the public is both younger and more feminine. At the wheel are semi-professional drivers and well-informed collectors with a staff of engineers and mechanics.
Previous editions have included Mika Häkkinen, Jean Alesi and René Arnoux, among others. The line-up for this 14th edition is particularly impressive: Adrian Newey, the famous engineer from Red Bull Racing, will be driving a 1968 Lotus, and Zak Brown, the head of McLaren F1, who has just triumphed in Miami, will be competing in a 1980 Williams FW07, alongside Wayne Taylor, the excellent American driver, in a 1977 Wolf. There will also be Soheil Ayari, in a Ligier, and a certain Ken Tyrrell, the perfect namesake of Uncle Ken, who has given many French drivers their first chance in Formula 1.
Once again, it’s going to be a festival of beautiful machines in perfect condition, to the delight of both eyes and ears. Enjoy it in the sunshine, armed with a fully-charged smartphone, so that you don’t miss a thing and you can take home some great memories…
At the wheel of this go-kart, 17-year-old Ayrton Senna became South American Champion in 1977, during a race organised in Uruguay, in the town of San José. He could not carry race number 42, his favourite at the time, because of the rules of the race, and so he carried number 7. Young Senna also finished 2nd at the Brazilian Championship, on the Interlagos track. This go-kart now belongs to McLaren F1 Team Principal Zak Brown. It will be driven in Monaco by Gabriel Bortoleto, a young Brazilian of the McLaren Drivers Academy, who was crowned FIA Formula 3 Champion last year.
After a very successful 1981 season (12 wins in 20 Formula Ford 1600 races, British Champion), Senna discovered the Van Diemen RF82 equipped with a much more powerful 2-litre engine. At just 22 years of age, he went on to win a record number of races (22) and the European Championship title. This 1982 Van Diemen will be driven in Monaco by Spain’s Cristina Gutiérrez, another member of the McLaren Drivers Academy.
The 1983 Formula 3 season was dominated by an insatiable Ayrton Senna, despite the formidable competition from a young Englishman, Martin Brundle, who gave him a hard time. The Brazilian came even closer to F1 by finishing British Champion with 12 victories. On November 20, 1983, Senna rounded off his masterclass with a prestigious victory at the Macau Grand Prix, at the wheel of this Toyota-powered Ralt RT3 entered by West Surrey Racing team and local billionaire Teddy Yip. The driver of this F3 Ralt in the Parade will be Irishman Eddie Irvine, who raced against Senna and won 4 times in F1, finishing on the podium 26 times.
This was the first F1 car driven by Ayrton Senna in the World Championship. Designed by Rory Byrne, it was very heavy, without power steering and powered by a British turbo engine, a Hart with around 600bhp. He scored three podiums in this car, including his famous 2nd place in Monaco, behind Alain Prost, in torrential rain that prompted Jacky Ickx to wave the red flag. They remain the only three podium finishes in the history of the British team founded by Ted Toleman, a road haulier who died in April 2024. This Toleman will be driven in Monaco by Swede Stefan Johansson, Senna’s team-mate in 1984.
Powered by a 1.5-litre Renault V6 turbo engine developing 760bhp, the Lotus 97T (T for turbo) was the F1 car in which the future “Magic Senna” won his first two Grands Prix, at Estoril and Spa-Francorchamps. It was equipped with several liquid crystal displays in the cockpit, a novelty at the time. It was a delight for Senna, who was very data-hungry. This now legendary single-seater also enabled the Brazilian to take his first seven pole positions, all in 1985. In Monaco, this Lotus 97T will be driven by Belgian Thierry Boutsen, who has won three times in F1 and who finished on the podium 15 times.
This McLaren MP4/5B was driven in 1990 by Ayrton Senna and his new team-mate Gerhard Berger, following Alain Prost’s departure to Ferrari. It was an evolution of the previous season’s MP4/5, as the British team did not want to create a new car, believing that the 1989 chassis was a good base on which to continue. It was fitted with a new Honda V10 engine, the RA100E, which developed an average of 700 bhp, depending on its configuration. This model took 6 victories and 12 pole positions that year, which concluded with two new world titles, drivers’ and constructors’, for Senna and McLaren. With a spectacular finale at Suzuka, when the Brazilian deliberately eliminated his great French rival. In the streets of Monaco, this amazing single-seater will be driven by Bruno Senna, the nephew of the three-time world champion, who competed in 46 F1 Grands Prix.
The 7th edition of the Monaco E-Prix was a great success for Mitch Evans and Jaguar TCS Racing! The British team scored a one-two finish at the Monaco round and extend their lead in the Manufacturers’ World Championship in the Season 10 of Formula E. Stoffel Vandoorne (DS Penske) finishes in 3rdposition.
He wanted it so he did it! Mitch Evans had come many times so close to victory in the Principality without ever achieving it. After three podium finishes in a row in 2021, 2022 and 2023, the Kiwi driving the number 9 car can finally stand on the winner’s top step of the Monaco E-Prix. An impressive win, achieved with style ahead of his team-mate Nick Cassidy.
Teamwork made Evans’ dream work
The victory of Mitch Evans, who started from 4th position on the grid, was the fruit of teamwork by Jaguar TCS Racing. “Everyone did a remarkable job. To be honest, I’d been waiting for this for so long, long before I started racing in Formula E. It was a great team effort with Nick [Cassidy],” said the New Zealander after the race, before adding that he was dedicating his Monaco win to Sir Colin Giltrap, a New Zealand automotive industrialist who died on 17 April 2024.
Thanks to a perfect blend of strategy and performance, the Coventry-based team has secured a superb one-two finish, their first of Season 10 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship. In addition to this brilliant result, Nick Cassidy, the other Kiwi in the Jaguar team, takes 2nd place in the drivers’ standings, behind Pascal Wehrlein.
Classified in 3rd position today, Stoffel Vandoorne (DS Penske) also claimed his first podium with the Versailles-based team. His team-mate Jean-Éric Vergne, winner of the 2019 Monaco E-Prix, follows in 4th place.
Behind this quartet, poleman Pascal Wehrlein (Porsche TAG Heuer Formule E Team) was unable to convert his starting position into victory. Despite a good start, the German dropped to 5th place after firing up Attack Mode. However, he stays in the lead in the Drivers’ World Championship by taking advantage of the poor performance of Jake Dennis (Andretti Formula E), who finished 20th because of a broken front wing.
A tricky race
The Monegasque circuit played tricks on other drivers. On lap 5, the safety car appeared on track. Edoardo Mortara’s car (Mahindra Racing) ended up in the wall in the swimming pool sector after a braking error. The race resumed on lap 9 with the trio made of Stoffel Vandoorne (DS Penske), Mitch Evans and Nick Cassidy leading. Later, with just a few laps to go, Nico Müller (ABT Cupra Team) ended his race in La Rascasse corner, necessitating the intervention of a new safety car.
DS Penske eventually tried its best to disrupt the Jaguar TCS Racing Team in their hope of winning. But the feline team was definitely too strong on Saturday in the Principality.
As Monaco prepares to host the Grand Prix de Monaco Historique (10-12 May 2024) and the Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco (23-26 May 2024), Formula E will make its return to the Principality on Saturday 3 May 2025*.
*Subject to validation by the FIA World Council on June 10, 2024.
A new poleman in the Principality. For this 7th edition of the Monaco E-Prix, Pascal Wehrlein will start from the first position. The German overcame all his rivals in qualifying to claim his third pole position of Season 10 of Formula E.
We now know who will be on pole for the 7th Monaco E-Prix! Pascal Wehrlein (TAG Heuer Porsche Formule E Team), 29, takes over from Jake Hughes last year and will start from pole position at 3:03 pm. At the same time, he picked up 3 extra points in the drivers’ championship standings.
Experience was key during this session. At the end of the group stage*, the 5 winners of the Monaco E-Prixcould still claim pole position. In the end, the final qualifying duel pitted the German against Stoffel Vandoorne, driving a DS Penske in a livery specially created for the event. Neither of these two drivers had taken pole position in the Principality. The public was therefore guaranteed to see an unprecedented poleman.
With this result, the World Championship leader has scored a major coup, since his closest rival this season, Jake Dennis, was eliminated in the group stage. Disappointment was also on the order of the day for Jaguar TCS Racing. The Coventry (UK) based firm had performed well during Free Practice this morning, but failed in its quest for the front row in the semi-final. Mitch Evans and Nick Cassidy lost to Pascal Wehrlein and Stoffel Vandoorne; who both set tremendous pace. They will start on the 2nd row.
Next on track: at 1:45 pm, David Coulthard will drive the GEN3 Evo which was presented on Thursday by Formula E and the FIA. The start of the 7th Monaco E-Prix is scheduled for 3:03 pm.

After Free Practice 1, it was time for Free Practice 2. The last “test” before plunging into the “qualifying magic” for the Monaco E-Prix 2024 around the 3.337km circuit, the session saw – as in the FP1 – Mitch Evans finish first.
Free Practice 2 at the Monaco E-Prix 2024 was the final practice session before qualifying. The Jaguar TCS Racing cars got off to a strong start with Nick Cassidy and Mitch Evans setting the fastest times. But the competition was fierce, with a succession of different drivers topping the timesheets.
In the end, Mitch Evans (Jaguar TCS Racing) set the fastest time in FP2. In good shape early on this morning on a circuit he knows well, the Auckland native confirmed his good feeling on the Monegasque track by improving his time by almost a second compared to the previous session. The Kiwi also claimed pole in 2022.
Thanks to the Jaguar I-Type 6 driven by Robin Frijns (Envision Racing), the Coventry-based engine manufacturer was also represented in 2nd position. The Dutch is gaining confidence ahead of the forthcoming qualifying sessions. World Championship co-leader Pascal Wehrlein (TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team) finished 3rd in the session.
This final test saw a number of drivers make mistakes. Leading at the halfway point, Edoardo Mortara (Mahindra Racing) – as Sam Bird earlier – missed his braking point at Sainte-Dévote. However, The Swiss-Italian was able to return to the pits. He finished 12th.
Following his crash at Sainte-Dévote in FP1, Sam Bird withdrew from the race and was replaced by Taylor Barnard in the NEOM McLaren Formula E car. Aged 19 years and 331 days, the Woking-based company’s reserve driver becomes the youngest ever driver to take part in a Formula E race. For his first time behind the wheel of a GEN3, the Norwich native finished 22nd and last.
Practice is now over. Coming up: the qualifying session scheduled at 10:40 am to determine the starting grid.
Start of the 7th Monaco E-Prix, round 8 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, on Saturday at Formula E World Championship, on Saturday at 3:03 pm.

It’s off to a flying start! At 7:30 am on Saturday, the single-seaters of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship took to the track for the first Free Practice session. First adjustments but also first mistakes as the drivers get their bearings in the Principality.
Who will start first on the grid at the Monaco E-Prix 2024? Although it’s hard to say at the moment, Mitch Evans (Jaguar TCS Racing) is first driver to put his name at the top of the timesheets at the Monaco E-Prix 2024.
As in last year’s Free Practice, one of the two New Zealanders from Jaguar TCS Racing set the fastest time in the 1st morning session. A good sign for the future, given that he is chasing his first victory in Monaco and has a total of 3 podium finishes to his name. He is also looking for his first win of Season 10 of Formula E.
Robin Frijns follows in second place with the Envision Racing Team. The British team has every chance of shining in Monaco, as the green and blue team’s single-seater is the title holder in the Principality. Nick Cassidy (Jaguar TCS Racing), winner of the event in 2023, rounds off the FP1 podium.
The session was interrupted by a red flag at 7:42 am for 3 minutes after Edoardo Mortara’s electric single-seater (Mahindra Racing) clipped the rail, without damages. Then, with 9 minutes remaining in the session, Sam Bird’s NEOM Mclaren Formula E Team hit the barriers at Sainte-Dévote. The winner of the Sao-Paulo E-Prix 2024 was forced to retire in the session.
At the end of FP1, the first practice starts were carried out in preparation for the race, which gets underway at 3:03 pm. See you at 9:10 am for Free Practice 2!
Start of the 7th Monaco E-Prix, 8th round of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship

Who will win the 7th Monaco E-Prix ? Many of the 22 drivers are dreaming of a coronation in the Principality. Here’s a look at the pre-race impressions of the event’s protagonists before they take to the track for the first time this Saturday.
Pascal Wehrlein (TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team) and Jake Dennis (Andretti Formula E) are neck-and-neck in the Championship with 89 points scored.
Pascal Wehrlein’s success in round 2 at Misano means he can look forward to a 2nd win in a row this season. And why not in the Principality, where the German’s best result was 4th place in season 5 ? “We’re still missing that win in Monaco. I think we missed the opportunity two years ago when we had problems while leading the race. That was sad. But I think we can be very strong this year. The car is ready and we’re prepared. All we have to do is get the job done and get good results, avoiding mistakes and penalties, and I’m sure we’ll be competitive.”
4th in the drivers’ championship standings, Nick Cassidy (Jaguar TCS Racing) – the winning driver in Monaco in 2023 – is hoping to repeat his feat. Even so, the native of Auckland (New Zealand) is cautious ahead of testing. “I don’t really know what to expect. Honestly, I think it’ll be interesting (…) There’ll be a lot of competition, but it should be a good fight.”
For his teammate and compatriot Mitch Evans, the precautionary principle also prevailed. The reason: several showers hit the Monaco region on Friday. All the more reason for the teams to adapt to all circumstances. “That’s one of the things you can’t control in life. No matter what obstacles we encounter, we’ll do what we have to, but predictions vary all the time.”
Jean-Éric Vergne (DS Penske), winner of the 2019 edition and 3rd in the Monaco E-Prix 2022, is hoping for another victory. A great way to open his amount of wins in season 10: “We’ve considerably improved the pace of this car compared with last year. We got some good results in qualifying, but we were unlucky in the race. We’re not very far from the leaders.” The current record-holder for the number of points scored in Formula E (1047 points) since the Misano round (Italy) acknowledges, however, that the competition is tight between the various teams. “They’re all very good. I think in Formula E, more than ever, it’s important to be consistent,” says the 2018 and 2019 Formula E Champion in his pre-race conference.
Currently 10th in the championship, Norman Nato (Andretti Formula E) is willing to do his best in front of his – almost – home crowd. His move to the Indianapolis team in season 10 from Nissan has raised hopes for the driver from Cannes. To date, his best result is a 13th-place finish on the streets of Monaco. “In terms of pure performance, I think I’ve taken a step forward. The performance is there. In Tokyo, we managed to score points thanks to our good strategy, so I’m pretty confident about my chances of scoring big points.”
Will the rain come? Which driver will splash the Principality with his talent? To find out, keep an eye on the 7th Monaco E-Prix. Free Practice 1 kicks off at 07:30 this Saturday!

What better place to dress up than the Principality of Monaco? The DS Penske team, competing in Season 10 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, has decided to wear a very special livery for the Monaco E-Prix 2024, with hopes to shine first on the finish line.
If there’s one circuit DS Penske knows well, it’s the one of the Monaco E-Prix. On the racetrack of 3.337 km,the DS Penske team has won twice, including in 2019 with Jean-Éric Vergne. Winner with Mercedes-EQ in 2022, Stoffel Vandoorne, now team-mate of “JEV”, is also a specialist of the legendary circuit.
There’s no doubt that the setting of the sumptuous Principality gives the teams in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship the chance to shine. That’s why the DS PENSKE team, with its DS E-TENSE FE23, will be racing in a special livery. The name says it all: “Grand Gala”.
Usually, the DS PENSKE team races on the world’s racetracks in a predominantly gold livery with a touch of black. In a “nod to the glamorous evenings of Monaco”, in the words of Eugenio Franzetti, Director of DS Performance, the team’s single-seater – currently 5th in the Constructors’ Championship – is changing. On Saturday, April 27, 2024, the car will feature a predominantly black color scheme with a few gold highlights.
Let’s hope this livery brings luck to the Versailles-based team. The team is looking for its first win since Jean-Éric Vergne’s victory at the Hyderabad E-Prix on February 11, 2023. The Frenchman is currently 6th in the Formula E Season 10 drivers’ standings, while Stoffel Vandoorne is 11th.

It will be the face of Formula E season 11. The model of the new Formula E GEN3 Evo was revealed on Thursday April 25 at a ceremony held at the Car Collection of H.S.H. the Prince of Monaco just ahead of the Monaco E-Prix 2024. The event is the 8th round of the season 10 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.
Speed, efficiency and reliability. Three key words that characterize the GEN3 Evo, the Formula E model that will be on the track next season. Unveiled just before the start of the Monaco E-Prix, this evolutionary version of the GEN 3 – the one racing in season 10 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship – is very promising.
This car is the result of a joint effort by the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) and the Formula E organization, the GEN3 Evo is nothing less than the fastest FIA single-seater in the world! It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 1.86 seconds! That’s 30% quicker than a current Formula 1 car. That’s enough to satisfy the winner of the 2019 Monaco E-Prix, Jean-Éric Vergne: “I think Formula E understands that we need more speed. We should be going faster, and this is a great way to move forward.” A reflection shared by Cyril Blais, Team Principal of Maserati MSG Racing, the Monaco Formula E Team racing on home soil this weekend in the Principality. “The FIA is listening to the team’s feedback. The car looks good and is less sensitive to drag. The 0 to 60 km/h will be great. Electric cars are very fast even if we save energy. It’s a good technological showcase of what Formula E cars can do.”
Time-wise, this car is capable of completing a lap of the Monaco circuit 2 seconds faster than its predecessor. Moreover, Formula E estimates a 2% gain in performance over the current GEN3 generation. The GEN3 Evo will also have a top speed of 322 km/h. Ian James, manager of the NEOM McLaren Formula E Team, shows his enthusiasm: “The work done [between the FIA and Formula E] allows the whole package to reach its full potential. It’s going to improve the races. I think it’s a huge opportunity”.
These innovations are made possible by an all-wheel drive system. It will be available during qualifying, starts, and when the Attack-Mode is deployed. Regenerative braking and upgrades to the racing software have also been introduced.
The Hankook tires that will be fitted on the car will increase grip by an estimated 10%. In addition to performance, the GEN3 Evo boasts an even more refined visual and aerodynamic appearance. It also features a narrower nose.
The first laps of the GEN3 Evo are due to take place in Season 11 of the Formula E. But before looking to the future, the public can enjoy the present and see 22 Formula E single-seaters speeding through the Principality on Saturday, April 27, 2024!
Start of the 7th Monaco E-Prix, round 8 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, Saturday at 15h03 CET

The new-generation electric single-seaters series seen last year return to Monaco for the 8th round of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, which promises a lot : all the previous winners of the event are back, and the battle at the top of the championship is more indecisive than ever, with two drivers tied in 1st position, Pascal Wehrlein and reigning champion Jake Dennis.
Sébastien Buemi, Jean-Éric Vergne, Antonio Felix Da Costa, Stoffel Vandoorne and Nick Cassidy. Five of these drivers have shared 100% victories in the Principality since the very first edition in 2015. And they’re all keen to repeat the feat or add another prestigious line to their already impressive careers. Perhaps that will be on Saturday at 4:00 p.m., after a festival of overtaking and drama, as is often the case on the prestigious Monaco Circuit.
Judge for yourself: the 2023 edition saw spectators on the site or in front of their televisions witness 116 overtakes, until Nick Cassidy, who switched to Jaguar TCS Racing this winter, won the race from 9th place on the grid. As for Jean-Eric Vergne, he also made a sumptuous recovery from 22nd to 7th place, finishing in the points. Once again, this year, Cassidy and “JEV” – his official nickname – are among the favorites, but they’re not the only ones, judging by the results of this impressive start to the season.
Six winners in seven rounds…
In 7 rounds contested since the start of 2024, there have been six different winners: Wehrlein first, as the TAG Heuer Porsche driver won in Mexico City to open the season in style, his fifth in Formula E. Then Jake Dennis (Andretti), the reigning champion, shone under the sunlight of Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, and secured, by 13 seconds, the sixth victory of his career in the most innovative series in motorsport.
The following day, it was Jaguar TCS Racing’s new driver, Nick Cassidy, who took his first win for his new team on the same track. Then it was back to Brazil, in São Paulo, where a fourth driver, Sam Bird, scored a historic victory: the NEOM McLaren team’s first ever Formula E win. The Brit had not won since the New York E-Prix in 2021, taking part in 37 races without winning a single one.
Maserati wins in Tokyo, Nissan in Italy…
For Formula E’s first visit to Tokyo, and to make the scenario perfect, the front-running single-seater at the start bore the colors of a Japanese brand: Nissan, thanks to Oliver Rowland, podium finishers in Brazil and author of a superb pole position in the streets of Tokyo. Further proof that this Formula E Season 10 is even more open and exciting than previous ones, thanks also to the GEN3 cars introduced last year.
Nissan and Rowland didn’t win in Japan, as Maximilian Günther (Maserati MSG Racing) took victory on Japanese soil after a thrilling race. But Rowland got his revenge in the very next race, at Misano (Italy), when he won by forfeit in the 6th round of the season, following the disqualification of Antonio Felix da Costa, the other TAG Heuer Porsche driver, due to a technical problem (non-conformity of his throttle damper spring).
Two races were held at Misano, and in round 7, the day after the Portuguese driver’s disqualification, his TAG Heuer Porsche team-mate Pascal Wehrlein avenged the Stuttgart firm in style by becoming the first driver to win twice in 2024. He arrives in the Principality as co-leader of the World Championship, with 89 points, and thus on a par with reigning champion, Jake Dennis.
But it’s not all over yet, because at mid-season the chasing pack is particularly motivated: starting with Oliver Rowland (80 points) and Nick Cassidy (76), closely followed by Maximilian Günther (63), Jean-Eric Vergne (53) and Mitch Evans (52). Place your bets !
