Upcoming Events
The 6th edition of the Monaco E-Prix has kicked off! To mark the start of an exceptional weekend, the Place du Casino in Monte-Carlo welcomed the world of Formula E for an electrifying evening on Wednesday.
The celebrations began with the presentation of the cars of the 11 Formula E teams at the foot of the famous steps of the Casino de Monte-Carlo. A symbolic place in the Principality, the new GEN 3 single-seaters posed in front of the lens of speed enthusiasts, allowing fans and the international press to get up close and personal with the electric single-seaters that will take to the streets of Monaco this Saturday.
Since 2015, the Monaco E-Prix has become a staple event of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship. Spectators have been able to admire the cars’ details, bright colors, and futuristic designs, which highlight the technological innovation of the discipline.
The drivers of the Avalanche Andretti team (Jake Dennis / Andre Lotterer) and the local Maserati MSG Racing team (Edoardo Mortara / Maximilian Günther) also took part in the evening, dressed in their best tuxedos for the occasion.
This foretaste announces an exciting program to come, by way of conclusion the race that will take place from 3:04 p.m. this Saturday, May 6 in Monaco.

For two days, the ACM Marshals’ Corps facilities, where all the equipment required by the volunteer teams is stored and maintained throughout the year at the gates of the Principality, were in a state of ebullience! The 698 stewards of the 2023 events (6th Monaco E-Prix / 80th Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco) were invited to collect their equipments. Suit, helmet, gloves, belt… The volunteers of the Automobile Club de Monaco received their outfits which will enable them to ensure safety during the practice sessions and races.
This year, as part of the commemoration of the centenary of the birth of Prince Rainier III, a symbolic patch will be worn by all our Marshals on their chests in tribute to his memory.
In a few days’ time, the guardian angels of the Monegasque track will be at work to ensure the smooth running of the races and the safety of the drivers on the occasion of the 6th Monaco E-Prix (6th May) and the 80th Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco (25th-28th May).
Heading for the Monaco E-Prix! On Saturday 6th May, the Principality of Monaco will be hosting the FIA ABB Formula E World Championship for the 6th edition.

The Monaco Fire Brigade in support
The Principality’s Fire Brigade, a long-standing participant in this Training Camp, was once again involved this year on Saturday to prepare our volunteers for the risks of setting fire to a car. Crossing a rail, handling a fire extinguisher, evacuating an injured person, first aid… The Marshals present were able to review with the fire professionals the practices necessary for this type of risk.
In figures
This year, 562 Marshals took part in the Training Course, supervised by a hundred or so managers. Of the 85 applications shortlisted at the end of the registration campaign, 56 new candidates were able to take part in the weekend’s workshops, of which 1/3 were women. The trend is also towards younger teams, with an average age of 39 for 2023, the first time this has happened in several years. In addition, 35 “foreign” stewards will be on hand for the next two events, from international circuits.
The new features
A key workshop of the weekend under the “Chapiteau de Fontvieille”, training in signalling and flag handling is now simulated on a brand-new circuit with electric karting. This is an asset in order to reproduce as well as possible the real conditions to which the Marshals will be exposed during the races. In this workshop, different race scenarios are studied in order to work specifically on the application of the flagging rules on the track.
In addition, the workshop to raise awareness of the electrical risks incurred with single-seaters in Formula 1 and Formula E has been reinforced. Finally, we should note the appearance of a gearbox in the “Gazelle” workshop, so that the candidates can practice evacuating this type of element from the track.
Coming up
The management of the “Corps des Commissaires” will meet in the next few days to validate the presence of the new candidates in all the teams. The General Meeting will then take place on 25 April to receive the latest information, followed by the handover of equipment and uniforms on 28 & 29 April before taking part in the 6th Monaco E-Prix (6 May) and the 80th Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco (25-28 May).

For the 7th edition of the “zero” emission Rallye Monte-Carlo, the Organising Committee of the Automobile Club de Monaco was keen to innovate, in line with the spirit of the event created in 1995 (Rally Monte-Carlo for Electric Vehicles). As the 8th round on the FIA World eco Rally Cup calendar, the 2023 E-Rallye Monte-Carlo will offer a mix of modernity, prestige and intensity.
In 2023, the event will be held in a new host territory. For the next autumn, the E-Rallye Monte-Carlo will move to the Principality of Monaco. This new event location on Monegasque territory will follow in the footsteps of its WRC cousin, and will offer a symbolic and prestigious postcard. The “Terrasses du Soleil” will once again welcome all the crews this year for a Parc Fermé, located below the prestigious Casino de Monte-Carlo.
Monaco On’s capacity to host and develop recharging facilities in the Principality of Monaco will allow as many participants as possible to take part in the 2023 E-Rallye Monte-Carlo.
This 7th edition will also be an opportunity to drive through the roads of the Monegasque hinterland, with an itinerary that will take competitors to some of the legendary places of the Monte-Carlo history. The route of the E-Rallye is also made up of discoveries and bucolic landscapes, in idyllic settings such as the event can offer every year.
Stay tuned!

Since 6th March, the big transformation of the Principality of Monaco into a real racetrack has started. For almost 2 months (7 weeks to be exact), Automobile Club de Monaco staff and its suppliers will be mobilised to prepare this iconic urban circuit in order to welcome Formula E cars for the 6th Monaco E-Prix (6th May) and Formula 1 cars for the 80th F1 Grand Prix de Monaco (25th-28th May) in the best conditions.
Almost 50% of the circuit resurfaced!
In 2023, the asphalt repair work on the roads used by the Monegasque track will be completed at the beginning of the build-up period and will result in almost 50% of the track being resurfaced. This year, 3 sectors are affected: the Boulevard Albert 1er (starting grid and pit lane), the Tunnel Louis II and the Darse Sud. Nearly 15,000 m2 of asphalt were repaired, the equivalent of about 1,800 tonnes of new surface.
This is always an impressive job, carried out at night by the teams of the Department of Urban Development and SIVIA’M, to avoid disturbing road traffic in the Principality. Between the planning phases of the upper part of the asphalt and the application of the new asphalt the following night, 2 nightly sessions are necessary for each sector. The aim was to ensure that the surface meets international standards and provides the cars with an optimum surface, all on routes exposed to intense road traffic all year round.

Emblematic building of the circuit, real nerve centre of the events, the Race Direction began its assembly this week. This 1500m² structure is composed by 77 modules, with a total surface of 1500m². These modules will make up the 5 levels of the building (17m high) which will house the two control rooms of the circuit, meeting rooms and areas reserved for guests.
