A legendary race at the heart of Monaco!

The Monaco Grand Prix is an iconic motorsport event of the Formula 1 World Championship, held each year on the streets of Monte Carlo since 1929. Widely regarded as one of the most prestigious races in the world, alongside the Indianapolis 500, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the Rallye Monte-Carlo in motorsport legend, for the first time in 2025, the race adopted a title sponsor, becoming the “Formula 1 TAG Heuer Grand Prix de Monaco.” This milestone results from a partnership between Swiss watchmaker TAG Heuer and luxury group LVMH, further strengthening their presence in the world of Formula 1. Already the Official Timekeeper of Formula 1 and a partner of the Automobile Club de Monaco since 2011, TAG Heuer deepens its commitment to motorsport. This collaboration marks a new era for the Monaco Grand Prix — one that combines heritage with innovation. Since its inception in 1929, drivers and teams have relished the challenge of racing on the narrow, undulating streets of the Principality of Monaco, with its sharp corners, elevation changes, and iconic tunnel. It remains one of the most demanding circuits on the Formula 1 calendar — and one that every team and driver dreams of winning.

F1: Norris too strong, Leclerc in vain

He didn’t crack, he held off Charles Leclerc in his Ferrari to the very end! Lando Norris, who started from pole position, won the Formula 1 TAG Heuer Grand Prix de Monaco on Sunday, handing McLaren its first victory since 2008 on the streets of the Principality, the 16th overall for the British team in Monaco since Alain Prost in 1984.

Leclerc the Monegasque, who was playing at home, tried everything he could, right to the end, to defend his title and thwart the predictions in favour of the poleman, but Norris never gave him the slightest hope, or the slightest opening, and the podium was completed by another McLaren driver, Oscar Piastri, who remains at the top of the World Championship with a 3-point margin over Norris.

‘It’s a childhood dream come true,’ said Norris as he stepped out of his orange single-seater, before making his way up to the princely box to receive a gold medal from HSH Princess Charlene of Monaco, and the beautiful trophy which he will be able to carry in a trunk donated by the LVMH group.

Norris could be proud of his 6th win in F1, his second this season after Melbourne, having had a very tough time watching with Piastri’s four wins in 2025, including three in a row between the end of March and the beginning of May (Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Miami). He took ten points more this weekend than his Australian team-mate, in one go, and completely revived the championship, as there is now only a three-point gap between the two McLaren drivers (Piastri 161, Norris 158).

Leclerc’s fans hoped for a win all the way, as the Ferrari of the local hero, on medium Pirelli tyres, finished on the heels of the McLaren, on hard tyres, slowed down until two laps from the end by Max Verstappen (Red Bull). The four-time Dutch world champion, who started 4th, finished 4th having adopted a different strategy, based on stopping as late as possible to change tyres (medium then hard) and hoping for a red flag to interrupt the proceedings.

Hadjar 6th for Racing Bulls

There was no red flag, in particular because the rest of the field drove slowly behind Carlos Sainz (Williams) for a long time, and because the Racing Bulls of Isack Hadjar (6th), who had made his two compulsory stops very early on, and Liam Lawson, who was very consistent from start to finish, were never able to take advantage when the safety car came out. It was a gamble on race incidents, as for Verstappen, but it did not succeed.

This gamble had the merit of maintaining some sort of suspense, whereas Mercedes did not attempt anything at all. George Russell and Kimi Antonelli had missed their qualifying sessions, they also missed their race, finishing 11th and 18th, outside the points. While former Mercedes leader Lewis Hamilton took 5th place after another faultless race, having started 7th because of a 3-places penalty for getting in Verstappen’s way during qualifying.

We’ll remember this 82nd edition as a very intense event from start to finish, from Friday to Sunday, but that the two compulsory stops made absolutely no difference. They could have been useful, to spice up the show, if the Safety Car had come out of the pits. It remained quietly parked in the pitlane, after having been in great demand all morning, due to the pile-ups in the Formula 2 and Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup races. Everyone will meet again next week in Barcelona, for the 9th round of the 2025 Formula 1 season.
