Get ready for the thrill of the Monaco Grand Prix in the world of Formula 1! After the excitement of Imola, where Max Verstappen clinched victory, the F1 World Championship races on to one of the most iconic events of the year: the Monaco Grand Prix. A track that has seen minimal changes since 1950, the year of the first F1 World Championship, Monaco is unforgiving with its narrow layout, making overtaking nearly impossible even for cars with slightly different paces.
The Monaco circuit boasts the lowest average lap speed in the entire championship, at around 150 km/h, coupled with very low grip and minimal tire wear. The softer tire compounds provide a good level of grip on the track’s tight corners, adding to the challenge for drivers.
With limited runoff areas and a high risk of incidents, the Safety Car has the potential to shake up the race results on Sunday, just as it has done in the past. Qualifying becomes crucial in Monaco, given the difficulty of passing during the race.
The schedule for the Monaco Grand Prix is as follows:
– Friday, May 23rd
– Free Practice 1: 12:30-13:30
– Free Practice 2: 16:00-17:00
– Saturday, May 24th
– Free Practice 3: 11:30-12:30
– Qualifying: 15:00-16:00
– Sunday, May 25th
– Race: 14:00
As the anticipation builds for this legendary race on the streets of Monaco, fans and drivers alike are gearing up for a spectacle like no other. Stay tuned for the heart-pounding action that only the Monaco Grand Prix can deliver!
