F1 resumes its rights this weekend with the Monaco GP 2023! A week after the cancellation of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, due to the floods that hit northern Italy, the paddock is taking up residence this weekend in monaco where the sixth round of the 2023 world championship will be held.

A year ago, Mexican driver Sergio Perez triumphed in Monaco ahead of his teammate Max Verstappen for a Red Bull double. Winner of the last Grand Prix played three weeks ago on the side of Miami, the Dutchman won only once in the Principality, in 2021. Leader of the world championship after six races, Max Verstappen will once again be the driver to beat this weekend.
In Monaco, where the spectacle is often at the rendezvous, on a slow and tortuous circuit, the opponents of the Red Bulls can believe in their chances, starting with the Ferraris, the Mercedes and the Aston Martins, all in search of a first victory this season. Will the unchallenged domination of the Austrian team in 2023 come to an end on Sunday in the Principality? Find below the complete program of this Grand Prix of Monaco.
