Monaco Grand Prix 2025: Tradition, Spectacle, and the Art of Living

From May 22 to 25, 2025, the Principality will host the 82nd edition of the Formula 1 TAG Heuer Monaco Grand Prix, a legendary race blending sporting excellence, glamour, and exclusive festivities.



A Legendary Race with New Strategic Twists

This year, the FIA introduces a new rule: two mandatory pit stops, regardless of tire wear or weather conditions.

Drivers must use at least two different tire compounds, making strategy even more crucial on a circuit famous for its overtaking difficulties.

Lewis Hamilton, now racing for Ferrari, welcomed this initiative, which he claims to have suggested to make the race more exciting.



Favorites for the 2025 Edition

Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari): three-time Monaco winner, chasing a fourth victory and his eighth world title.

Max Verstappen (Red Bull): the reigning world champion remains the man to beat.

Charles Leclerc (Ferrari): the local hero hopes to shine at home, cheered on by his passionate fans.

Lando Norris (McLaren): a rising star capable of pulling off a surprise on this tricky track.
