Mercedes teammates Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg at the 2015 Monaco Grand Prix The Monaco Grand Prix is the most prestigious race in the Formula 1 calendar and indeed one of the most renowned racing events in the world. Yet for all its glamour, heritage, and money, the Monaco Grand Prix is persistently one of…
Nothing like champagne to mix with the sweat after a race. There will be no easy way to summarize this Grand Prix. The weekend was not punctuated but rather flooded by episodes of heavy rain, marked by important safety car periods, and highlighted by excellent driving all around.
