Chartering at the Monaco Grand Prix
The Monaco Grand Prix is the most famous and glamorous event of the Formula 1 calendar. It runs over four days, with qualifying from Thursday with the big race day on Sunday. Regardless of the day, for those watching it from onboard a superyacht, the experience is unmatchable and truly one of a kind.
If you are not familiar with the Grand Prix, the Monaco F1 GP is considered the most difficult and slowest circuit in Formula 1, but it ranks high in style and sophistication.
Chartering a yacht during the MGP allows you to not only have possibly the best-watching spot in the whole of Monaco but also the most glamorous accommodation, right in the centre of the event’s elite social scene.
A brief history of the Monaco Grand Prix
Monaco’s first Grand Prix began in 1929, as a car enthusiast rally, organised at the time by Automobile Club of Monaco and Antony Noghes. Naturally, the only way the race could be held was in the narrow streets of Monaco, which, with their tight corner and elevation changes make it the toughest track to race on in Formula One.
Due to World War II, the races had to be cancelled from 1938 but it began again in 1955 as part of the Formula One World Championships. As a matter of fact, one of the race’s earliest winners, Graham Hill, also known as Mr. Monaco won the race five fives back in the 1960s! The only person to break Mr. Hill’s record was Brazilian driver, Ayrton Senna, who has had an impressive six wins between 1989 and 1993.
