On May 16, Sunday the Monaco’s streets will once again host one of Europe's premier social highlights of the year as well as a sporting spectacle best known as the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix (French: Grand Prix de Monaco). Monaco Grand Prix held each year on the Circuit de Monaco is considered to be one of the most important and prestigious automobile races in the word.
The Circuit de Monaco is one of the most exciting in the world, leaving little room for driver error with 78 laps running on a 3.340 km (2.075 mi) circuit. The circuit races around the narrow, winding streets of Monte Carlo and La Condamine, including the famous harbor. It includes a tunnel where the contrast of light and dark as the drivers enter/exit the tunnel serves as the ultimate test of driving skill in Formula One. The Circuit’s best lap is 1:14.439 by Michael Schumacher in 2004. Will the 2009 winner Jenson Button and other current Formula One racers be able to top it this 2010? Let’s find out.
