Last year in Monaco, Lando Norris picked up his first win at the historic venue, beating Charles Leclerc to victory across 78 tense laps. The win cut Oscar Piastri’s championship lead to just three points, tightening one of the best title fights in recent memory.
Now the 2026 season rolls into Monte Carlo for round six, and the stakes are just as high. Kimi Antonelli arrives on a four-race winning streak, with George Russell now 43 points behind after retiring in Canada with a power unit issue.

Monaco Grand Prix 2026 Full Weekend Schedule
Track action kicks off on June 5 with Free Practice 1 at 13:30 CEST, followed by FP2 at 17:00 CEST.
On June 6, Practice 3 runs from 12:30 to 13:30 CEST, with qualifying at 16:00 CEST. The race itself begins at 15:00 CEST on June 7, running 78 laps around the streets of Monte Carlo.
There is no sprint format this weekend, with Monaco running the traditional format of three practice sessions, qualifying, and the Grand Prix.
Overtaking on race day is almost impossible around the narrow Monte Carlo streets, which makes Saturday’s qualifying the most decisive session of the entire weekend. Ferrari fancies its chances here, but stopping Antonelli right now is a task nobody has managed to figure out yet.
