The Monaco Grand Prix is a Formula One race which is held on the streets of the Principality of Monaco. This historical, glamorous and spectacular event has been run annually since 1929, and it is widely considered to be one of the most important and prestigious automobile races.

The event was part of the pre-Second World War European Championship and was included in the first Formula One World Championship in 1950. The race is held on a narrow course laid out in the streets of Monaco. The elevation changes and tight corners make it one of the most demanding races.

The course which is 2.08 miles long and required drivers to complete 78 laps in the race, is one of the most important tracks in the sport.
Ayrton Senna, a Brazilian who drove for Toleman Hart, Lotus, McLaren, Honda and Williams holds the tile of winning most races at this track, racing from 1984 to 1994. It is McLaren who have most constructor winners at this track.

Last years race was won by Fernando Alonso in his Renault and this proved to be a very interesting race, it was Ferrari's Michael Schumacher who had fastest lap, but was penalised during the qualifying lap and sent to the back of the grid. The race was tightly contested between Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkinen for pole position, but this was settled after Raikkinen's McLaren caught fire.

This year was also won by Fernando Alonso representing McLaren-Mercedes, who completed 78 in  1:40:29:329. See more Grand Prix 2007 results!
