Formula One’s most iconic race, the Monaco Grand Prix, will be staged in June from 2026 as part of a new six-year agreement to remain on the calendar.

The Monaco Grand Prix is a processional shitshow that isn’t worth watching. The narrow streets and tight corners of the principality’s once-blue riband event are ill served by the ever longer and wider specifications of car mandated by Formula 1 in the modern era.

Formula One's iconic Monaco Grand Prix will remain on the calendar until at least 2031 after a six-year extension was announced on Thursday with a date change to June that also avoids future clashes with the Indianapolis 500.
