Formula One Monaco Grand Prix Cruise

Race fans, get ready for an exciting experience. The Formula One Monaco Grand Prix, which is one of the biggest races of the year, is only about a month away. It’s something that almost every driver dreams of winning one day. It features a lot of technical strategies, split second decisions and often risky moves. For those that have ever seen this race either on TV or in person, they know that this isn’t an event for amateurs. This year the dates for the Formula One Monaco Grand Prix Cruise are May 25th – 28 2017. There are a few cabins left on the for this year, but we suggest planning in advance for 2018. How Formula One is Different Than Other Races This race sets apart the great drivers and the inexperienced. It takes sheer bravery to do what it takes to win. This track is more demanding than other races on the circuit. The cars are subject to a maximum downforce that requires drivers to have to brake often. For the drivers, not a second goes by that they can lose their train of thought as doing so can be deadly. The race has been taking place since 1955 and has gotten bigger and better each year. A new pit complex was created in 2004 that allows for even more spectators to watch the event. The All Time Formula One Winners It’s a real feat to win the Formula One Monaco Grand Prix once, let alone multiple times. Graham Hill, who has earned the nickname of ‘Mr. Monaco’ as well as driver Michael Schumacher, have won the event five times. Alain Prose has won it four times and both Stirling Moss and Jackie Stewart have won it three times each. However, the driver who has won it the most, at a whopping six times, is Ayrton Senna from Brazil.
