- Michel Boeri says Monte Carlo will host races ‘beyond 2022’
- FIA defends safety car after Max Verstappen’s ‘turtle’ jibe
The organisers of the Monaco Grand Prix have said the race will remain on the Formula One calendar as the sport looks to accommodate new meetings. The street circuit’s contract ends this year but the president of the Automobile Club de Monaco, Michel Boeri, is confident a new deal will be agreed.
Monte Carlo hosted its first F1 race in the series’ opening year in 1950 and has become globally recognised for its track laid out on the city’s winding streets. However, the course is no longer suited to modern F1 cars and the race is often an uneventful procession.
