Monaco Grand Prix 2024: Time, schedule, TV channel, live stream for F1 race week

We're gearing up for one of the jewels in the crown across both Formula One and the entire world of motorsport, as arguably the most well-known race on the F1 calendar, the Monaco Grand Prix, begins today from the Circuit de Monaco in Monte Carlo.

It's the second Europe-based race of 10 on the schedule in 2024, and comes hot on the heels of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix last weekend. Three-time world champion Max Verstappen picked up a fifth win from seven races so far this season, but was pushed all the way by Lando Norris — the Miami GP winner finished just 0.725 seconds behind the Dutchman.

The 2024 Monaco Grand Prix begins on Friday, May 24 with the first of three practice sessions, the last of which leads into qualifying on Saturday, May 25. Race day will follow on Sunday, May 26, and takes place on the iconic Circuit de Monaco, a unique street circuit pitting drivers against all the twists and turns of Monte Carlo over 78 high-octane laps.

The race itself on Sunday, May 26 will begin at 3:00 p.m. local time (CET), and Verstappen will be looking to pull further clear of the chasing pack, including the emergent Lando Norris as a serious Drivers' Championship contender, with a sixth win from eight in 2024. He edged Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon to claim the chequered flag at Monte Carlo in 2023.

This race is arguably the most prestigious of all meetings on the Formula One calendar, and that's backed up by the its status as one third of the Triple Crown of Motorsport — alongside the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Indianapolis 500. It's the shortest race by far of all F1 circuits, but that's never threatened its status as one of the biggest events there is in the sport.
