Formula 1 returns to the Principality of Monaco this weekend as the narrow streets of Monte Carlo host the sixth round of the 2023 season.
Originally scheduled to be the seventh event of the year, Monaco moved up one spot after F1 officials were forced to cancel last weekend’s race from Imola due to flooding in the area.
Red Bull’s Sergio Perez enters the weekend as the reigning winner at Monaco but trails team-mate Max Verstappen in the Drivers’ Championship by 14 points.
The duo are the only drivers to have won a race this year so far, and their rivals will be looking to stop their streak as soon as possible.
Once a tradition to host the first two practice sessions on Thursday, F1 switched to the more common Friday outings last year – and this year is no different.
