F1 Race Today: Monaco Grand Prix 2026 start time, schedule, TV channel and FREE live stream

The 71st running of the legendary Monaco Grand Prix takes place today (Sunday, June 7).

The 2026 Monaco GP is the sixth round of this year's F1 season, and Italian teenager Kimi Antonelli will be looking to extend his lead in the drivers' championship over team-mate George Russell on Sunday.

Monaco's race is one of the most iconic in the motorsport calendar, and it made its debut on the F1 calendar back in 1950, when Argentina's Juan Manuel Fangio claimed success around the streets of the principality.

It wasn't until 1955 that it became a regular leg of the F1 world championship, however, and since then a plethora of F1 legends have graced the street circuit.

This year, the likes of seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, four-time champion Max Verstappen and hometown hero Charles Leclerc are trying to crash the Mercedes party, with the team having claimed all five grands prix victories in 2026 so far.
