Formula 1 cars hit the streets of Monte Carlo once again today (Sunday, May 25) for the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix.

This weekend's race marks the eighth grand prix of the 2025 campaign, with three different race winners so far - Oscar Piastri, Max Verstappen and Lando Norris.

Heading into Sunday's race, Piastri leads the drivers' championship, but it is his McLaren team-mate Norris set to start on pole after coming out on top in a thrilling qualifying session on Saturday.

Norris just edged hometown hero Charles Leclerc at the very death in Q3, with the Monegasque driver splitting the two McLaren stars on Sunday's grid. Elsewhere, Max Verstappen will start fourth, benefiting from a penalty for Lewis Hamilton, who will now start down in P7.

With last year's race seeing just 17 overtakes according to F1, track position at Monaco is key, although it will be interesting to see how the introduction of a new mandatory two-stop rule shakes things up.
