One weekend per year, the Formula 1 paddock embraces the archaic and the arcane of the Monaco Grand Prix that continues to defy the test of time.
Long before the advent of Las Vegas or Miami, Monaco was F1's stereotypical marquee event that basked in its own glamour. Monaco, which first saw grand prix racing in 1929, and Formula 1 helped put each other on the map in the 50s and 60s, with the grand prix building up a worldwide renown that has made it synonymous with the series and part of the Triple Crown of motor racing events alongside the Indianapolis 500 and the Le Mans 24 Hours.
'With the size and the weight of these cars, they're too big to be racing around these streets,' said Horner. 'We race here because of the history, the heritage, and it's a phenomenal venue. But by and large, this race will be won in qualifying. 'To have a really entertaining race here, then we ought to look at at least the possibility of opening up some areas that could potentially create at least an overtaking opportunity.
