A whole year of the pandemic is behind us , when life seemed to freeze not only in Monaco , but throughout the world . Due to the coronavirus epidemic and restrictive measures , many events in 2020 were cancelled . The Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix and the Historical Grand Prix were no exception . But 2021 is a completely different story . Despite the ongoing pandemic , which has slowed down its pace but has not yet completely retreated , Monaco decisively got revenge for the lost year and managed to hold three races in one month : the Historic Grand Prix , Monaco E-Prix and the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix . The roar of car engines , excited fans , the famous hairpins and turns of the legendary Monaco track , the spirit of rivalry and the taste of victory — all this returned with renewed vigour and enthusiasm !
