These are the schedules that you must know so as not to miss F1 this weekend.
Formula 1 returns to action with the 2023 Monaco Grand Prix, after a mandatory rest weekend due to the cancellation of the Imola GP due to the floods that have affected the Emilia-Romagna region in recent days. These are the times of each session and how to watch the race live on TV, free, paying and online.
Monaco is one of the most special races on the F1 calendar… because the Monaco GP has been held even earlier than Formula 1 was Formula 1! The first edition of the Grand Prix dates from 1929, an inaugural date where William Grover-Williams won, with a Bugatti.
Quickly, Monaco became the urban test par excellence, attended by some of the greatest European fortunes and also recognized stars from sports, cinema, music… and, of course, from business.
The winner has historically been received by the Monegasque Royal Family, and although nothing is comparable to being a world champion, winning in the Principality may be the closest thing… since it is a test where the quality of the driver comes to the fore. shine more than in any other place, due to the proximity of the walls and the risks that must be taken both to make a better lap and to overtake.

Seen the dominance of the first races, it is clear that Red Bull also starts as favorite in Monaco. However, here the differences between teams are expected to be minor and other teams like Aston Martin, Ferrari or Mercedes could have a chance to challenge Max Verstappen and Sergio Pérez.
If there is a track where Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz can stand up to Red Bull, it is definitely that of the Principality. Alonso, curiously, has something to say on Sunday, May 28, as he has advanced in an enigmatic message on Twitter. Sainz, for his part, comes from finishing in second position last year.
In both 2021 and 2022, the victory went to Red Bull: in 2021 Verstappen won, and in 2022 Pérez did.
