Sergio Perez is seeking back-to-back wins in Monaco
Following the cancellation of the Emilia Romagna GP, Formula 1 now heads to Monte Carlo for the glitz and glamour of the Monaco GP.
Initially the middle leg of a triple header, the Monaco GP – F1’s ‘crown jewel’ – now kicks off back-to-back race weekends, with the Spanish GP to follow.
Sergio Perez will be seeking to make it back-to-back wins in the Principality and close up to team-mate and championship leader Max Verstappen.
