Monaco GP Secures Future with New F1 Contract, Moves to June from 2026
Originally Published 1 year ago — by The Athletic
The Monaco Grand Prix will move to June from 2026 as part of a new six-year contract extension with Formula One, ensuring its place on the calendar until at least 2031. This change aims to improve the sustainability of the F1 schedule by reducing travel and environmental impact. The new date will also avoid clashing with the Indianapolis 500, allowing F1 drivers the opportunity to participate in both events. The move is part of F1's broader strategy to optimize its race calendar and align sponsorship and hosting agreements.
