Monaco Grand Prix – 2009

monaco If I could only go to one race, I think it would have to be Monaco. They don’t call it the “Jewel of the Formula One crown” for nothing. In fact, to watch the race from the deck of one of those yachts would be quite nice.

Formula One has been racing around the streets of Monaco since 1929. The place simply oozes in history, spectacle and glamor. The track itself is tricky; one small slip could end up putting your car into a wall. Plus, with not many places to overtake, race strategy and pit stops are crucial.

As for the race results, well, Jensen Button and Brawn took the podium again.
