This is how to watch the Formula 1 2026 Monaco Grand Prix, which takes place from 5-7 June.

We’ve also listed the start times for all of this weekend’s F1 sessions below, in both Monaco time and UK time.

After a stop-start beginning to the 2026 season, F1 is finally heading to Europe for a run of four races in five weeks, representing the start of an intense period of action over the summer months.

This streak of races begins with F1’s Jewel in the Crown in Monaco, where Andrea Kimi Antonelli will be hoping to further build his early championship lead over Mercedes team-mate George Russell.

Antonelli heads Russell by 43 points after clinching his fourth consecutive victory last time out at the Canadian Grand Prix, while Russell suffered a heartbreaking retirement when his Mercedes engine failed.

However, Mercedes may not have it all its own way after enjoying an unbeaten start to 2026, with Ferrari tipped as early favourites for victory around the tight and twisty streets of the iconic Monte Carlo.
