About this title

Synopsis

Exquisite photographs, most of them published here for the first time, provide an intimate portrait of the Monaco Grand Prix, from the first race in 1929 through to the present day. The images come from three collections – British photographer Michael Hewett, who has attended every race since 1962, the Rainier family’s Palace Archives and the Monaco Tourist Board. Shot from every possible vantage point on the mountainous street circuit, the photographs capture the magic of this fabulous event.
