Long before the advent of Las Vegas or Miami, Monaco was F1's marquee event that basked in its own glamour.
Monaco, which first saw grand prix racing in 1929, and Formula 1 helped put each other on the map in the '50s and '60s. The grand prix built up a worldwide renown that has made it synonymous with the world championship and part of the Triple Crown of motor racing events alongside the Indianapolis 500 and Le Mans 24 Hours.
