After a spectacularly unpredictable Spanish Grand Prix, where Lewis Hamilton took Nico Rosberg out on Lap 1 and Max Verstappen claimed his maiden victory, Formula One heads down the Mediterranean coast to Monaco.

The Monaco Grand Prix was first held in 1929 and has been run continuously since 1955.

Run through the tight, twisty streets of the city, Monaco remains perhaps the toughest test of the season for the drivers. Even the smallest mistakes are punished with a race-ending smash into the Armco barriers lining the circuit. If you hate the endless run-off areas at the modern, Hermann Tilke-designed tracks, Monaco is the race for you.

"When I think of Monaco, I always remember the first time I drove there in a Formula 1 car and went at full speed," said Toro Rosso's Daniil Kvyat in the team's race preview. "The first lap was a bit scary, as it's so narrow!"

Rosberg, the championship leader, was raised in Monaco and has won the last three races there. Last year, Hamilton was on track for victory until he made an ill-advised pit stop behind the safety car after Verstappen drove into the back of Romain Grosjean, handing the race to his team-mate.

Will Mercedes retain their dominant form and get through Sainte Devote with both cars intact, or will Red Bull and Ferrari take advantage of Monaco's unique characteristics to close the gap to the Silver Arrows?
