The Circuit de Monaco is one of the oldest European circuits, as the first inaugural race was held on its territory in 1929 and the Monaco Grand Prix was added to the first F1 world championship calendar in 1950.
The circuit is located on the streets of the neighborhoods of Monte Carlo and Condamine in the Principality of Monaco, and it usually takes six weeks to build, and is dismantled after the race for another three weeks.
