Amongst the yachts, casinos, nightclubs and hotels, death-defying racing cars rocket through the narrow streets at an unbelievable 300km an hour. At a time where wider tracks and better adapted circuits have been purpose-built for safety reasons, Monaco appears to be a dangerous relic. Despite its difficult and unforgiving track, the Monaco Grand Prix is the highlight of the Formula I racing calendar. Stirling Moss believes it is the extra danger that makes Monaco preferable to other circuits. With previously unseen action and archive footage this film offers a rare insight into the world of motor racing by formula I legends such as Michael Schumacher, Mika Hakkinen, Jackie Stewart, Bernie Eccelston and Ayrton Senna. In their words this is the only place where motor racing heroes get to experience such intimacy with their crowd and rub shoulders with royalty. This fascinating film captures the carnival feel of motor racing, illustrating the importance of Monaco's unique location and how it can be regarded by many as jewel in the crown of Formula I.
