How to watch Monaco Grand Prix: live stream the F1 race from anywhere for FREE
This weekend's Monaco Grand Prix is one of the most historic and iconic races of the 2025 Formula 1 season.
Its roll of honour reads like a Who's Who of Formula 1 champions, and it's safe to say that this is one race that everybody on the grid will be desperate to win. Of the current crop of drivers, only Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen, Fernando Alonso and Monaco native Charles Leclerc know what it feels like to take the checkered flag on this most famous of circuits.
Verstappen's win for Red Bull at the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix in Italy brought him back into contention in the drivers' championship, with the McLarens of Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris now both within 22 points ahead. Hamilton's unexpected fourth place was also good news for Ferrari, as they head to a circuit where the seven-time world champion has three victories to his name. Teammate Leclerc would also love to make it two wins in a row at his home grand prix.
If you want to win in Monaco, you will have to nail qualifying. Five of the last six pole-sitters have gone on to win on the streets of Monte Carlo, and barring a major mistake in the race, Saturday's three-round shootout can determine the outcome.

Lights out for the start of the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix is set for 3.00 p.m. local time (CET) on Sunday, May 25. Here are the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix start times in Europe, India, South Africa and other worldwide locations:
So, that's how to watch the Monaco Grand Prix and all the race timings sorted. Now here's some more useful info about the upcoming Formula 1 race.
The Monaco Grand Prix first appeared on the Formula 1 calendar in 1950, and has been a fixture every year since 1955. Watching the drivers negotiate the narrow Mediterranean streets that form the Circuit de Monaco is one of the most iconic sights in motorsport, with the waterfront glamor nearly as enticing as the racing — possibly a good thing, seeing as overtaking is notoriously difficult.
On race day the drivers will complete 78 laps of the 2.08-mile (3.34km) circuit for a total race distance of 161.74 miles (260.29km).
The next race after the Monaco Grand Prix is the Spanish Grand Prix at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. It takes place on Sunday, June 1, making it the third F1 race in as many weekends.
Last year's Monaco Grand Prix was won by local boy Charles Leclerc, driving for Ferrari. McLaren's Oscar Piastri came second with Leclerc's then-teammate Carlos Sainz in third.
Lewis Hamilton (then driving for Mercedes) holds the record for the fastest ever lap at Monaco, completing the circuit in 1:12.909.
Many of the greatest drivers in the history of Formula One have won the Monaco Grand Prix over the years. Ayrton Senna holds the record with six victories, ahead of Graham Hill and Michael Schumacher with five.
Lewis Hamilton's three checkered flags make him the best of the current crop, though he hasn't won in Monte Carlo since 2019. Reigning world champion Max Verstappen won in 2021 and 2023.

Can Rivian Realistically Return to Growth in 2025?
Rivian's sales have slowed over the past year. The automaker's first major marketing campaign could boost demand. Rivian's R2 launch will be crucial to the company's potential success. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › When many investors turned to find the next Tesla, which is easier said than done, some turned to the young electric vehicle (EV) maker Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: RIVN). The company had proven capable of manufacturing high-quality vehicles, impressed critics and consumers alike, and inked a massive deal for delivery vans (EDVs) with Amazon -- life was good. Exiting 2023 you could argue Rivian had more momentum than any EV maker out there, but that has since dissipated and left investors wondering if the automaker can return to growth in 2025. The harsh truth is that the automotive industry is extremely competitive, and it takes an automaker with a full lineup to be truly successful. That hampers Rivian's ability to post extreme growth as the company only offers the R1T, R1S, and EDVs. But what's worse is that Rivian's only offerings are aging, and demand for them is waning -- it's been a noticeable trend. So the question facing investors is: Can the automaker return to growth in 2025 before the highly anticipated R2 launch in 2026? Investors in the know understand that Rivian has a small consumer base, but that it's a highly passionate base as well. There are Rivian adventure groups all across social media with consumers planning trips among other things. Rivian is attempting to tap into this passion with its first major marketing push, which the company could certainly use to help stoke demand for its vehicles. "This campaign is about celebrating the people who define what Rivian truly is," said Vice President of Marketing Denise Cherry on Rivian's blog. "Our vehicles are made to empower exploration and adventure, but it's the stories our owners create that give them real soul. For our first 360 brand campaign, we wanted to make sure our owners were the spotlight." Rivian has largely relied on word of mouth and organic growth to spread its brand awareness, but with demand waning over the past year, this marks the right time for the company to try to drive interest and demand for its R1 vehicles. Then it'll be time for the R1 vehicles to hand the baton to the R2 in 2026, which starts at roughly $45,000, or about half the price of Rivian's R1 vehicles. With 155,000 production units annually the R2 will be able to nearly double production of the R1S and R1T. If demand is there, expect deliveries to take off and accelerate through 2026. Investors also can't forget Rivian's big-time move to swap initial production of the R2 from its Georgia plant, which is under construction, to its Illinois plant thanks to an expansion of the factory. It's a move that not only fills production capacity at its original plant, but that saved the company roughly $2.25 billion. The harsh truth is that Rivian is unlikely to return to growth in 2025, unless its marketing campaign works miracles to drive immense demand. The automaker is essentially all-in on its R2, which boasts a much lower-cost bill of materials and improved tech, and will rely on the R2, R3, and R3X to take the company into its next growth stage. The near-term environment for EVs is pessimistic, especially with the current administration pulling support for the EV industry, and Rivian lacks any visible catalysts for the stock in 2025. But investors would be wise to take the long-term approach with Rivian. The company just achieved two consecutive quarters of gross profit and if it executes the production ramp-up of the R2 in 2026, it will be a much better year for investors. Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks? Then you'll want to hear this.

Gabe Craig named first-team All American
WACO, Texas (FOX 44) — The National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association, or NCBWA, announced Baylor senior right-handed pitcher Gabe Craig as a First Team All-American on Wednesday, marking the first time a Baylor Bear received the recognition since Kyle Hill in 2019. Craig is the 11th different Bear in program history to earn first-team praise for a total of 28 times. Alongside Hill, Craig is now one of only two First Team All-America relief pitchers in program history. Additionally, Luke Boyd (2021), Zane Carlson (2000) and Troy Montemayor (2017) are the only other relievers to have earned All-America status, regardless of team distinction, in Baylor history. Statistically one of the most dominant relievers in the country, Craig finished the 2025 season with a 3-0 record and earned 10 saves in 32 innings of work. He struck out 51 batters and walked just three, holding opponents to a .124 batting average. He led the nation with a microscopic 0.56 ERA, a 0.50 WHIP and a 17:1 strikeout-to-walk ratio. Craig also ranked second nationally in H/9 (3.66), third in BB/9 (0.84) and owned the fifth-best K/9 (14.34) among Division I relievers. The NCBWA previously named Craig a finalist for the Stopper of the Year Award in addition to being named one of five finalists for the 2025 College Baseball Foundation National Pitcher of the Year Award. He also picked up All-Big 12 First Team accolades and ABCA/Rawlings All-Central Region Second Team praise earlier this summer. This is Craig's second All-America honor in as many days.
