What channel is Formula 1 on today? TV schedule, start time for 2023 Monaco Grand Prix

Monaco.

Really, not much else needs to be said about Formula 1’s flagship race, just as not much can be said about the 2023 Formula 1 season thus far.

The season has been short on drama, excitement and unpredictability. The podium combinations say as much: of five races this year, Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez have appeared on the podium four times. A Red Bull driver has taken the top step on the podium in all five races.

Further, there have been just three different combinations on the podium: Perez, Verstappen and Fernando Alonso (three times); Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton and Alonso; and Perez, Verstappen and Charles Leclerc. That’s emblematic of F1’s lack of parity, which isn’t exactly a new thing.
