Monaco. It is the jewel in the crown, so to speak, of many racing series. All the celebrities turn up in their masses with the latest designer suits and dresses and park their luxury yachts in the harbour. In the days leading up to the race, both the celebrities and the teams will have a busy shedule with many parties and formal events to attend. Come race day though, the drivers will be doing their job and the celebrities will be sat on the decks of their yachts, watching the racing and sipping champagne. Because of this, it is almost a tradition for a few of the teams to put on a modified or special edition livery at Monaco, even if it is just a slight change to one of the colours. The Red Bull team often have the theme of the latest Cannes movie release, famously once putting a $250'000 diamond on the nose of the car...only for it to crash on the first lap and the diamond never to be seen again (true story, really).
See if you can see what's changed in GPM for the Monaco weekend:
