The Formula One circuit is renowned for attracting some of the world's top celebrities and the Monaco stage of the race is usually the pinnacle.
This year's event was no exception, with a wide array of famous faces from around the globe descending on the principality to enjoy the annual race through the streets of Monaco.
Among the stars at this year's event were an eclectic mix, from Star Wars creator George Lucas to five-time Olympic gold medallist and current BBC athletics pundit Michael Johnson, as well as Prince Michael of Kent and singer Sir Cliff Richard.
Others enjoying the racing were DJ Chris Evans, singer James Blunt and former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, according to the BBC.
The celebrities saw Briton Jenson Button win his fifth race in six outings this season, followed home by teammate Rubens Barrichello.
However, while most celebrities in Monaco have plenty of money to buy themselves a new car, perhaps some should consider buying a used car after what happened to Olympic sprint sensation Usain Bolt recently.
Triple Olympic champion Bolt crashed his car on a wet road earlier this month, although he and his passengers walked away unscathed from the incident.
