The Monaco Grand Prix is set to remain on the Formula 1 calendar amid uncertainty surrounding the historic race, RacingNews365.com understands.
The future of the race, which is one of the oldest alongside Silverstone and Monza, was in doubt as the 2022 running was the last held under the current deal.
Under those terms, the circuit retained the broadcasting rights and event signage and venue sponsor revenues. This led to a clash between F1 official partners Rolex and Monaco's own sponsor TAG Heuer, and is believed to now have been rectified.
Documents seen by RacingNews365.com indicate the Grand Prix will be held next year on the weekend of the 25th - 28th May.
