Like most drivers on the Formula One grid, Honda Racing’s Jenson Button is a resident of Monaco, where the fifth round of the 2007 championship will take place this coming weekend. Now, as he looks ahead to the coming event, the young Brit talks about what makes Monaco so special and what you need to have a good race around the legendary street circuit.

“Monaco is the most famous race of all, where all the glitz and glamour of Formula One is on display, and there is no question that it is a very special place over the race weekend.
