What time does the Monaco GP finish?

The Monaco GP was scheduled to finish at approximately 15:00 UTC — about two hours after the 13:00 UTC start. F1 races run to the lesser of 305 km or two hours of racing, so most last around 1h45–2h of green-flag running; a red flag or repeated safety cars can push the finish later, and the FIA caps total race time at three hours. In the UK and Ireland that is roughly 4:00 PM BST, and on the US East Coast about 11:00 AM EDT. Treat it as a planning estimate — take the exact start time above and add roughly two hours.

Qualifying converts the same way — set your alarm for 3:00 PM BST in the UK:
