Behind the scenes at Monaco

The harbour was packed with the mega yachts of the world's rich and famous, the bars and restaurants of the Principality buzzed late into the night as fans flocked to the event and F1 was treated to one of the street circuit's best races - even though there was a general feeling of having been robbed because of the tyre swaps allowed after the red flag.
