Monaco was not the most exciting grand prix despite Lando Norris<\/a> closing the gap on his McLaren<\/a> team-mate and Formula 1 championship leader Oscar Piastri<\/a>, after his maiden victory in the Principality.<\/p>\n

McLaren also extended its already massive lead in the constructors\u2019 standings and no-one looked happier on the podium than the organisation\u2019s CEO Zak Brown.<\/p>\n

But away from the track, Monaco was a huge weekend, with more people, more boats and more going on than for many years. It reflected F1\u2019s cultural and financial boomtime. And we are focussing on that in this episode.<\/p>\n

F1 is attracting a lot of new sponsors, but what is bringing the big money into the series? We hear from the largest of them, LVMH, who have come in with a 10 year $1bn deal, using its multiple brands like Louis Vuitton, Moet Hennessy and TAG Heuer, which was the title sponsor of the Monaco GP, the first time that the race has ever had a title sponsor. We also hear from the new Liberty Media CEO Derek Chang on his vision for how F1 grows from here.<\/p>\n
