The 2012 Monaco Grand Prix (formally the Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco 2012)[1] was a Formula One motor race that took place in the principality of Monaco on 27 May 2012.[3] It was the sixth round of the 2012 season, and the seventieth running of the Monaco Grand Prix. The race was supported by the GP2, GP3 and Formula Renault 3.5 series.[4][5][6] Mark Webber's victory created a new record for Formula One in that there had never been six different winners of the opening six Grands Prix of the season before.[7][8][9] Mercedes' Nico Rosberg came in second place, his second podium in the 2012 season, and Ferrari's Fernando Alonso third and taking the Formula One championship lead by three points over Vettel and Webber.[10]
