Revision as of 19:32, 10 September 2017
The 1975 Monaco Grand Prix, otherwise known as the XXXIII Grand Prix Automobile de Monaco, was the fifth round of the 1975 FIA Formula One World Championship, staged at the Circuit de Monaco on the 11th May.[1] The race, staged just a fortnight after the miserable events of the Spanish Grand Prix, would see Niki Lauda dominate until the closing stages.[1]
Lauda's domination would begin in qualifying, with the Austrian claiming pole by over six tenths of a second from the Shadow of Tom Pryce.[1] Elsewhere, Championship leader Emerson Fittipaldi claimed ninth ahead of Carlos Reutemann, while eight of the twenty-six entrants failed to qualify.[1]
A rain swept race morning meant it was a wet start to the race when the start's flag dropped, with Lauda immediately sprinting away from the grid to lead.[1] Pryce made a dreadful start and slipped out of the top five, although his teammate Jean-Pierre Jarier fared little better when he buried the second Shadow into the barriers at the chicane.[1]
With Ronnie Peterson and Pryce having to weave their way around Jarier's ruined car, Lauda's advantage grew to a comfortable one before the end of the opening lap.[1] The race soon settled into a steady rhythm, with Lauda calmly pulling clear from Pryce and Peterson.[1] Indeed, the only major change to the order in the opening stages came when Mario Andretti retired with a mechanical issue on the Parnelli.[1]
A spin for Pryce on lap 19 finally brought the monotony to an end, a pirouette that allowed Peterson, Fittipaldi and Jody Scheckter through, and signalled that the track was drying.[1] A few laps later and the field were all on dry tyres, with Lauda briefly losing the lead to Peterson before the Swede himself stopped.[1]
Peterson's late stop meant he dropped from second to fifth after the stops, although a puncture for Scheckter promoted the Swede back into the top four.[1] Lauda, meanwhile, continued to hold a fair advantage, although as the laps ticked away it became clear that the Austrian was having to battle a major issue.[1]
Fittipaldi was soon closing in on the Ferrari, and as the pair started the 75th lap, the Brazilian was just 2.5 seconds behind.[1] However, before the McLaren could launch an attack, the two hour limit expired, bringing the race to an end three laps before it should have done.[1]
Lauda was duly declared as the winner from Fittipaldi, while Pace completed the podium after a quiet afternoon.[1] Peterson dragged the five year old Lotus to fourth, while Patrick Depailler elbowed his way past Jochen Mass on the penultimate tour to claim fifth.[1]
Background
There was only one major change to the standings after the horrific afternoon in Spain, with Jochen Mass leaping into the top four with his half-win. Emerson Fittipaldi continued to lead by three points from Carlos Pace, who was joined on the tally of twelve by teammate Carlos Reutemann. Jody Scheckter was a half point behind Mass in fifth, as four drivers added their names to the scorers list in Spain.
If the Spanish Grand Prix had done anything positive it was to close up the fight in the International Cup for Manufacturers, for Brabham-Ford Cosworth and McLaren-Ford Cosworth could not be closer. Indeed, just half a point seperated the pair after the first European race of the season, before an eight and a half point gap opened to third placed Tyrrell-Ford Cosworth. Ferrari were in fourth ahead of Hesketh-Ford Cosworth, while Lotus-Ford Cosworth were finally on the board in sixth, ahead of Shadow-Ford Cosworth and March-Ford Cosworth.

Standings
With the halfway point in the season fast approaching, it was still Emerson Fittipaldi who led the way in the Drivers' Championship, pulling five points clear of the rest of the field. Carlos Pace remained his closest challenger in second, while victory for Niki Lauda had moved the Austrian to third, seven points back. Carlos Reutemann slipped to fourth, while Jochen Mass was the first of those with half a point in fifth.
It was a 1.5 point lead for McLaren-Ford Cosworth after the opening five rounds of the International Cup for Manufacturers, the British effort leading their compatriots Brabham-Ford Cosworth with two wins apiece. Ferrari moved into a solid third place thanks to Lauda's win, while Tyrrell-Ford Cosworth held their own in fourth. Hesketh-Ford Cosworth remained a point ahead of the fallen Champions Lotus-Ford Cosworth, with Shadow-Ford Cosworth and March-Ford Cosworth the only other scorers.
