Pre-Race Report
Championship standings
Fittipaldi leads the championship after Monaco.
Previous race
At Monaco, Lauda gave the new Ferrari 312T its first win, breaking a 20-year Ferrari drought at the principality. Fittipaldi came second, with Pace third. It was the last Monaco Grand Prix weekend for Graham Hill as any kind of participant — he had already announced his retirement as a driver after failing to qualify.
Entrants
Tony Brise makes his debut with Graham Hill’s Embassy Racing team. Mario Andretti is absent from the field, competing at the Indianapolis 500 in the United States.
Practice
Ronnie Peterson parks his car at the edge of the track rather than risk a puncture by pulling into the gravel trap — and is subsequently issued a parking ticket by circuit officials.
