2000 Monaco Grand Prix

The 2000 Monaco Grand Prix (formally the Grand Prix de Monaco 2000) was a Formula One motor race held on 4 June 2000 at the Circuit de Monaco in Monaco. It was the seventh round of the 2000 Formula One World Championship and the 58th Monaco Grand Prix. McLaren driver David Coulthard won the 78-lap race starting from third position. Rubens Barrichello finished second for the Ferrari team with Benetton's Giancarlo Fisichella third.

World Drivers' Championship leader Michael Schumacher driving for World Constructors' Championship leaders Ferrari started from pole position alongside Jordan driver Jarno Trulli after recording the quickest lap time in the previous day's one-hour qualifying session. The race was stopped due to race director Charlie Whiting accidentally hitting the red flag button instead of the pit exit open button and a subsequent collision between Jenson Button and Pedro de la Rosa that created a traffic jam. Michael Schumacher led into the first corner of the second start. After the second round of pit stops, Michael Schumacher's exhaust pipe failed, resulting in a left rear suspension failure and his retirement from the race. On lap 56, Coulthard, who was running in second place, took the lead. Coulthard led the remainder of the race to achieve his second win of the season and ninth in Formula One, with Barrichello a further 15.8 seconds back.

Coulthard's victory cut Michael Schumacher's lead in the World Drivers' Championship to 12 championship points. Häkkinen maintained third place, with Barrichello trailing by seven championship points. In the World Constructors' Championship, Ferrari's lead over McLaren was reduced to five championship points. Fisichella's third-place result reduced the gap to third-placed Williams to a single championship point, with ten races of the season remaining.
