Summary of the race:
The Monte Carlo street circuit has always been a challenge for Formula 1 drivers. For 37 years, no Brazilian had won there. Ayrton Senna came close in 1984 but wanted to celebrate a victory. In 1987, Senna faced more challenges. He retired from two out of three races (Brazil and Belgium) and finished second in San Marino. Lotus had a new, untested active suspension system that could help on Monaco's bumpy track, but it shook the team's confidence. During qualifying, Senna secured second on the grid. Nigel Mansell took pole position, followed by Nelson Piquet and Alain Prost. Michele Alboreto and Eddie Cheever were in the third row. A controversy arose as FISA allowed 26 cars to race, potentially causing a traffic jam in the narrow streets. Usually, the six slowest cars in qualifying didn't race, with only 20 cars competing. But to appease sponsors, all 26 cars started that day. Notably, the front row was a repeat of the previous race where Senna and Mansell had crashed in Belgium. Senna assured the press it wouldn't be a problem, despite the risks. On race day, Mansell kept the lead initially, but on lap 29, his turbocharger failed, forcing him to retire. Senna then took the lead and dominated the race, eventually finishing 33 seconds ahead of Nelson Piquet. Michele Alboreto finished third. Senna's victory marked the first time a Brazilian had won at Monaco, cementing his status as one of Brazil's greatest sports figures. After the checkered flag, Senna relaxed by thanking each team mechanic over the Lotus radio. He explained, "When I couldn't keep up with Mansell, I saved my tires and brakes for the second half. After Mansell retired, I focused on avoiding backmarkers and maintaining concentration." During the celebration, Senna joyfully showered Prince Rainier of Monaco with champagne. Senna would go on to win at Monaco five more times in his career. Afterward, he was invited by the Prince to the Royal Family dinner. This win marked Senna's fifth in Formula One and the first by a car using active suspension. The standings were Prost with 18 points, Senna 15, Johansson 13, Piquet 12, and Mansell 10.
