Monaco is certainly one of the most extravagant travel destinations in the entire world, thanks to its glitz and glam. Interestingly, that isn’t where the F1 drivers draw the line, as many including Max Verstappen, Lewis Hamilton, and Nico Rosberg, own residential apartments.
The list also includes Charles Leclerc but let’s keep him out of this, considering Monaco is his home country. Amidst the ever-rising love for the attractive Monte Carlo, the Monegasques are all set to welcome yet another Formula 1 driver. This time, it’s the McLaren driver, Lando Norris.

Lando Norris reveals his latest real estate investment
Norris took to social media to reveal that he bought a house in Monaco. The place is still under construction with interior works going in full swing. Furthermore, the Briton also clarified this Monaco home wouldn’t be his forever home, as he would only reside here when he is not needed on the track or at the McLaren factory.
Say hello to my new home! The place isn't finished yet but I'll be living here in Monaco when I'm not in the factory or at the track next year.
I get the keys at the end of next month so will hopefully be moving in soon. Really excited for this next chapter! pic.twitter.com/rsYCcbXXls

Apart from the 4 drivers, many others including Daniil Kvyat, David Coulthard, Daniel Ricciardo, Mika Hakkinen, Felipe Massa, and Lucas di Grassi, also possess their own respective apartments in the lavish country, which runs along the Mediterranean Sea.
Overall, Norris’ recent purchase is proof that Monaco is still very much Formula 1 drivers’ most preferable residential spot apart from the UK and the US. Are more such drivers set to lock their eyes on this country? Well, we’ll know in time.
