Race Summary

Graham Hill dominated the season-opening Monaco Grand Prix to secure a commanding BRM one-two finish with teammate Richie Ginther. The 1962 World Champion controlled the race from the front, demonstrating the mastery of the principality's demanding streets that would define his career. Hill's victory established him as an early championship favorite and showcased BRM's competitiveness with their revised P261 chassis.

Peter Arundell claimed third place for Lotus-Climax, providing some consolation for the team after defending champion Jim Clark retired with mechanical issues. The race highlighted the intense competition expected throughout the 1964 season, with multiple teams capable of winning. Hill's Monaco triumph would prove crucial in the championship battle that went down to the final race, though ultimately he would fall just one point short of retaining his title.
