The 1958 Monaco Grand Prix was a Formula One motor race held on 18 May 1958 at Monaco. It was race 2 of 11 in the 1958 Formula One season.
The race was won by French driver Maurice Trintignant in the second and final Grand Prix victory of his long career. The win was the second consecutive victory for the privateer Rob Walker Racing Team. The team gambled on not needing a pit stop for new tyres, which the competitors did not realise in time to chase down the underpowered Cooper with its worn tyres.
