The Triple Crown of Motorsport is an unofficial motorsport achievement of victory in three of the most prestigious races in the world of motorsport. The three races are the Monaco Grand Prix (from Formula One), the Indianapolis 500(from IndyCar) and the 24 Hours of Le Mans (from endurance racing). Only one driver, Graham Hill has completed the feat.
An alternative definition is to include the Formula One World Championship instead of the Monaco GP; in which case, Graham Hill is still the only driver to have the Triple Crown.
