Is there any way i could check historically what mono, dual and triple colors win in grand prix scenarios? Is historical deck data availlable? Or maybe soneone already checked this?

Well the answer will be blue.

But no I haven't checked, and I wouldn't know how you'd possibly compile all the data.

This is a list of MTG Grand Prix winners. The decklists are not included, but I'd assume you could find them with some research.

Sorry I couldn't hyperlink them or anything. Hope this helps.

This shows what is currently winning and you can also look up historical results.

Modern and Legacy are on Blue and Red right now. Black and Green based decks have been great in recent history, but Wizards keeps printing blue cards that put you turns ahead. This combined with cards that control the blue player's draws is maddening for Green and Black players.

Really the big decks in standard are devotion to green, jeskai aggro and abzan midrange

For modern: Pod, burn/RDW and delver

For legacy: delver again, miracles and stoneblade

For vintage: MUD, fish and PW control

For EDH: Geist of saint traft, marath, will of the wild and Maelstrom wanderer

For block: jeskai, mardu and abzan

The recurring theme is that blue wins a lot and there are lots of decks running blue out there.
