I am fairly sure this is the worst race I have ever seen. Might as well have called it 80 formation laps. Jesus.
I think I counted like 5 overtakes that did not involve a crashed car. Ridiculous really. Last week at least there was some hope that one could pull a move. No such hope here
5 is pretty high for Monaco. I’m sure there have been years with zero on track overtakes before.
Have they?? I can’t remember any year with 0. Till lap 50, I was thinking that we may have zero today.
2021 apparently had zero on track overtakes
Oh yeah. I completely forgot about that. I guess that the strategic battle between overcutting and undercutting kept me engrossed enough. Also helped by the fact that verstappen was not driving nearly as slowly as people today.
First race I’ve ever heard my mum call “boring”
Oh my god that was dangerous from Ocon, Gasly is absolutely right to be pissed.
Ocon literally did what he did to Perez back at Force India - overtake stupidly and leave no room for his teammate.
Leclerc says he’ll bring the car home, proceeds to drive directly to his apartment parking garage.
The video editor’s gonna have a hard time extending the race highlights over a minute
Haha the F1TV commentary just mentioned the exact same thing.
They’re just gonna do 5 mins of lap 1 replays lol
Haas and Alpines taking each other out. Typical Sunday.
Oh look an overtake…I have seen enough…Bottas DOTD
Tsunoda and Albon in 8th and 9th just got lapped by Russell and Verstappen in 5th and 6th…
And now Zhou and Sargeant have been lapped twice, I have not seen this in a long time.
First points for Williams, great job Albono.
Name a better love story than Ocon and penalties
Magnussen and penalties. Surprised he didn’t wind up with a race ban after today.
Very happy for Charles!
But something needs to happen to this race. As it is now it is a Saturday race with qualifying, the race on Sunday is negligible, boring even.
They need to spray the track with water at a random time to give us wet racing 🤪
Well, this is an old school track so how about we honor the old school ‘adventures’ that made racing so dangerous and exciting?
- The water spraying at unknown intervals as you mentioned
- Force all the drivers to drink a pint of whiskey and smoke a cigar before they are allowed to enter their cars
- Make the guardrails out of bails of hay
- Make sure that the runoff areas are running off into the harbour
- Mandatory faulty wheel nut, you just do not know which of the four it will be
- Helmets made from leather
- No visors allowed, just a ray-ban clubmasters
Perhaps if we introduce these rules the race will become more entertaining?
