Monaco Grand Prix

[BoroFur]

Monaco is stepped in history and f1 glory.

Yes it's an anachronism, twisty and too small for a modern f1 car. But it is intense for the drivers, apart from St devote and the tunnel/new chicane there are zero run offs. They are on the very edge of their limits all the time. As poor Charles found put yesterday you're always a mm away from disaster.
I agree with @zorro_mfc . It's much better than a sanitised , anodyne Herman Tilke "track". Oh no, I've over cooked it. Never mind I'll just drive on this brightly painted tarmac and just cracked on."

Anyone who's ever seen any Abu Dhabi grand prix can't complain about another race being boring.

I think you can complain about both races being boring. Two races only on the calendar because of money.

Given the lack of run off on this track, our friend Mazepin seems to have found the new chicane one pretty consistently

Monaco always had that jeopardy element as any one crash at any time.

 

[Jedi boro]

That’s bottas fked

 

[BoroFur]

Oh dear Bottas

 

[Jedi boro]

Wow

 

[Jedi boro]

Wtf cutting away from that action

 

[SmallTown]

Bottas out and Hamilton stuck behind a red bull team. And Vettel ahead of them both.

That's as bad a couple of laps as Mercedes have had!

 

[BoroFur]

Lando going great again

 

[Jedi boro]

Ouch that gotta hurt llando lapping him

 

[Jedi boro]

[Jedi boro]

[SmallTown]

Perez Norris battle should be interesting

Or not!

As dull as that grand prix was it's brought the whole season to life. Excellent for the sport

 

[Jedi boro]

Gotta feel for Charles as well

 

[Blf]

Well the most exciting part of the race was watching a wheel nut strip the threads on an axle

 

[Teesside_Steel]

Modern day F1 has completely outgrown Monaco

 

[Jedi boro]

Maybe so but it’s still the ONE they all want to win.

 

[BoroFur]

Yes well done Max. Managed everything perfectly and never under any serious challenge

 

[RedAsABeetroot]

Nice to see Norris on the podium and also 3 different teams but a dreadful watch.

You need to appreciate Monaco for what it is.
Yes overtaking is difficult there but not impossible if you've got the balls.
Nowhere else on the calendar with possibly the exception of Baku has such a high risk factor at every corner on every lap.
