Put everyone in smaller cars just for this race. Formula E had some great overtaking the other week.

Nice top 3 though and championships about even again.

But hot damn, Monaco sucks after qualifying.

ooof rough day for Ham and merc but that podium is solid. Should make the rest of the year , or at least the next few races more interesting.

I really dislike the aspect of celebrity shots, involving them in official proceedings and I totally did not miss those last year.

ZzzzzzZzzzZzz...
Highlights were a grumpy Lewis and a botched pit stop. No safety car. Not even a VSC! Not a single driver really risked a close follow even. At least Norris podium is nice?
2/10, would fall asleep at my desk again.
12.9, that's fast lol.
The only vague comfort for Mercedes today is that there's seemingly nothing wrong with the car itself. Actually I wouldn't take anything away from Monaco, ever, except I do want to know how the hell Ferrari managed this. Leclerc surely could have won, but, well, it's his own error.

Crap race, great procession of cars.
Most exciting part was the race director cutting away from Vettels overtake...twice

Not just the worst race at Monaco I've ever seen but one of the very worst and most boring Grand Prix I've ever seen.

Even the race director cut away from the only vague bit of action and the shots of Serena Williams learning how to wave a flag just added to the embarrassment for what was an absolute shit show of a race.

Serious consideration needs to be given to removing Monaco from the race calendar.

I hereby request a double interview with Yuki Tsunoda & Serena Williams.

Edit: Gosh, it's always bad in Monaco with the glorification of wealth but this year seems especially bad. These ladies in white opening the trophy suitcase, what the fuck is this :D

Aston Martin the team of the day for me. Absolute maximum from the race they could have got I reckon.

God I hate this race though.

If they can't find a way to make the track raceable, they need to abandon it. Sorry.

Kudos to anyone who watched the entirety of the race. I went and did laundry.

Mónaco is just so pretentious. The Royal podium, the anthems, the celebrities and to make matters worse the awful racing. Fuck this place.

When the only hope you have of making a race even vaguly entertaining is the occurance of a crash, and everyone is rolling around seconds off the pace, making that less likely, and even if it does occur, after the rush of pitstops it all settles back to tedium, it's probably worth taking a very real look at whether it's worth keeping on the calendar. They need to at the very least figure out a way to reprofile some corners and hope that achieves something.
