Monza has never been an overtaking temple, last years needed incidents to spice it up really.
This year, I'm not too disappointed - the cars being out of position gave quite some overtakes, a brilliant passfest by Sainz. Exciting to see a rookie driver fighting for 10th place aside from that; even if there's no overtakes, the train there does make it tense - any mistake will be punished.

Would spice up the end nicely, especially since the Top 7 are already accounted for.

This has to be the nail in the coffin for Binotto. Another brainless strategy.
What is his back story? How did he end up at the helm?

'exciting races' is an arbitrary metric that should be irrelevant to the sport; unfortunately FIA and LibertyTM take it quite seriously.
All I’m saying as a big f1 fan, this is boring to watch. What makes the majority of the best races exciting is multiple safety cars to give a mix of strategies/tyres and wet weather also which provides challenging and variable conditions

Well this is exciting, you could have a track party in the gaps between the top drivers, ridiculously regimental racing.

What is it with the FIA this year, waiting 728 years to send out an obvious safety car.

Why such as massive delay for the safety car call? Ridiculous FIA...

Why bring Max into this at all?
What does it matter for him anyway - he would easily have won without the safety car. If anything, this gives Charles another chance where otherwise he had none.

So can verstappen survive SC restart, he's slow AF on straights. Unless he makes it perfect he's easy meat.

Not when they delay the SC and Max gets yet another very handy free stop.

I cannot believe how bad race control is. Just call for the SC straightaway.
