Max Verstappen won the Monaco Grand Prix of 2021, making most of the opportunity after the pole sitter and Bottas, his closest challenger, retired from the race. Carlos Sainz and Lando Norris completed a very young podium at the principality.
Leclerc or sainz would be a real story, and a nice reset and refreshing moment for the championship before normal business resumes for the rest of the season.
The irony of Monaco - FP and quali are great fun to watch, the race fairly is. Other tracks, FP is dull, quali is great and the race is sometimes great. Monaco - you couldn't make it up.
Even as a non-Ferrari fan I'm stoked to see them up there. I prefer Carlos, but it would be a good story line.
Surprising, but this is good for the team as Mick will need to push a little bit more.NathanOlder wrote: ↑20 May 2021, 15:53Haas seemed to have swapped their drivers round this weekend. Mazepin faster in both sessions, and Mick just hit the wall
I predict Mick pushes it more and is more likely to bin it here... he's been racey with Williams and I think is feeling aggressive in the car. I think Mazepin at this point will want to make a point about not crashing.
For sure. I’m happy for the team, but not the management.Hoffman900 wrote: ↑20 May 2021, 15:58This, but it lets Ferrari headline it for two days which is good for them / the sport.
I'd say minimum fuel, maximum power, and nearly a 100% focus on qualifying pace. This is probably their best chance at a podium this season, if we don't have any races with crazy oddities.
Humdinger about what? The Monaco holiday?El Scorchio wrote: ↑20 May 2021, 15:13Some lovely trading of times between Hamilton and Verstappen there. Tomorrow could be a humdinger.
