2024 Monaco Grand Prix - Monte Carlo, May 24 - 26

there is a feeling that Merc had a good race pace today, the first 10 laps were quite slow but then quite fast

This race has one interesting aspect, strategy, and we got none. Congrats Charles I guess, that's about the only redeeming aspect of this race.

one of the worst races on record... hardly any pitstops. no passing in the top 10... everyone driving slow to maintain a delta.... just overall poor display from F1

[DiogoBrand]

People somehow acting surprised that Monaco is boring
TBH, at least the 4 cars in front driving so close together with no margin for error made it somewhat exciting. Other than that, no less exciting than should be expected.

Charles got it done yersteday. What a lap

[cplchanb]

Max cannot overtake Russell. It is just not going to happen.

It look's like that. Cars too wide!!
He needs a soft to overtake.
It will happen but maybe when it's too late. Russel was saving his tyres.

he couldve played the team game by parking it on 2 turns to pull ham in... but once again his true colours showed as only himself.

You can see the difference in richness between the Piastri entourage and the Leclerc entourage.

They need special compounds for Monaco. I tyre should never last a whole race. Can't they make a soft that is a one lap qualifying tyre then a medium that only lasts 10 laps and a hard that only lasts 30?

Simple. They will drive even slower to save tyre life. There is no cure other than having cars half the size.

or just make a rule like qatar 2023... mandated pitstops.

Then design it so if they drop too far in temp it's like driving on ice

Well done Charles that was great.

If Max couldn't overtake George with faster car, how could Lewis have overtaken Max with a slower car, even with newer tyres, assuming Max couldn't pit? It was so predictable that no one can overtake here

They seemed to have good pace, Lewis managed to take 3 seconds off max in a few laps while Max was chasing down Russell

"Tears of the prince" like this is some Harry Potter shizzle.
