Mmm this is just not quite right.
If anything they need to find a way to make quali the sort of highlight. Pay out a few WDC points for qualifying in Monaco. A Pirelli Paycheck for pole? Halve the race points payout and dish them out in quali?
I think they'll just leave it late so he can post fastest lap of the race. There has to be some positive social media content this weekend.
With how close he is following, no surprise.
I always enjoy watching cars at Monaco but there’s pretty much no overtaking in the FIA F3 and F2 races either. Really, there’s been no overtaking without massive tyre or fuel offsets since the 1960s. The last time someone outside the first 3 qualifiers won the event was 1985.ringo wrote: ↑25 May 2025, 16:50It was not the worse Monaco race.
At least with the 2 stop the drivers have to push.
When it was a one stop race everyone drives slowly and waits for the first driver to blink.
This was not good, but not as bad as the one stop.
This race needs to be done with F-1 drivers driving Formula 2 cars. These wide and heavy cars just cannot overtake here.
In the past the v8 cars could have overtaken and even the early narrow track hybrid cars.
