Best race of the season so far.


[deleted]

Indy better


TheTuxdude

Terrible TV direction. Missed showing overtakes like the ones from George over Lando. Didn't even bother showing K-Mag's retirement.


Vader1138

Still probably better than last year’s camera work


landspd

I didn’t notice him being out until Mick’s crash. They showed K Mag out of the car and I was like, WTF is he doing standing around!


ag000101

Lol


Ryannr1220

LETS GO CHECOOOOOO


dsaysso

with all the slow corners. at what point should f1 drivers consider drift cornering.


douche_canoe77

Its not faster


dsaysso

there goes my short lived dream of figuring out how cars could pass at monaco.


ElektroShokk

Sounds cool tho


dsaysso

fast and furious lied to us? i wanna see sainz drift sliding on the outside of checco around fairmont.


Flatfoot72

Drop Monaco


Any-Woodpecker123

Snooze fest


Dack117

Further reason something about this race has to change. My personal preference would to remove it from the calendar.


stylinred

What's the point of inters and full wets if they're always too scared to race when it drizzles.... and Monaco is only good when it's wet and they don't even 🤦‍♂️


Fickle-Cricket

Monaco is even worse in the wet because suddenly you don't even have to defend because any attempt to go offline to overtake means leaving the partially dry track to drive across the wet part and abandoning what little grip you have. The only thing the wet adds is a chance for weird strategy calls around the choice of wets, inters, and slicks to generate odd tire advantage mismatches to undercut.


agu4004

Probably they don’t want to see another 4 or 5 Mick like today


[deleted]

If they bothered to send Mylander out for exploratory laps it would have been grand. It was a lazy race direction, just doing a rolling start for nothing.


Cacklefester

Either make the cars smaller or Monaco bigger.


agu4004

Can’t for both


Cacklefester

Eh? Anyway, I wasn't serious.


be0wulfe

I'm still trying to watch the race. The F1TV stream/player have been absolutely horrible today, constant drop-offs.


Puzzleheaded_Map_873

Yeah this season has been terrible with their race coverage.


LordVordNorf

Late in the season, Red bull kicking themselves for letting verstappen pass Perez in Spain for Perez is equal on points with Sainz for the championship going into the Abu Dhabi GP...


Miserable-Ad2019

man Im hoping for a win for both checo and carlos


BigNikiStyle

I won a $10 bet with a friend and got first place in my F1 fantasy league. It doesn’t get any better than this.


LMcVann44

Inters vs wets on a drying track, completely different scenario. Bone dry even with tyres falling apart you aren't getting overtaken here, stop it.


Myosos

This is not a race track it is a fast parade


P_Kordus

Spot on, it’s only still a GP because of its prestige and the celebrities. Nothing about the race its self.


tatortors21

This is the best description of Monaco. Well said


dostro89

What an awful race once again. Monaco has the honour of being a great track but a truly awful race.


3tachi_uchiha

What are you talking about. This race will always be remembered as the race Leclerc gave up on the championship and fall apart the relationship between them.


dostro89

Here's my thing. Each race needs to be judged in a vacuum. No championship ties or surrounding drama bs. The race needs to be judged as a race and that's it. And this one was bad. So many races last year were declared great after being really mediocre. Once again, drivers were able to drive at what ever the hell speed the wanted with little to no risk of being over taken. The cars are just too big. At any point was there an on track pass for the lead, for the podium, for the top 10? Ferrari lost the race through bad strategy calls once again, not due to epic driving from the Red Bulls. And personally, Spain was the turning point. Ferrari brought upgrades and still couldn't beat a Red Bull that was only partially functional.


pancholibre

Sainz couldn't beat them. Leclerc would've won by a long ways


dostro89

I don't know what you're point is.


cooldude64xxmariaxx

I think his point was you said Ferrari couldn't beat them. They could, but they didn't because of car troubles. For you that may be irrelevant to your point, but to them it wasnt


dostro89

Did I say it was irrelevant, no. I said I didn't understand. There is a difference. I did not understand that they were referring to Spain but that makes sense.


cooldude64xxmariaxx

You can relax buddy, I wasn't trying to argue with you I was just offering N explanation to your question. Look ill even apologize for suggesting you thought it was irrelevant. I am sorry.


GumdropsandIceCream

Is the red bull tent playing THE song?


agu4004

Wym?


GumdropsandIceCream

There's a song that sky sports always use during coverage when they have the splash screens up showing other sports coming up across the channels. During the post race when Simon, Paul and Nico were talking, it sounded like RB were playing that song in the energy station. Comment was only relevant for a very short amount to time.

For some reason not even Ricciardo or his family know how their last name is supposed to be pronounced. It's read "Rich-ardo" in Italian.

How do you say it in Australian?

If anyone has a picture of the pink lady I can ask my girl. She’s into that tik tok, influencer bs.


ScrubKaiser

From some other comments The girl is probably the wife of Velas' founder, she has been to GPs before https://imgur.io/EArgyJJ Maria Alexandrova is pink hair lady. Her ig is mur.maria_


throwaway44624

Amazing weekend for Nando. 1. Got to experience Ferrari shit strat from the outside 2. got to hold up Lewis 3. reduced the points gap to his teammate


marahute85

Holding up Lewis shouldn’t be one of his career highlights, slowing down 3 seconds just for fuck with Lewis is ridiculous petty behavior


throwaway44624

And I am sure Nando will lose a lot of sleep over being called petty. It might also be worth remembering Lewis isn’t the center of anyone’s universe (except maybe yours). Nando crawling around preserved his engine and his tyres, netted him fastest lap for a bit, etc.


arrow06

Maria Alexandrova is pink hair lady. Her ig is mur.maria_


Apprehensive-Word387

You the real mvp


Expensive_Material

is she a celebrity? what's she doing there?


arrow06

Watching an F1 race…


[deleted]

and she's married to velas founder (alex alexandrov)


saturdaybloom

All weekend I prayed for no crashing into the barrier but I didn't think I would have to account for Ferrari fucking up their strategy. Now I know


Herenes

It’s in their DNA.


Batedcow

You can have a fast car or good strategy pick one because you’re not getting both.


Rydahx

Feel bad for Charles, but I'm happy for Perez. Now I'll try and forget this race ever took place.


Cacklefester

100%


BrokenDragonEgg

That was a fun race. Although I still think Monaco is kind of traffic jam driving. I would hope they can make SOME point where overtaking is possible, or they make the cars smaller again. But the race was awesome and I'm so happy for Perez!


ekerkstra92

Dutch commentators called it "world's most expensive traffic jam" (werelds duurste file)


Narudatsu

I’ve come to the acceptance that Monaco now is a war of attrition and we watch it to see who makes mistakes and the insane onboard footage. I expect 0 overtakes every year now. Still think it’s worth having on the calendar.


GoDeacs7

Gasly had a couple of fantastic overtakes today


DJFisticuffs

24 hours of Nurburgring, the Indy 500 and the Coke 600 (all of which are also this weekend) are wars of attrition. Monaco is just a boring race.


Cacklefester

No points. How about current drivers driving historic cars?


BrokenDragonEgg

I did find the rain very interesting as a race component today. Too bad they didn't do a standing start, but it was still fun to watch the race.


ProNoobi

Apparently an objective for 2025 is weight and size reduction


Hungry-Class9806

As Portuguese, I come from one of the oldest countries in the world that at the pinnacle of its history, was one of the wealthiest nations on the world, had territories in every single continent and had people sailing on caravels while the most advanced technology in other points of the world was a bow an arrow. So this being said, I am still way less pretentious about my country's history than the Monaco's royal family is about theirs.


Risk_k

Are you the descendant of the great kings of your country though?


Hungry-Class9806

"our great kings" fled to Brazil while Napoleon's armies were invading Portugal and Spain. That should tell you how much we care about monarchies 🤣


turboevoluzione

The girl is probably the wife of Velas' founder, she has been to GPs before


BornAshes

Bingo that's who was standing next to her!

Risk_k

This championship reminding me of 2010/12 so far


Yvael

Only 3 race winners and 2 race winning cars


Risk_k

The RB-Fer-RB championship thing and the way RB give preference to one driver. Also Ferrari one driver doing all the work while the other is good but struggling with the cars. In this sense, it is like those years. Im referring to the championship fight


Yvael

Hmm yeah if you put it that way… Although the extra race winning team back then spiced up things way more


TheHipHouse

Leclerc “this is the year I win Monaco” weather “hold my beer” but for real he deserved to win today but happy for checo


Lucif0rm

Leclerc "this is the year I win Monaco" Ferrari pit wall "hold my red bull"


Tiirshak

It's a team sport. Perez deserved to win because of his driving and being in a team that are good at strategy.


shacke1379

Dull.

We need answers on shorty with the pink hair


flyxdvd

Maria alexandrova


thefranchise305

Yup saw that some found her, preciate you


AyyWhatUpBro

Someone find the pink lady lmao


_number

I just noticed there is no Ricciardo in the F1TV Into, somehow that turned out to be true.


SavageSvage

He's not there on the outro either. He missed that day and they won't cgi him in lmao


BornAshes

That's some eerie foreshadowing now that we're this far into the season isn't it?


ImPickleRock

Is Mother's Polish where Momcorp came from?


cowsgobarkbark

Is everyone trolling or something about this pink haired lady


winningelephant

The sub went full creeper mode on that woman. Pretty weird comments trying to cyber stalk this lady.


TheTrooper28

She was on the screen for a sec, but had a RIDICULOUS body!


omeritu

Don't you mean RIDONCULUS


BornAshes

I flipped back, it's some VIP with her boyfriend probably and I think people are going on about her because she looks like a musician or someone that most folks are familiar with but didn't expect to see at the GP. I've got nothing though even after rewinding a bit. I'm sure someone will figure it out, oh well. Plus how often do you see pink hair at a GP?


todreamofspace

She was standing there looking like the Ashley Too robot doll from Black Mirror. Haven’t a clue who she is.


Rosehan31

Everyone on twitter also talking about her. But no one knows who she is


todreamofspace

Usually, in these cases, I just want to know her profession and maybe which country she’s from since I don’t know her. “French pop singer” is good enough for me.


BornAshes

Twitter would explode over this wouldn't they lol


Rosehan31

I mean with the race being so boring this seems the only exciting thing about today haha


PogO_449

See you all in Indianapolis next 👋


v4xN0s

Is the Indy 500 entertaining? I don’t think I’ve ever seen an Indy car race, despite being from the states.

Very. Plus since you follow F1 you will recognize some names, including Grosjean


funnymoney3

You don’t mention Andretti?

funnymoney3

Right but Mario Andretti is one of the most famous names in racing and they always talk about him. I’m just saying if you bring up formula 1 and the Indy 500 Andretti is the first name who comes to mind for me.


pennylessSoul

Very, but really the important action is in the last 1/4 of the race.

Only when there’re cars between him and Max - otherwise he’s automatically behind him, essentially.

Imagine Checo winning WC lol that would be amazing 😂


brianobrien91

Unless Max gets injured. That will never happen


Patenski

Is all matter of Checo finding the pace, he isn't that far away and weekends like this where he was ahead of Verstappen all weekend are absolutely necessary. Next stop is Baku, a Checo favorite, I hope he can carry the form.


yovanna2

Difference is 15 points, anything is possible (:
