The F2 race was pretty exciting at Monaco. The were quite a few battles, overtaking opportunities and accidents. There was action right up to the end of the race when the VSC introduced.

I felt so bad for Barnard, he had it in the bag right up to the time where Sullivan could pit, it was stolen from him, that must be gut wrenching!!

I also enjoyed the F3 inventing a new 8 wheel racing car, would be interesting to see them race :ROFL:
 
I disagree that there is no racing in Monaco.

F1 is a bit of a procession but that is because most of them (K-Mag Excluded this year) are very talented and experienced drivers.

F2 and F3 on the other hand had some very interesting racing with the cream of the crop taking advantage of any mistake that an opponent made.

I am fortune that I have the Time to watch all races during a weekend but if you need to choose what race to watch at monaco, watch the feeder classes.
 
BRING BACK REFUELLING!

Great race by Charles, Forza Ferrari.
Sainz one lucky Spaniard!
Time to revoke some licenses...FIA should not let clowns drive. K-Mag and the window licker.

Good to see that Prince Albert joined the celebration and did not hide behind the glass panes like previous years.
Relieved to see Princess Charlotte looking better and cracked a smile.

Yeah he pretty p1ssed. They way he slammed his fists and complaining after the race. That pit stop was so well (accidentally) timed.
 
You want boring?

I mistakenly decided to watch the Indy 500 which started hours late due to 'a wet track'.

After an hour of typically American build up with marching soldiers, national anthem, introducing all the drivers, and their wives, and their children, we finally got to race.

As with Monaco, red flag on lap one. This gives DSTV an opportunity to run their 'promos'. I do believe in a single hour we saw more promos than racing. I think I fell asleep after about 80 laps when they were on safety car no 12, or 20. More promos - the same promos, more cars going round and round in a circle.

If the DSTV ads weren't enough, the American commentators had their own ads to read, again and again.

Can you imagine F1 having full-screen adverts and promos every time there's a yellow flag, or every time there's not a yellow flag...

Either Americans have a very high boredom threshold, or a very low entertainment expectation.

Never again
 
American sport is just avertising. espesially American football. its 10 second of "action" then a 2 min ad break.
baseball is actually what people think Cricket is only more adds.
 
if perez furks up another race what are the chances red bull grab sainz and offers him a contract and fire perez mid season
Imho red bull should push Yuki or Liam into Perez's seat as soon as Perez is mathematically unable to reach 2nd in the drivers championship or if they're overtaken in the constructors. It would make sense for Liam for the rest of the season since it wouldn't disrupt RBCash at all and allow an evaluation for 2025/6. I don't think Sainz at RB would be a win unless their stable suddenly lost Max or Yuki. Sainz is a great driver but I think he needs to join a team where he's #1 - just my feeling.

None of the big teams want Sainz he is just another cry baby non team player like Alonso, just with much less talent. He will sign for Williams.
 
karkest race of the year

but atleast charles put in an excellent quali and took the win
I never renewed my F1 subscription this year.
Been very happy with the YouTube highlights that gets posted a few hours later.
It's 5 to 10 minutes per video clip of FP1, FP2, FP3, Q and Race
It's all you need this year coz most of the races sound boring for at least an hour per race.
Loving the Highlights only, might never subscribe to F1 again while YouTube keeps posting these free videos
 
People using F1tv, was the race fine? Started with the F1tv stream on my iptv but the sound was 1min behind the picture so just watched the Sky stream. But F1tv quality is normally a bit better. Don't know if the problem was with F1tv or my iptv.

F1tv was fine. Perhaps stop using pirated iptv.
