Thoughts On Monaco As An Overall Race Track?
Thoughts on monaco as an overall race track?
I usually don't like street circuits but as an overall race track, I do think Monaco is pretty good. I like how challenging the circuit is with the elevation changes and the tight hairpin turn, and also it's just nice to look at.
The race this year was boring because the pit stops under the red flag meant a lull in strategy and movement in the top 10 spots. The size of the cars and the narrowness of the track doesn't help either since it's now nearly impossible to overtake without risking contact.
But I don't think this makes the circuit itself bad. Qualifying was great, other motorsports (and formula feeder series) have raced with more entertaining results, and even if it's notoriously hard to overtake there's usually better strategy to make up for it.
I think smaller/narrower cars would definitely make the race more competitive, but I don't see that happening in the near future. A change in layout to make it possible to overtake more in certain turns would be helpful too, but I'm no track designer though so I've got no clue if that's actually possible.
If I'm super honest, I would trade Monaco for the return of tracks like Sepang. But by itself, it can definitely be enjoyable and I like it.

Race so wild I had to colour code it. Anyways the quality is terrible so you'll have to click to see a better image.
Of course I missed some stuff (like Ocon having a tear-off in his air duct or whatever happened with Alonso) but I ran out of space so this is all I could get lol
Daniel's probably watching the shit show that is Red Bull (VCARB included) this weekend and sighing in relief bcs that doesn't have to be him anymore
Beyond estatic for Max's 4th wdc!! The first one I ever got to witness and the first GP i watched with friends too so, pretty special for me :')
I know that no one was surprised with Max's win today but as a community I think that we have to agknowledge that it was his 100th podium finish (youngest to achive this), 20th circuit to get a pole at, and he drove his 10,000th lap this weekend.
is the lewis hamilton and fernando alonso dynamic not just mr turner and dinkleberg on a less cartoony scale
"You're stuck on a desert island with two drivers excluding your teammate, who are you picking?"
"Well to be honest anything I do with Daniel for example, right? It's just- you're laughing constantly cause he's just... Daniel!"
Max that wasn't the question 😭😭
