F1 2024: Monaco GP - Monte Carlo (May 26)

M5Rick · 05-25-2024, 02:52 AM

The track is too narrow at Monaco and it shows with the many barrier rubs yet Monaco scrapes through with the FIA regs, like narrow track Imola does, then why did they stop the F1 at Brands Hatch? ie the cars now are too big and wide, fans should pucker up and be writing to Paris telling them the regs are being written erroneously for tracks and the cars.

It's getting silly as KMags on a hot lap nearly has a collision with T/M Hulk and TSU in the tunnel slowing in a heartbeat moment.This place may be a play town for the very rich and that's what probably pushes the gov.body into allowing the race to take place here but in reality it's no race track anymore for the size of the cars.

IC Red Bull has turned their engine back up.

Sandbagging is an old MB trick, no?

Charlie is saying he's out of position with everybody and he has that worrying tone about him...

Pretty chaotic Q1 with constantly so many cars on track.
Lots of changes in position as the track develops.

GuidoK · 05-25-2024, 09:20 AM

ALO and PER out in Q1....
Wow....

Last year ALO almost had Pole if it wasn't for that crazy sector then by Max...

Negative . Horner said : We have time enough...

IMHO . It looks really bad for Checo .. Sainz is the man to get Checo's seat !
