I really disliked it. If we're racing all at the same time to a finish line, then overtakes HAVE to happen. Monaco as a traditional F1 GP is dead.

The pit shenanigans are not what I watch F1 for. It's like the pinch of salt on the steak, brings out flavour, but salt isn't meat and you can't replace one with the other.

Max staying out in #1 just waiting for that flag to come was ridiculous, IMO. Even worse trying to back up Norris into Leclerc. People will disagree, and defend that it's a valid strategy, and it is, but it's also goddamn embarrassment. I'm sure everyone was looking at Tsunoda like hawks to see if he'd pull a "Nelson Piquet". That's just the kind of bullshit that NASCAR would pull off, and there's a reason they're dying: race integrity is a goddam farce if you don't slap down all this nonsense.

We're here to see the best pilots in the world pushing blazing fast, state of the art cars, to their absolute limit and beyond.

Instead, what we got was a clown show of a parade, with people intentionally driving slowly to create room for pits and whatnot. How absolutely disgraceful.

Can Monaco be saved? Maybe. The quali was thrilling to watch, so maybe FIA can come up with some sort of special event, with Championship points on the line, but where you try to set a better lap than other racers, like with brackets and if you win you race against (but depart several seconds behind) another winner, and losers Vs losers, until you end up with the top 2 winners fighting it out. I dunno, just a thought.
