Oh my god that was dangerous from Ocon, Gasly is absolutely right to be pissed.

Ocon literally did what he did to Perez back at Force India - overtake stupidly and leave no room for his teammate.

[-] WhiteHawk@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago

I am fairly sure this is the worst race I have ever seen. Might as well have called it 80 formation laps. Jesus.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I think I counted like 5 overtakes that did not involve a crashed car. Ridiculous really. Last week at least there was some hope that one could pull a move. No such hope here

[-] MY_ANUS_IS_BLEEDING@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago

5 is pretty high for Monaco. I'm sure there have been years with zero on track overtakes before.

Haas and Alpines taking each other out. Typical Sunday.

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Haas was a stupid move by Magnussen, he shouldn't have been there, Nico got caught in it. Ocon, what was he trying to do?

[-] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 months ago

Oh look an overtake.....I have seen enough...Bottas DOTD

Leclerc says he'll bring the car home, proceeds to drive directly to his apartment parking garage.

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 11 points 3 months ago

Checo should do a Kimi and go straight onto a yacht to his family lol

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 3 months ago

Going by past evidence, it is more likely that he will go to a yacht with people who are not his family \s

Holy shit Perez's car. Thankfully he's out of the car.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 3 months ago

Wow overtakes(plural)α••(ᐛ)α•—

[-] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 months ago

The video editor's gonna have a hard time extending the race highlights over a minute

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

Haha the F1TV commentary just mentioned the exact same thing.

Ah classic, Alpines bonking into each other. Huge lift off the ground.

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 3 months ago

Wow crazy management going on. This seems that it could be pretty dull.

[-] PPQ@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

As is tradition! This race needs to go, I get the tradition behind the race, but the cars are just too damn fast and large for this track anymore.

[-] BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com 5 points 3 months ago

Everyone is trying to go slower than the next driver, that's not racing!

Finally a pass on track! Bottas just got ahead of Sargeant.

[-] 4am@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

Oh my god now the Alpines! Monaco 70 is quite a mess this far

[-] Microw@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

An overtake? THAT COUNTS FOR THE STATISTICS

[-] narc0tic_bird@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

Red flag should be pretty good for the race leaders who started on mediums as they can slap on a set of hards now and likely go to the end of the race on them. Not so good for the Mercedes and Max behind starting on the hards, as they'll have to either stop for mediums later or stick on mediums now but these will likely not last until the end of the race.

[-] espentan@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

"Of the four of you, you are the best" - now there's some motivation for you, Piastri.

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Tsunoda and Albon in 8th and 9th just got lapped by Russell and Verstappen in 5th and 6th..

[-] BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com 4 points 3 months ago

And now Zhou and Sargeant have been lapped twice, I have not seen this in a long time.

First points for Williams, great job Albono.

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 months ago

Yay Red Bull floor pics

[-] GreenEngineering3475@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Perez out of the GP

[-] lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

He's finally done it! Well done Leclerc.

Quite surprised to see Russell hold off Verstappen until the end.

The cars are too fucking reliable to give an interesting Monaco race. The fact that there was a 1st lap red flag further diminished any hope of excitement.

[-] reddwarf@feddit.nl 4 points 3 months ago

Very happy for Charles!

But something needs to happen to this race. As it is now it is a Saturday race with qualifying, the race on Sunday is negligible, boring even.

Leclerc's engineer kinda made it sound like Sainz was the cause of the red flag.

Leclerc: Is everyone ok?

Engineer: Everyone is fine. Sainz had a puncture.

At last some thing has happened with stroll pitting

Damn it, a safety car was so close

Russell taking it super slow with the medium tire. Guess the plan's to take it till the end.

[-] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

Mercedes you idiot sandwichs

Will be interesting to see if max can go forward somewhat

Can't wait for the replay.

[-] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

It kinda looks like a racing incident since the track is narrow or it's on both Checo and KMag

[-] alphacyberranger@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

Name a better love story than Ocon and penalties

This could get tasty

[-] BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Sargeant seems to be dropping like a stone: he has been passed by Botas and Stroll, now Zhou is right in his gearbox...

[-] hsr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 months ago

Once the top 4 catch up to backmarkers they have to pit, surely?

[-] Sentau@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 months ago

No why. They will just lap them and continue as normal. No need to pit now as they have all used both compunds

How slow can we drive, and still not be passed. That seems to be the question.
