FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO 2024
I am fairly sure this is the worst race I have ever seen. Might as well have called it 80 formation laps. Jesus.
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
5 is pretty high for Monaco. I’m sure there have been years with zero on track overtakes before.
There wasn’t a single one inside the points, though, so that definitely didn’t help
Have they?? I can’t remember any year with 0. Till lap 50, I was thinking that we may have zero today.
It happened twice before I think
2021 apparently had zero on track overtakes
Oh yeah. I completely forgot about that. I guess that the strategic battle between overcutting and undercutting kept me engrossed enough. Also helped by the fact that verstappen was not driving nearly as slowly as people today.
