Well I think I must have been watching a different race because I switched off long before the ( predictable ) finish to watch the final episode of Line of Duty. I think Toto may be sending out cards to RB and others reading " One swallow does not a summer make" This business with track limits drives me mad, why can't the FIA make a firm, non negotiable decision so the teams know where they are. I never thought I would say this after watching F1 for 60+ years but I am bored by it. I don't like the commentator either, far too excitable over not a lot. Where is Eddie or Mark when you need them. Shame Ben left for pastures new. Walk of shame for you Reg, Ferrari 6th and 11th not even DNF they are improving and Mclaren getting better. That commentator is on acid I think, but pretty please no midget Eddie back he is SO agronoying, Mark Weber is cool and with serious experience.

I've stopped watching it completely. It's duller than a dull thing.

Rich, you right about Ferrari, what are they doing? There seems to be little evidence of a genuine step forward. The best thing for me at that race was the interview with Stefano, a one time brilliant Ferrari team boss and a really nice chap to boot. Poor old Eddie, yes he can be a bit of a twit but he always seemed to know what was going on, I expect all the good presenters have gone to Sky or Eurosport.
Here for a good time not a long time!!

Reg, Have you got that Brunello di Montalcino ready? Bob, I couldn't wait so I had it on Sunday. A great result for Ferrari, shame about Charles damaging his car but for me the best result so far even if Monaco is really just a round and round drive with a big piss up on your yacht in the harbour. A slight trip down tangent boulevard if I may, I saw a change in the black lives matter slogan which made me smile, some one had added an "O" in front of "Lives" Much better I feel.

Absolutely, I always record them and FF a lot and I got the Monaco down to 10 minutes, it's the most boring track out there and it's time they dropped it off the calendar.

It's not about the racing, it's the feel and atmosphere of the whole weekend. I was lucky to spectate there with a friend who has an address there. ...a one off experience.
.+8 Now gone for a 1800 4/4. Duratec in bright yellow.
