Poll: Official 2025 Monaco Grand Prix Race Thread - Circuit de Monaco - Race 8/24

This could end up being a blinder for Hadjar

 

[Kenai]

Mercedes pinning hopes on late safety cars presumably

 

[Mesai]

Wow. Those are interesting tactics from Racing Bull.

Swap the cars, let Lawson get ahead and do the same.

 

[Terminal_Boy]

What’s Toto got up his sleeve today?

 

[OldKitMan]

Handy stop for Ferrari

 

[muon]

What are RBR doing? Gonna lose out to Hamilton.

Praying for an SC?

 

[imtoooldforthis]

Ferrari pit stops have been very slick

 

[UTmaniac]

Max inherits the lead, how long will he stay out on the "hards?" 22 laps so far.

 

[spook2575]

Ferrari with the pit stops

The Monaco gamble. Usually pays off.

I think Max is going long at this rate and potentially waiting for any sort of safety car to make their changes. No chance you can beat McLaren just by copying what they're doing a lap later. Definitely got to gamble here to make anything work.

 

[Stu999]

That Laura Mueller is lovely.

 

[booyaka]

Is that 27 laps and 1 on track overtake from Kimi??

Ridiculous "race" - Should be renamed as an exhibition drive

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Brundle speaking the truth as normal.

 

[UTmaniac]

Wish the BBC leaderboard would indicate which compound drivers are using and what they have used from previous pit stops.

All sounds so much more exciting via BBC audio, compared to watching this dross in years gone by.

Max in after 28 laps, now on meds.

 

[utajoker]

Zzz this is not a race

 

[Nick1881]

Is there any way to make Monaco more interesting? This is such a bore fest.

Maybe we could have qualifying as normal, then on a Sunday have them race in karts or something?

They’ll never do it, but remove it off the calendar and go elsewhere to a much better circuit

 

[t2na]

Could Hadjar potentially win here?! He's pitted twice and is comfortably in 7th place right now.

Edit: maybe not, didn't realise he was lapping so slowly since his second stop. Guess 50 laps on Hards is a big ask.

unfortunately not a guarantee that what took its place would be better
