F1 2025 (and other motorsports)

Piastri gets it done again. Hopefully Max can get into P1 from the start as there will be more entertainment in him defending against Piastri than Piastri cruising to the win from the get go.

FFS how unlucky is Piastri with safety cars? Gutted.

Great move from Verstappen at the start but Piastri will hate watching that back, seemingly got too zoned in on defending from Russell.

That was pretty much the race in the bag, no tyre deg issues for Red Bull here and Norris was never getting a run at him even if he'd been let through instantly.

Good results for Ferrari but they are still miles off McLaren and Red Bull

Tsunoda just been saved from serious injury or worse by all the safety gear, horrendous crash from which he walks away.

Mad to look back at how many in the sport as well as fans were dead against stuff like the halo primarily on the basis of aesthetics.

Zhou Guanyu would have likely been killed at Silverstone(?) a couple of years back without it.

Hamilton as well, that time Verstappen parked his car on top of Lewis’ a few years ago

Lance Stroll everybody. Lance Stroll

It's poor but in his defence he had no radio comms at the time which is a common issue at Monaco.

Leclerc is a monster at Monaco. Outrageous pace in FP2

 

[PhilM]

Verstappen's free practice pace looks to have improved a fair bit.

 

[goldfinchmule]

Well done Norris,great lap.

 

[Wizard]

Brilliant final lap by Lando to take pole.

 

[longers]

Great quali session, made more dramatic by McLaren doing a double run in the final Q3 run

 

[Wizard]

Hamilton demoted to P7 for impeding Verstappen. Feels a little harsh as it was the team screwing up but he clearly did impede him.

 

[AndyP94]

I think that Hamilton penalty's spoiled things a bit because I was expecting Ferrari Vs McLaren tactics to play a big part in the race but it should be easy for a McLaren win tomorrow baring any safety car. Hope I'm wrong and things get spicy.

Indy 500 later today, always better than Monaco if only for the fact it's the single most terrifying and dangerous race on the planet

Schwartzman (ex Ferrari academy driver) somehow got pole this year as a rookie with Prema who are also running the event for the first time ever
