The Red Gods starting on the front row. Hamilton starting 13th after a disastrous qualifying round.

Let's go!

Yeah, it was just bad luck for Hamilton. He established a benchmark time in qualifying, just to get on the grid. Then, when he was going to go for his real charge, there was a wreck on the grid, and Q time ran out.

My only beef with this race is that it's the exact same course that it was decades ago, but the cars have gotten wider and faster over the years. As a result, it's nearly impossible to overtake anyone. The last one who tried was Max Verstappen last year, and he ended up in a twisted heap at the tire wall.

Monaco is a snore fest. It's like the Hungarian GP, only with better scenery.

Always something going on with one of HAAS cars. Seems like they can never get both cars in the points no matter how well they are running.

Not much you can do unless they change the streets in Monaco.

I just can't get excited about these cars. I want my v8 back!

We used to go to Long Beach each year for the grand prix and those indy cars with the v8 would melt your ears. It was awesome.

This is truly one my favorite days of the year. Monaco, Indy then the 600.

As a Ferrari and Haas fan this was a great day. Ferrari goes 1-2 and snaps a win less streak at Monaco since 2001 and Haas grabs its first double points what an awesome day. Now ready to kick back and get ready for the 500.

My goal in life is to have a boat docked in that harbor for this race. Won't ever happen but it would be awesome

The marque wins at Monaco for the first time in a LONG time, and the first 1-2 in 7 years.
