How happy must Piastri be that he ditched Apline for McLaren?

Apparently he talked some shite about Gasly afterwards as well.


OCO apologized on X.

Meanwhile, Bruno was obviously not pleased with Pierre.


Why? GAS didn’t do anything. I believe they were told not to race one another but OCO decided to do that anyways . . . on lap 1/78. They could’ve had a chance at double points had OCO not suicided himself into his teammate.

I haven't been able to take NASCAR serious for about ~20 years

I lost interest with all the chase shenanigans. And now, I don't even understand what this stage stuff is, i've been away from paying attention so long.

You sound new to F1, welcome. There are a few races on the calendar where the excitement is on Saturday, not Sunday. Circuit of Monaco is an extremely technical and challenging time attack style of course. But it is not a very good wheel to wheel race for the large F1 cars. These are the kind of races to watch every minute of Qualifying, yet fast forward through most of the race. 20 cars qualifying same time at Monaco is fantastic racing chaos.

Anyone that has been an overall racing fan would also realize NASCAR is a shell of its 90s-2000s self.

While I prefer a lot of F1 of old (2012ish and earlier), F1 is on fire popularity wise. It’s crazy the amount of people that talk to me about it now. Of course they all ask if I watch Drive to Survive (which I have not and don’t intend to as I know it’s a made up soap opera).

I can legitimately say I don't understand the mentality of comparing racing leagues to each other.

Personally I think Nascar is complete crap, so I don't watch it. I don't go to Nascar forum and stir shite for no reason.

Just watch what you want and if you don't like it don't watch it.

What's the point in jumping on the forum to comment on what others might like?

We all agree that this was the most boring race of all time?

Ferrari only 24 points behind RBR in constructors.

With Sergio really falling off and RBR in general not looking as strong could it be?

F1 as a whole is boring
F1 is a million times more interesting than NASCAR. Sorry you're such a bozo that you feel the need to troll this thread, but reality is what it is.

Just watched the replay. You did it, Charl. You did it.

This sport sucks arse. What a marketing heist they've pulled off on the "cool kids" who have decided to follow it.

I do like the cheesy grid walks that bit is fun.

Why does it suck exactly? It’s actually a surprisingly close constructors so far
