    I am fairly sure this is the worst race I have ever seen. Might as well have called it 80 formation laps. Jesus.

      I think I counted like 5 overtakes that did not involve a crashed car. Ridiculous really. Last week at least there was some hope that one could pull a move. No such hope here

        5 is pretty high for Monaco. I’m sure there have been years with zero on track overtakes before.

          Have they?? I can’t remember any year with 0. Till lap 50, I was thinking that we may have zero today.

            2021 apparently had zero on track overtakes

              Oh yeah. I completely forgot about that. I guess that the strategic battle between overcutting and undercutting kept me engrossed enough. Also helped by the fact that verstappen was not driving nearly as slowly as people today.
