Did you watch the race mate? There was at least 3 different leaders off the top of my head and a hell of a lot of changes in the top 10, I agree sometimes the races can be stale especially at Monaco but no matter who you support it was an exceedingly good race to watch

Last year's was dull.

This one was interesting because drivers approached it as a demolition derby - Bottas/Raikonnen, Ocon/Perez, Sauber/Sauber, Hulkenberg, Raikonnen's puncture - and the damage that occurred from the bits on the circuit.

I've only recently started getting into F1 properly but yeah I heard it was a dull affair, but yes we need more races like yesterday :)

Nope, Ips! I share that view. There is little difference in watching F1 in vision, or just listening to the sound of the cars going round the track. I posted earlier in this thread or another F1 thread that we need to spice up for the viewing public! Burning diesel spread on the track after ten laps, wrecking balls attached to cranes after twenty and some plastic remote control animals wandering across the track randomly. It's the way forward.

Not on your own pal. Was a fan for years but haven't been interested for a while. Paint wins every time for me!

Good luck getting the drivers to sign any contracts with those conditions XD

Interesting.

"Bottas was leading clearly when he was eaten by an animatronic rhinoceros at the hairpin".

This year is better than most of the last few because there are at least two teams who can compete in most races - with cars that favour different tracks. The last Schumacher Ferrari seasons, the Red Bull domination and the Mercedes domination crushed the life out of several years.
