10: Was Monaco Really An F1 Race with Ben Collins
The tame racing driver who never speaks has plenty to say in this week's episode as Ben Collins joins Ben Edwards and NIcola Hume to discuss the jewel in the F1 crown - Monaco. But was it really a great race or just a 78 lap drivers' parade? Plus he shares a great story about Jeremy Clarkson that he probably shouldn't be telling us.
Probably the biggest first corner of the year in terms of potential positions gained, and no repeat of Max at Imola on Piastri this time despite being side by side, was he put off by Lando lock up or thinking championship?
First lap rookie ruck, Antonelli and Bortolotti clash on track, should Bortoleto have seen Kimi coming or was it a naive lung from Antonelli?
The new two pitstop rules allowed Racing Bulls and Williams to use teammates to back the pack up to allow clean pitstops. Clever or destroying the F1 spectacle?
What has Fernando got to do for his first points? Qualified 6th, then retired with engine trouble. Despite that is this further proof Fernando and Aston are back?
Nightmare weekend for George Russell. So frustrated he cuts a corner to overtake thinking he’ll get 10 second time penalty but gets drive through. Interesting tactics or awful cheat?
Special mention for Lando Norris who seems to have exercised the demons in Monaco, season defining for him do we think? Also how do McLaren manage this with Max so close in the championship?
