That must be the car they used in the first 2022 test, before they introduced the current zero sidepods design.

I don't care what anyone says; I look forward to watching the Monaco Grand Prix every year.

 

So do I, but I still consider it's a Mickey Mouse circuit, not very representative in racing terms.
Monaco cannot improve: it's not even a one square mile country, FFS !!!

 

I don't disagree. I highly value the prowess necessary to put the car on pole, and the extra glory that comes from winning when not starting on pole.

 

Just like the Casino, the Monaco circuit is a high risk gamble.
Personally, I prefer high speed tracks like Spa, Monza or Suzuka.

 

I like those too!

 

I wish Monaco would have just been rained out instead

 

As of now, the forecast for Monaco race weekend is - WET! That could make for a most interesting race.

 

If it is a wet race, it will be very entertaining to watch crashes and drama !

 

They should force all the teams to make a smaller car just for Monaco...and when they see how much better the racing is, they can make those the specs for the whole season.

 

So do I. Qualifying I admit is the best part. But how often do we see impossibly boring races on real tracks as well?

 

give them a sprint race in a current gen F3 car. Narrow, light, sounds good, goes well around MC.

 

And the worst(of all time)

It could still happen.

 

Nah, that honor goes to the French GP.

 

Oops, you beat me to it. Darn.

 

worst trophy or worst band?

 

Both !!!

 

HA HA!!!

 

Monaco is all about the parties... and not much about racing. I've been several times over the years... each time after I say never again... Have not been since all the Russian money infestation... chopper rides from Nice to Monaco doubled!
