F1 Monaco GP 2024 Recap

Since this race has been a little anticlimactic I decided to take note of a few things that happened during the race and added my own little commentary - This is gonna be a long-ish one, continue under "Read more"

Also, the numbers in brackets are lap numbers, for the record.

- Ah. Tyre managing. Fun.

- Valtteri fastest lap??? (18)

- ORF commentators eating blueberries

- THEY'RE MAKING SMALL TALK AHAHAHA

- Max still stuck in 6th

- Fernando train

- "Valt-teri Bot-tas" (why does everyone say it like that)

- Chances of mistakes: 0

- Pitlane window where?

- Lando has vibrations

- Tyres start deteriorating everywhere

- Lando almost kissing the wall (31)

- Max should've brought his pillow

- honk shoo, honk shoo, you get the drill.

- Arthur sighted!

- 39 laps to go, I am falling asleep.

- Carlos being a smooth operator once more

- Daniel almost overtaking Fernando

- Lance in pit (43)

- Lando tyre saving king

- Did I mention that Max is still 6th

- Charles wants to drive faster, his engineer said, and I quote: "We're not interested"

- "That's rude" "Sorry" I'M AHFJSHFJSH

- Max pitstop (52)

- First overtake in the race from Valtteri on Lance (54)

- Lewis fastest lap (54)

- Max fastest lap (55)

- Lewis fastest lap (57)

- You get the gist, lap time ping-pong

- Lap 72, still nothing new

- Except Charles pulled away from Oscar, like... almost nine seconds.

- Oh also Logan hit the wall a few laps back

- "I'll just bring it home" Charles is so real for that

- Last three laps!

- Oh also Max is still in P6.

- Solid

- Get ready for Fratelli d'Italia.

-Last lap starting!

- And with that, Ladies and Gentlemen... the Leclerc curse has ended.

- Top 10 finished exactly the same as they started.

- There's tears running down my face

- This is the most beautiful podium celebration ever

United States 2016

-Clearly the USGP has made an impression on me

-So has the 2016 season

-Mercedes, Red Bull, Ferrari; row 1, 2, and 3 lockout!

-Both Williams in the top 10???

-"Lewis Hamilton gets off well! Nico Roseberg gets off well! And Daniel Ricciardo gets off well!" What a start!

-NO! NICO (H) DAMAGE! Come on! It's Lap 1!

-Perez too? Daniil Kyvyat made contact? Whyyy?

-And now a Bottass puncture. The domino effect works fast.

-Daniel P2!

-Unfortunate for Bottass, started top 10, now dead last

-"Nico Hulkenburg out for the third time this season" I AM SAD

-Never commented on Jenson Button much before but his overtakes this race are pretty cool. P19 to P10!

-Just noticed Nico's glove has a watch on it. Is that real?

-"You might be wondering why track limits don't appear to be being observed this weekend. Join the club" lol

-Grosjean is another driver I rarely talk about, but he's also doing well this race

-I do, however, talk about Checo in his Force India a lot. I just think he's so impressive in that car.

-Kimi and Daniel pitting lap 8. Is this an undercut?

-Ohmygod, I completely did not notice in the last 2016 race I watched but the black McLaren cars are here!!! I love that color so much!

-Nico R: "Pushing hard is not the long game"

-Mercedes double stack? Oh calling Lewis in was a faux?

-Almost all the top teams are pitting to cover each other off

-Aw the undercut didn't work

-Max's move on Kimi there was so smooth

-Daniil being told to move over for Carlos. Makes sense since he's got a 10s penalty for causing a collision in lap 1

-1.8s pit stop for Force India! Insane!

-Nico vs Max

-"In the championship battle, the last thing Roseberg needs is Max Verstappen coming at him right now" But it's so fun when he does

-GP: "Max just makes sure we can complete the stint we need okay mate"

MV: "I'm not here to finish 4th"

Just so much fun

-I swear if either one of the Red Bulls DNF now I will scream

-"One stop strategy? Do you think they're trying- the Toro Rosso?" The Toro Rosso trying for a good strategy? That's new

-Two times now I was hoping for a good battle and the car in front has just gone and pitted. Not cool

-Ohmygod that was horrible! Driver error? Why'd he boxxx!

-Still pretty cool how quickly the mechanics reacted

-I just spoke Max' engine failure into existence. Why the hell did I do that?

-Mercedes double stack!

-Carlos finally having a good race! P6!

-Does Red Bull have to have a bad race for Toro Rosso to do well?

-DR: "Everybody got a free pit stop basically. That's ***"

-I forget how young Max is in 2016

-Magnussen being Magnussen. We love to see it

-It's funny when the commentators try to decode radio messages because they have no idea what's being said

-Something wrong with the Ferrari too?

-Don't think I like how this race is going so far

-There was a gun still attached to the car? Ferrari why!

-"Where are the Ferrari mechanics?" "They've just let him go" What the hell Ferrari!?

-And now he's out of the race

-Watching this race only for Carlos and Daniel now

-Kinda want to see Lewis and Nico go wheel to wheel. Haven't seen that yet

-"Big day for the midfield teams" at least they're happy

-Nico locking up. The universe said no Mercedes battle for you

-Go Carlos go!

-Almost feel bad for Massa being stuck in between the two Spaniards. That must not feel good

-Let's go Fernando! Onto the Spanish civil war! This should be fun

-"Cracking race for him in the Toro Rosso" For once! Finally!

-Carlos racing his racing hero. He must be geeking

-Ah such good defense!

-"Very super aggressive driving from Fernando Alonso"

"Yee ha" ahahaha he's hilarious

-McLaren double points!

-And Carlos having his best finish!

-Also, Daniel podium!!
