It’s the Monaco Grand Prix this afternoon. It’s a shite circuit and produces little or no racing. But who wouldn’t want to be a part of this?

Its the ultimate of all driving races. Its classic road racing at its finest
Its no curated race track, its traditional road:
No barriers, no sand pits, no barrel barricades - it requires the creme de la creme of driver skills and peak machines.
Hence why you rarely see a newbie. Its so prestigious its drivers come from racing families and often start trainig at about 5.

@OogieBoogie No barriers? That hasn’t been the case since the 1950s when that poor chap skidded into the harbour and died.

@AdmiralPrune you know what i mean, its kinda like the Isle of Man Tt - theres little protection from stone walls, gutters etc.
Its a brutal track, with very little forgiveness.
You make it or you dont.

A shite circuit? I think the tunnel portion is pretty cool myself.
Not worth it for the grand prix, I'll just sit on a bridge on the M25 with a beer and replicate the experience 🤭

It’s what I think of when I picture Formula 1.
