Looking at the car positions, tire strategies and stage of the race this should all be really exciting, but isn't

Dan will have another go before the end. He can't help himself.

Correction, I only met the bloke yesterday and I don't really speak Italian. He clarified he was team manager of Brabham-Alfa. Yikes! Not minor then... Anyway, seems a top bloke.

Funny old world

I'd agree but the bar is never high for Monaco, it's usually a garbage race.

He was at McLaren when they were OK rather than outright poo poo and he didn't impress. He's good and has occasional moments of really good driving, but I doubt he'll ever get outside of the midfield again.

They've also got no clue how their own tires operate so take that with a grain of salt. They were supposed to have a "cliff where the compound changes and the tires slow down and Pat Symonds said that they wouldn't have thought it was there if Pirelli hadn't mentioned it.

It's a loving joke that they brought the ultras in to be super fast degrading tires and they're degrading slower than the supers.
