I like Max. He’s having a rough time though. At least he didn’t hit Sainz. It was damn close.

Actually the accident was caused by Sainz being too slow. By the overtake Max was forced off the ideal line ,while he was on the limit..

Overtaking in Monaco is very twitchy and tricky .

They need to have mirrors around some of those corners, like in a parking garage. Crazy how tight it is.

Max needs to get his act together real quick.
For all the comparisons with F1 legends, the likes of Senna, Schumacher and Hamilton certainly didn't fuck up this much at this stage of their career.

Your idea is good , but I don't think they have the nessesary time to check some mirrors in Monaco (not sure)
At the limit it's crazy fast in Monaco..

Max threw away a possible Monaco pole and win. Although Ricciardo certainly wasn't going to hand it to him. A shame we were robbed of that battle.

Ricciardo should get either Kimi's or Bottas's seat in offseason. He would get more out of either of those seats. We already know he is a challenge to Vettel in the same car.
