I for one am just happy. I wasn't there, so I cannot tell, but Karl is an ex-F1 driver, so he is sort off qualified to detect fine nuances of such races. On more sober note, on speed tracks like Spa or Suzuka, I fear back down to Mother Earth, yet I take it, on the nose if I got this one wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KoolMonkey 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2021 I'm in two minds about how well Vettel did in Monaco. 1) I am very happy for him. 2) I think maybe on a circuit you can actually pass, maybe Hamilton and Gasly pass Vettel. I think it's clear Vettel is more comfortable in the car. Monaco is not a circuit you can do well at if you are not. I hope he does well in Baku and Austria. This could be the year his fortunes are on the up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Time for deciding about driver's line up for next year is ON as primary off track conversational subject for next 4 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
