Whatever they want to call it, it is a RACE and as a race, it sucked.

Well, that was pretty good as far as Monza races go - six points because the track is so bad, you have to factor that in. Enjoy your pitwall chess tomorrow, I'll have a free Sunday again! :D

I gave it a 3.... could not give it more because 3 points maximum for Sprint races. :mrgreen:

No points for the race itself which as a race sucked, but a point I gave because Max extended his WDC lead, a point for a Danny Ric podium, and a point for Lewis not getting any (points)

2. Two / Due as in Che due palle!
1 point for an interesting start.
1 point for the interesting scrap between Perez and Stro-lol-lol.
1 point for Danny Ric podium
Minus 1 point for no on-track passing within the top 10.

This was not good and I hope we never see another sprint in 2022 (because the last one sucked also).

3. But do you expect anything else from Monza? I realise its history, but it never produced any memorable races in the modern era.

Similar to Silverstone you take the boring bits of the GP, that is one stint, sans start and wrap it into its own session and you end up with whatever we saw. Anybody elses comms teams trying to desperately avoiding the term race during their coverage?
