I have a stupid, shallow opinion of the Monaco Grand Prix and I'm not ashamed of it. I love it. When the track became available to drive on Gran Turismo (5? 6? I don't remember) it was one of my favorites. The location is beautiful, the weekend it glamorous, and it's one of the few times in any sport where I enjoy the whole thing. So what if it's a parade? It puts extra emphasis on qualifying and makes the practices a little more interesting. Besides, F1 cars are cool, and few things in the world are cooler than F1 cars on the streets of Monaco.

When Perez is free, I have some gardening for him to do and a lawn to mow. I love how he, Magnuson, and Ocon all went to the Shaggy school of non-apologies: it wasn't me!

My wife hates Tsunoda, but I'm secretly rooting for him every race because Sargent seems to be a lost cause and Yuki's the closest thing I have to a fellow countryman on the grid. Sigh.

I like LeClerc winning, but it's quite hard to think of Monaco as a place with a really strongly nationalistic home crowd. The population is like 95% rich people from everywhere else. It's not quite like Senna winning the Brazilian GP, is it? Or even Zhou just showing up at Shanghai!
