    It’s a few years since I have been to the GP having fallen out of love of F1, but the last time I was there coming down from the railway station was row after row of stalls selling F1 mementos or scarves hats polo shirts etc. Be nice to see that again ie from just the ordinary fans perspective, me I just think the drivers are pampered pets now who winge at the slightest thing

    Bad racing product
    Horrible street course
    Complaints from drivers about the actual racing product
    Qualifying is the most interesting part about Monaco tbh.
    The Indy 500 on the Same day appeals much more into getting fans into Motorsports
    Overtaking
    For the casual fan and every fan
    Decent racing product
    On a purpose built track
    Little complaints about racing product

    With all due respect I don't see how a circuit where over taking is virtually impossible can be the peak of motorsport. Can't wait for the spectacle but it's not much of a race imo.
