I enjoyed the Monaco GP more this year. The Indy 500 was exciting but it is supposed to slowly build towards a thrilling climax and this year that climax was spoiled by crashes and red flags, which killed the flow of the race and the many restarts made it seem like a bit of a lottery. It was still a good race overall, but didn't beat the excitement of the wet conditions in Monaco. It was probably more entertaining than the first part of the race, which had a fascinating battle for third and some great overtakes further back in the pack. Admittedly, there wasn't any doubt about who would finish first and second, apart from when it rained, but that has been the case all season and at least this time another team was closer to Red Bull.
