If today’s GP2 at Monaco is anything to go by, you’ll definitely want to watch the F1 on Sunday.
It was a dramatic start to the GP2 today as 14 cars crashed on the first corner of the race (in fairness, it’s what we were all secretly hoping for).
Thankfully, none of the drivers were injured but nine of the cars were too badly damaged to continue the race.
The race winner, Briton’s Sam Bird, was caught up in the incident, but after sticking on a new rear wing his car was able to restart the race.
“It was great to be in control for the whole thing,” said Bird. “We were actually very fortunate as well. We had a big hit at the start from behind with Ceccon.
“We were very lucky to be able to secure a new rear wing during the red flag. Without it, I would have DNF-ed the race. We were very, very lucky in that respect.”
We can’t be 100 per cent sure, but we have a feeling that some sneaky pigeons were out pouring oil on the track last night, after the Brazilian driver Felipe Nasr nearly killed one in qualifying.
