Tbh I wouldn't change a thing, I had a tonne of fun yesterday. Once you've watched F1 for a while and understand what's going on in the background, even just watching the timing screens can be exciting. Watching the gap between Piastri and Russel, for most of the race you couldn't tell of it would open up to a full pit stop, at which point Piastri would probably have pitted, triggering a Pit stop for both Ferraris and Norris aswell. I get that more casual viewers need more on track action, and I probably wouldn't like if the whole season was like that, but for one race a year I think it's great.
Same! I'm surprised by how many people think Monaco should be binned for the crime of being strategic rather than action-packed. If you're that affronted then watch F2 or MotoGP, there's much more overtaking in them!
If all you care about is on track action, F1 is probably one of the worst racing series for you. Not even half the races are action packed, and that's been the case for probably 10-20 years or even more.
