LeClerc won everybody's hearts with his post-calamity press conference: "I am stupid...For the next three or four hours, I will be mostly beating myself up." He gave himself a grid penalty there and others also received some, most notably the Alpha Romeos, giving Kimi the chance to earn himself 15 fantasy points for moving up places from the grid. Do you think Liberty will be stealing this idea from me soon too? The teams and drivers are definitely taking the fastest lap point seriously with LeClerc pitting specially to earn it.
We were promised thrills from Ferrari and spills from Safety Cars (apparently there were lots in the F2 race). There were none. Some mistakes were made: Kubica was given a penalty for leaving the pit lane too early, Ricciardo reversed into Kvyat, Gasly lost power.
Mercedes continue their domination despite everyone saying that they are not dominating and Ferrari have the best car and drivers. Not if 6 1-2s and a 74 point lead have anything to say.
Finally, Di Resta dropped a "youse" into his podium interviews - reclaiming his Scottishness in case of independence post-Brexit and a Scottish passport will allow him to continue living in Monaco.
