And I know that Fernando Alonso is very critical of claiming that these hybrids shouldn't be racing in Monaco and so this is the worst generation of F1 car he's driven around here.
Who am I to disagree with the great Fernando Alonso?
And I'm sure his experience is probably the worst he's ever had in Monaco if you look at it competitively and in terms of how much of a handful the Aston Martin looks.
But honestly, when I look at what...
What we're seeing from onboards, when I see from outside of the circuit, when I've seen how much the drivers are hassling these cars and how much they're moving around, I wouldn't say the 26 cars are perfect for Monaco, but I think they look so much better around here than the old cars.
Like a mini monster truck.
Didn't really understand it because his explanation didn't actually make any sense.
Sort of hopping over the kerbs, was it something to do with that?
I don't know.
Yeah, and you could see when Hadjo had that shunt, he was much more to the inside, almost like, not in the middle of the road, but sort of between the middle and the outside as one of the many mopeds of Monaco fly off into the night.
He was nowhere near the outside barrier, so it's almost like he took too shallow an entry, chucked the car in, the rear just went, nope, and just went around.
He was basically gone before he got to the apex, which is just such an unusual one.
If you can hear, obviously there's lots of background noise.
Again, I apologise if this is coming through loudly.
If you can also hear some paper rustling in the background, that's just because Josh is absolutely scanning his quote-unquote taco, which is absolutely not a taco.
It's flatbread adjacent, but it's more like a wrap.
He's having a nice time.
I urged him to eat his dinner.
Otherwise, he was going to stand there while his food goes cold.
And he's not even participating in this conversation.
