We have resisted this topic for years. But it now must be addressed. Should the Monaco Grand Prix be retired? F1 is now so big and yes, so American, that the sport no longer needs Monaco. But we love it. We absolutely love it. We love the setting, the glamour, the history, the yachts. We want a world where James Bond and the Monaco Grand Prix are alive and thriving.
And yet... we can't ignore what our eyes see. Unlike the stewards!
Join Brian and Patrick on the Hard Compound for the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix. Where Mercedes young gun, Kimi Antonelli, continues to win, and where Lewis Hamilton has reclaimed his form. All this and more.
And as always, thank you for listening to everybody's most beloved father and son F1 podcast!
