Monaco was supposed to be boring.

Instead, we got crashes, strategy chaos, a late safety car, and another statement drive from Kimi Antonelli.

Is Kimi already running away with this championship?

This episode includes:

• Why Monaco finally produced some genuine drama in 2026
• Williams’ clever strategy… and how it still somehow turned into a Williams weekend
