About the match
Monaco — slow, narrow, glamorous, faintly ridiculous, and impossible to pass on. The race itself is often a procession; the qualifying is where the championship gets decided around here, because pole at the Principality is worth roughly forty places elsewhere. The 2026 cars are wider and heavier still, which means even less room between the Armco. Watch instead for the Saturday afternoon hot-lap, the radio of someone who has just kissed a barrier in Casino Square, and the inevitable Sunday Safety Car that detonates strategy. Sky's coverage in the UK builds out from Friday morning practice; the build-up itself is half the fun.
