It's bad for the sport to have one team dominating, five races so far and five Mercedes 1-2's, and it's not even close. Given that 10 weeks ago, it was looking like Ferrari were the team to beat in Spain, but clearly, Mercedes were sandbagging like crazy, I can't believe that have turned around such a massive deficit into a huge surplus, 0.8 seconds a lap.
I did like David Croft's analogy that F1 is like a soundcheck at a rock concert, Mercedes, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, 1-2, that made me chuckle.
I did watch the whole race, although frankly, most of it was duller than dishwater. I might just skip Monaco, I don't like the race and with Mercedes dominance, it'll be a ZZZzzz.
