Oh ok. I thought BBC got ten.

I think they would (and did in 2012) if there were 20 races. But there are only 19.

I'm happy about not wasting a live race on Monaco.

To be honest, so am I. The level of criticism I have for Monaco hasn't subsided even after my visit there. It's a great place, unique land, soaked with F1 history, etc, but the race, the essence of F1, isn't quite, well, race. I have been a vocal enemy in one of my local Bulgaria TopGear columns, and I got a lot of hate because of that position, but that's how I see it, no matter how selfish that is.

Now, I see we are more than one. This race desperately needs new life, which has to start with track re-shape, although this is enormously hard task - I've seen it with my own eyes. In Monaco every inch of land is being used. Still, the race doesn't provide the level of excitement that has to come with every round of the pinnacle of the motorsports. It's more like a flossing with my new yacht...
