I fell in love with F1 watching the 84 Monaco Grand Prix where Ayrton Senna

showed to the world he had arrived, driving the worst possible car and finishing 2nd (would have won if they hadn't stopped the race halfway through due to rain). Ended up going to Monaco a few years ago to watch the Grand Prix in person, it was raining again, not as exciting as the old time races but still fun.

Wait, so a battery can be recharged through braking? -- Hokie1992 05/21/2021 06:17AM

The concept is already available to road cars. Regenerative braking. -- Spud 05/21/2021 07:33AM

Believe Tesla (& other) EVs currently use that technology. -- EDGEMAN 05/21/2021 09:59AM

If you watch a race or two you will pick up the story lines quickly. -- VT Pops 05/20/2021 9:35PM

I hate Monaco, and wish that race was deleted from the schedule. -- EDGEMAN 05/20/2021 10:34PM

Welcome to F1. You picked the best and worst weekend to start. Monaco. -- Spud 05/20/2021 8:42PM

Monaco is a big time parade, track is narrow, cars are wide -- typed by ben 05/20/2021 8:29PM

The thing that blows me away is the cost of the cars -- HokieDan95 05/20/2021 7:11PM

Surprised it was that low -- EDGEMAN 05/21/2021 10:16AM
