Monaco remains the crown jewel. The atmosphere is unmatched for good reason. History and legacy play a role. So many great champions have demonstrated nerves and skill here. You can't help but feel it. The Automobile Club de Monaco have also done an excellent job at improving and modernizing their facilities. It's always going to be cramped, but that's part of the exclusive charm. The new FOM camera angles are excellent. Still a bit strange to see all the standard F1 sponsors in place of #Monaco's quirky mix of local and global brands. I do think it's time they paid more than they have, though just like Ferrari, having Monaco on the calendar is the same as an appearance fee in any other major tournament. Could they improve the race and the circuit? Sure. The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) could require the teams to use only the two softest compounds over the weekend. No point in making it a strategy race if you don't create a real and exciting opportunity to pass. Move the DRS zone. The current DRS zone is mostly useless. Make the tunnel a DRS zone and change the Nouvelle Chicane to a left-right jog and you'd have an excellent spot for overtakes without slamming on the brakes as is now the case. These two adjustments would greatly heighten the tension and provide some real excitement without requiring the Principality to spend big money on changes to the "track". One last thing: bring back the 4 day event. Monaco is an excellent opportunity to capitalize on marketing opportunities. The teams have many more sponsors who need to engage and activate fans at the circuit and online. The extra day always provides everyone involved an extra day to create and maximize the value of such an extraordinary place. Long may she reign! #F1 #FIA #MonacoGP #MonacoCircuit

For some, the beauty of Formula 1 is all about motorsport. For others, it’s all about technology, the incredible innovation behind the world’s most technology-driven sport. But the reality is that you can’t separate the two. Formula 1 is at once about sport, technology and innovation. Formula 1 is a massive research and development powerhouse. Technologies developed within the closed walls of F1 team factories find their way into other industries, making our lives simpler, safer and more efficient. F1 boasts technology that's innovative, ground-breaking – and life-saving. F1 cars already use the world's most efficient engine, while the sport's engineers and pit crews are locked in an all-out battle to beat the stopwatch... and their rivals!

First post about a topic that I particularly care about. Please stay tuned for more infos and it would also be nice to start a conversation about #equaloportunities. Share your thoughts, please, let’s spread some awareness about our beloved sport!

This IWD we are spotlighting Saudi Arabian driver Reem Al Aboud, who recently set a new benchmark for acceleration in a FIA single-seater - 60mph/100kph in 2.49 seconds. Reem, who was only able to legally drive for the first time in 2018, is a supporter of Formula E’s Girls on Track and evidence of how the Championship is driving change in the region and beyond. The current F1 car set-up achieves 0-60mph in 2.6 seconds. The time is the fastest ever acceleration achieved as a female racer in an FIA formula/single-seater car.

R̶e̶d̶ Blue Ferrari: do you know the story behind it? It goes back to 1964... When Enzo Ferrari, in a dramatic stand, vows never to race in Italy's red again. Why? Politics, deception, or a legendary defiance that changed racing forever? It's not sure. The root of it all? Disagreements over regulations and a deep-seated feud with the FIA and Italy's ACI. It started with the 250 GTO and a clever, yet controversial, move to meet homologation rules. Fast forward to 1964, the 250 LM faces homologation rejection, igniting Enzo's fury. His response? A bold declaration to abandon Italy's racing red. The United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen was the first occasion. The championship contender John Surtees and colleague Lorenzo Bandini find themselves driving for a "fresh team": The North American Racing Team.  (Blue and white of the United States) Surtees won the 1964 World Championship in Mexico, a historic victory making him the only champion on both 2 and 4 wheels, and the first to win in a Ferrari not adorned in its iconic red.
