Due to satellite bookings and worldwide TV schedules, F1 races now have a time frame in which they must be completed, so there are no indefinite delays or carry overs until Monday. Also, the teams are often already packing up their gear while the Champagne is flowing because they have to fly halfway around the world for the next race.

Today's Monaco Grand Prix ended up as a pretty dull procession. Monegasque driver Charles Leclerc took pole position at his home race, with championship leader Max Verstappen only able to qualify sixth. Max's team mate, Sergio Perez, was knocked out in the first qualifying session, but started in 16th after the two Haas cars were moved to the back of the grid due to a technical penalty.

The two Haas cars and the Red Bull of Perez were all involved in a crash on the first lap which brought out a red flag. Alpine's Esteban Ocon was also out on the first lap after a collision with his team mate, Pierre Gasly.

Since the red flag allowed all the teams to make their mandatory tire change, most of the race was just about tire management as none of the leaders needed to build a gap for a pit stop. Further down the field there were a few gaps and pit stops, but for the first time I can remember, the top ten finished in the same order they started. Charles Leclerc won his first Monaco Grand Prix for Ferrari with his team mate Carlos Sainz Jr in third. Splitting them was McLaren's Oscar Piastri in second. Off of the podium were McLaren's Lando Norris in fourth, Mercedes' George Russell and Lewis Hamilton in fifth and seventh, and Red Bull's Max Verstappen in sixth.

Carlos Sainz Jr was probably the luckiest driver after a small coming together at the start took him out with a puncture on the first lap, but he was allowed to take the restart in third (his original starting position).

Monaco is a unique track on the F1 calendar with its tight, historic street circuit, but pit stops, crashes and weather usually give us a more exiting race. Let's hope that the Canadian Grand Prix in two weeks will give us more entertainment and maybe even another different winner.

Welcome to HNet, bodukegirly.

The episode you're talking about is 'Pin the Tail on the Dukes' in season 4. The scene is just over half an hour in, and goes like this:
Waylon: Along about this time, a truck was heading through Hazzard for the first time. That driver didn't have a clue about Hazzard's driving conditions.
Bo: Hang on, Hector. Here we go again.
(They swerve the first truck)
Luke: Phew! That was close.
Bo: Bo Duke, you are too much.
(Luke spots the second truck)
Luke: Bo.
Bo: What?
Luke: Bo!
Bo: Oh, my gosh. Hang on.
Waylon: I'm hanging.
(They swerve the second truck)
Luke: How do you do that twice?
Bo: There's only two trucks in Hazzard, right?

There was more than one Clyde in the show, but you're probably talking about Clyde the impound yard guard played by Ernie Lively in 'The Ransom of Hazzard County'.
Ernie appeared in five episodes, and was the real life FATHER of Jason Lively, who appeared in two episodes.

In your discussion above, I think you guys are mixing up DEI meanings. It means both Diversity, Equity & Inclusion and Dale Earnhardt, Inc.

I think it's still possible that Andretti Cadillac could enter F1 in 2026. There are some upcoming rule changes that come into effect for that season, so F1 was dubious that they could develop a car for the 2025 regulations and then a new car for 2026.

It could happen. Last week's race winner, Lando Norris, drives for McLaren, and their racing colors are papaya orange and black. Although drivers keep their race numbers, the champion from the previous season has the option to use the number 1. It currently looks like Max Verspappen will win again this year, but you never know what the future holds...

They mentioned the northern lights on the radio yesterday, but I promptly forgot as I thought it was unlikely we see anything as far south as we are. My friend's son proved me wrong with some beautiful pictures taken only a few miles away. Maybe tonight if I'm still awake, but it's clouding in now.

All the live F1 races are available through the same provider over here, so at least you only need one subscription.

Sounds like a good day. I still look forward to the Monaco Grand Prix (May 26th this year, BTW) even though it's rarely a very exciting race these days. It must be the historic setting.

He came to F1 really young, and I could see how talented he was, but his first world title should've gone to Lewis Hamilton if the officials had followed the rules correctly. Since then he's made a few questionable moves on the track. So, while I can acknowledge his skill as a driver, I'm not a fan.

Certain character combinations are automatically converted to emojis to save you having to go to the emoji button and add them in. I find it quite useful, but because the close bracket ')' character is used for a lot of the smiling emojis, it cuts down your options, especially with lists. You'd have a similar problem when you got to D.

Going forward, you could either use lowercase letters, i.e. a), b), c) etc., or you could put a space in between, i.e. A ), B ), C ).
