F2's multi-car, first-corner Monaco shunt

A clash between pole-winner Alexander Dunne and Victor Martins, starting P2, resulted in a multi-car shunt on the first corner of the F2 Monaco Feature on Sunday morning. No doubt the recriminations will follow but in this video short Peter points out that the real issue is the pole at Monaco being on the right. For months now he has been suggesting that the pole-winners at all races - F1, F2 and F3 - should be allowed to choose on which side of the road they want to start. As it was , Dunne made a slow start in the Monaco feature race, Martins was quick away from the line - and, on the cleaner side of the road, was ahead as they braked for Ste Devote. Now in front, Martins assumed that Dunne would back away and give him room; from the pole, on the inside, Dunne never imagined that Martins would take the full racing line. Mayhem reigned. No-one was injured, fortunately - and the accident worked well from the perspective of Sebastian Montoya, who "started" from the pit lane under the yellow but magically found himself P2 at the re-start some 40min later...but the whole drama underscored the importance of the pole location being being selected by the driver. On the flip side of Montoya's break, Gabriele Mini was not allowed to restart even though his car was undamaged: he was merely stranded at Ste Devote with a stalled engine. America's Jack Crawford won the F2 Feature and India's Kush Maini the Sprint, providing Monaco 2025 with a truly international pair of race winners. The weekend will be remembered, though, for probably the most spectacular first-corner "carambolage" since 1980.
