Here's Kevin Magnussen's idea to improve the racing at Monaco

"This will be my 11th Monaco Grand Prix," says Hulkenberg, who is thus truly one of Formula 1's veterans. "I've watched the race many times growing up. Monaco is iconic, it’s all about tradition; the palace, the hotels, and many places that still have a dress code to be able to get in. The history and the heritage there, everyone embraces and respects that, which I like."

Hulkenberg relishes the challenge Monaco presents

Who knows, maybe Hulkenberg can surprise us, as he has done many times in the past. With the Haas VF-24, he has six points this season. "There’s always a bit more focus on qualifying here in Monaco. But it’s the same every weekend, from scratch you need to try to get a good feeling for the car, and the difficulty with qualifying in Monaco is that you really need to master the lap and put all three sectors together. It’s a ride on a knife edge and challenging every year and one of my favourite tracks to drive, I look forward to the ride and the challenge.”

Teammate Kevin Magnussen is equally as enthusiastic: "It’s the best track on the calendar to drive, it’s just phenomenal on these little tight streets with walls everywhere. The feeling of driving a Formula 1 car in Monaco, to me, is the best of the year. We know there’s no overtaking in the race, so it does feel now with all these other races where overtaking is pretty good and racing is pretty good, that it is a bit of a weird one because there’s so little.

"Maybe there could be more qualifying sessions or a Sprint to throw a curveball. The Monaco Grand Prix is a part of the triple crown, it’s one of those races where if you win that, it’s extra special, and having driven around there it’s so special, so I hope it stays on the calendar." Concluded the Dane.
