    More Penalties Than Overtakes 🤦 - 2026 Monaco GP Review

    The 2026 Monaco Grand Prix had more penalties than overtakes, and we're not exaggerating. Pit-lane speeding chaos, Gasly's lost podium, Russell's drive-through farce and Antonelli's fifth win in a row, all unpacked. In this episode, Tom and Chris work through a Monaco GP defined by the stewards: the pit-lane speeding saga that caught five drivers by fractions of a km/h, why Tom thinks Hülkenberg's hairpin penalty was completely wrong, Mercedes' communication meltdown over Russell's penalty, and Cadillac throwing away their first-ever points. Plus Hadjar's debut podium, Racing Bulls' best-ever day, the Brembo brake row, and a look ahead to Spain.   ❤️ Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/backofthegrid 🏁 Play our free Prediction League: https://backofthegrid.com - Score 5/5 for a perfect weekend and there's a prize! 🏆 0:00 – Intro: a race defined by penalties 1:53 – Pit-lane speeding farce (five drivers, tiny margins) 14:01 – Russell's drive-through & Mercedes' mess 19:00 – Hülkenberg's hairpin penalty 25:30 – Perez & Cadillac's lost points 30:15 – Stroll's track limits & brake trouble 31:52 – Hadjar's red-flag investigation & the rest 38:38 – Antonelli's fifth win in a row & the title picture 42:29 – Leclerc's crash & the Brembo brake saga 47:09 – Verstappen's race over before it began 48:32 – McLaren's off day, Piastri P4 & Norris' engine 51:12 – Racing Bulls' best-ever day: Lawson & Lindblad 53:46 – Driver of the Day 55:38 – Move of the Day 57:03 – WTF of the Weekend 59:10 – Prediction League results 1:01:11 – Spain preview: is the title Antonelli's to lose? 1:06:48 – Our Spanish GP predictions 1:11:14 – Inbox Back of the Grid is a Formula 1 podcast by fans, for fans.
