Meh - Monaco is the worst "showcase" race in any pro racing series. Passing opportunities are so minimal, qualifying is the real race. The real attraction to this event is the "glamour" and pagentry of rich people. Kind of like a fashion show.

PS: The reason why you didn't see it on SPORTSNET is that it was broadcast on TSN....

That aside, it's good to see TK win, a bit of redemption for his prime years being in the superior CART series (I still hate you and the IRL Tony George). Sadly, "IndyCar" has a long way to go to gain it's lustre from the pre CART split days.

Bummer about Hinchcliffe's bad setup all day long.
