Jeremy Clarkson's nine-word post after the Monaco Grand Prix has gone viral.
The race was won by McLaren's Lando Norris, who finished ahead of Charles Leclerc and Oscar Piastri.
Prior to the Grand Prix, the FIA introduced a mandatory two pit-stop rule to attempt to improve the spectacle.

It didn't appear to have the desired effect, though, with several teams - starting with Racing Bulls - employing a strategy whereby one driver would drive slowly to back up the pack and allow the other driver to build up enough of a gap in front to pit and stay ahead.
That continued for the majority of the Grand Prix, with Mercedes' George Russell eventually driving off the circuit deliberately to pass a slow-moving Alex Albon.
The Brit received a drive-through penalty for his actions, which ended any chance of a points-scoring finish.
Taking to Twitter after the Grand Prix, Clarkson gave a clear indication of what he wants the FIA to do with the Monaco Grand Prix without explicitly saying it.

He wrote: "I know how they can make Monaco more exciting."
The former Top Gear presenter has consistently been critical of the Monaco Grand Prix.
In 2013, he described it as 'really not a thing for the real world', and urged the FIA to remove the track from the calendar earlier this year in a wider post about the difficulties of overtaking.

He wrote: "I've had an idea to make F1 more consistently exciting. Don't use tracks where overtaking is difficult."
Several drivers were critical of this season's Grand Prix and the new rule changes, with Max Verstappen labelling the race as 'boring'.
Russell, meanwhile, commented: "That's the only way [with the strategy] to score some decent points in Monaco.
"At one point, I thought, 'Screw it. I really don't care'. Because I was out of the points, I was going to finish nowhere. And I just wanted to enjoy driving in Monaco.
"I got 25 laps driving full gas in Monaco, and the ironic thing is, even with the drive-through, I finished higher than I would have done throughout the drive through."

"I've got a really good idea," he joked. "Every driver has a button that they get a chance to put the sprinklers on around the track, in qualifying or in the race. But you can only do it once in the weekend.
"One driver from one team, then. Clicks the button, and then the sprinklers come on. It spices the race up, you don't know when it's going to happen. It's the only solution!"
