[Closed] so..F1 Monaco (usual spoilers etc)

monaco night views are jaw dropping in HD!

Reckon with all the changes there will be some actual racing in Monaco for the first time in years.

Is Monaco still a difficult course on which to overtake?

Could be.

Webber to mess up his start as usual, Alonso to sneak through.

Lewis is in 9th, due to poor strategy for Q3. I expect him to be right wound up and want to make up as many places as possible. That could prove exciting.

It is starting to get a bit boring now though, if Vettel keeps on winning. S'why we need yer Alonso and them to get in the mix, make things more interesting.

Vettel will probbly win today though. He's in the best car and is one of the best 3 drivers in F1 right now.

Hopefully Bernie will have arranged a Vettel DNF to keep the show alive a bit longer ,If fingerboy wins again he will be too far ahead imho

Need someone to get ahead of the redbulls at the start. Hamilton is due a good start as well - hopefully he'll make up some places by the first corner. Again though it's going to be all about the rubber!

i'd like to see an Alonso win, best driver with worst car?

They are making a good point on the box about the safety car, could well see him out today.

I'm rooting for the Elderly Teuton. Age empathy and all that...

Hami is making me nervous! Can tell he's fuming under that visor!

Edit: hell yes!!

Overtake! I don't think I've ever seen a proper one like that at Monaco before.

WHAT A PASS!

pass of the season so far hammy v schumy?

Barrichello - revenge served cold...

The Elderly Teuton is going backwards 😀

More overtaking!

No overtaking my arse!

passing at monaco, thank you pirrelli!!

Next thing you know, he'll be overtaking me.

No.

(although it's not the course that's changed)

thank you pitstops! woo!

Oops, Red Bull messed their pit stops up a bit there...

Button will be in front after those dodgy red bull stops...

Button FTW!

Pit team now looking forward to the post-race washup.

shite, seems that it's messed up Webber far more than vettel

shite, seems that it's messed up Webber far more than vettel

hamilton?!?!

Pit fail

Nice to see some poor pit stop empathy there from McLaren...

They're all in this together...

bloody hell, safety car is going to bugger up button, presumably a penalty for hami... Doorknob.

Hami is a pillock. Will disadvantage up his team mate as well now.

He left it too late to shoot down the inside

Hamilton is turning into a right obnoxious stroker. I think his ego will take away some of his talent. Waving his arms at everyone on the track. Guess they are supposed to get out of his way..

Definately getting stressed this season

He's a hot head, was obvious he'd be like this after what happened in quali. At least he's exciting to watch 😆

Go JB

Well, Hami didn't touch Crasher in the tunnel....

JB chewing Alonso's arse. COME ON!

1 2 3 line astern and closing

best finish for years in the making

Only because Vettel's holding him up... 😀

waiting for some tyres to wear out...

Interesting comment about banning them using the exhaust to help with rear downforce - that will surely reduce the advantage of Red Bull.

😯

Bah - safety car gives Vettel the win 🙁

The beeb haven't followed Webber, but he must have been driving out of his skin to get back up to 5th.

If they pit when the safety cars out, do they rejoin in their last position?

Dont the bbc/others only use the pictures streamed to them from the circuit cameras?

Red Flag....

well that's disappointing.

Hope Petrov is ok...

What a disappointing finish

Resumed! Go go go

Not quite...

race back on

hoorah

They're going to finish!

Good call keeping LH out with a broken wing by the looks of things.

can they change tyres when red flagged?

apparently so... that changes things 8-(

Nobody knows...

Another good advert for the Hans device today. The angle Petrov hit the wall is exactly what it's designed to help with, it's also the same angle the Dale Earnhart Snr hit a wall after campaigning against the use of them.....

Changing the tyres really spoils the race 🙁

Grrr - total anticlimax now. Never mind 🙁

Could be some do or die dives for victory though....

The only person who doesn't need a victory is the one at the front. Could be interesting, but probably won't be...

Were they in a porn film or a race?

PMSL Samuri!!!!

😆

Race porn...

Going for the big finish.

Button's already dropped a bollock 🙂

Hamilton!

all that work by hamiltons mechanics

YOU TIT!!!!!

what a tube 😡

Ffs!

I'll rephrase: YOU [i]Parus major[/i]

smart move by webber

Crap. How was Vettel master of that race? How was it a champions drive? Had that second sc not cropped up he'd have been third.
