Bottas car clearly doesn't have the setting whinge mode yellow 44 like Hamilton's car does.

Re: 2017 FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO
Considering Hamilton started the year saying the sides of the garage should not share data I wonder if he's broken that today!

Re: 2017 FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO
That did not look like a setup issue to me on Hamiliton's car - something was fundamentally wrong or broken on that thing, it looked like an absolute bastard to drive.

Re: 2017 FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO
Pat's reasoning sounds solid. Rather than springs and "setup" changes he thinks it's about the tyres and temps.
Lewis seems to be "fake sipping" on his branded drink anytime the cameras on him though.

Re: 2017 FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO
Nice idea to get Nando on the radio to Jenson before the start.
Alonso: "I am sure you don't want to hear my voice before you start but I just want to say good luck and I will be watching you here" says Alonso live from Indianapolis...
Button: "Aww thanks mate! I am going to pee in your seat!" says Jenson... charming.
Alonso: "Please don't do that!"

Put that track in the middle of a paddock and people wouldnt piss on it.

Re: 2017 FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO
It certainly wasn't the worst Monaco race there ever has been. I wonder how critical it will be in determining the DWC by the end of the year, Vettel winning vs Hamilton's 7th place...?

Fark that would be boring & must look so slow compared to what usually goes around there.

Put that track in the middle of a paddock you'd not have the barriers, and you'd widen the track.norbs wrote:Jamo wrote:It's Faaabulous Dahlinnnggg!

But then Tilke would probably be hired as the consultant and completely fuck it.
On a side, but somewhat related note, I've been wondering later what modern F1 would be like if you banned the aerodynamic elements. What I mean, is any element of the car who's sole or principal purpose if aerodynamic effect would no longer be permitted. The cars are required to still be an open-wheeled format, but any aero effect can only be obtained from the main body, struts, etc and not from wings.

Re: 2017 FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO
Well I enjoyed that one for a Monaco GP.
The strategic battle at the stops had me on the edge of my seat.
Super glad Danny jumped Max and Bottas, had to laugh at Max on the radio when he realised Riccardo was no where to be seen.
MAX: Has Danny pitted?
HORNER: Yes Max, he jumped us both
MAX: &#%@ sake, what a &@$%!ing disaster
Kimi also looked extremely impressed on the podium. Speaking of the podium, what a mess that was. Did anyone on the ground know what was going on with the procedures lol.
