You'd be a bit miffed if you had a nice beach front property that isn't going to be in a couple of years time!

If it isn't a track extension....

[Big Kev]

Lowes hairpin top left on that diagram. It'll be interesting if they've thought about the layout of the island roads and how it could extend the track.

[Bails MacKenzie]

Doesn't look connected, but there is a load of potential to add more track now. If only they could shuffle some of the buildings back too...

[Big Kev]

Mick Schumacher trying a pass that was never on in GP2.
I don't think he's got 'it'. He's more Ralf than Michael!

[Duke]

While I don't disagree Kev, I do think it is a bit early to say so yet. Mick seems to have the pace & talent to compete at the pointy end of the current F2 field.
While this incident was clumsy & deserved the penalty it wasn't malicious or necessarily caused by lack of talent.
Just look at Latifi who did the exaft same thing & was lucky to not have caused a 2nd red flag. For someone who is arguably the championship favourite with 3 years of F2 experience it does show how difficult & challenging Monaco is.

Interesting to read even the Marshall's cocked up the red flag / restart procedure resulting in the confusion of many cars recorded as 1 lap down.
Even more surprising to see Ghiotto being penalised post-race, loosing his 2nd place result.

Button tried a similar move in his stand-in race and he's a former champion

[w00dsy]

Schuey Jr pulled off a cracker pass into Mirabeau early in the race. I initially thought it his move on Calderon was overly ambitious but she went really wide before coming back across him, so I can see why he got tempted into the gap. I did laugh though that he was stuck in the same spot his dad pretend to be rubbish at a few years back. I reckon he's somewhere between his dad and Ralf. He seems to have a sightly more cautious approach normally.

[Big Kev]

Ferrari really need to sack their strategist!

[Dr. Pain]

They keep imploding with silly off track decisions and on track mistakes

[norbs]

This seems about right...

[Duke]

LMAO at Ferrari. They've gone backwards in all areas this year.
And once again my belief is confirmed that Vettel's 4 WC's flatters him. He has always made too many mistakes & continues to do so.
I also believe Bo77as mistake on his last run cost him pole. The little mistakes he has been making is costing him as he may actually be faster than Loowis this year. But he won't win the WC if he keeps making these types of driving errors.

[w00dsy]

[norbs]

Mad MAx. Jesus.

Another year, another slower car up front winning.

Stupid fucking circuit./

[Big Kev]

Always think someone needs to say to the queen of Monaco, blink twice if you need help

It's Monaco so it was pretty dull as it is most years. Leclerc might have done better if he'd just calmed it down a little. Canada next and it's one of Hamilton's best tracks! Ferrari need to start getting it together and fast.

[Big Kev]

close!!

[pab]

Idiots! There was a pedestrian crossing just 20 yards away!

[w00dsy]

Lewis the whole race - 'these tyres aren't going to last, guys, my tyres are gone'

Lewis after the race - 'i was never going to pit'

[w00dsy]

[Big Kev]

Yeah jeez he doesn't half bitch and moan about his tyres all the time and every time he still wins so you wonder why he questions it so much.

[pab]

Despite having everything, he likes to see himself as a victim who fights through adversity to succeed!

Despite having everything, he likes to see himself as a victim who fights through adversity to succeed!

Maybe it's because he's.................. from Stevenage.

[Dr. Pain]

Maybe it's because he's............... a Pom and that's what they do.
