At a long distance it's hard to tell

[isaidno]

do all the European races start at 2.10pm this season ?

[The Bear]

All of them start at 10 past the hour now. Can't remember the reason why. More time for national anthems or advert breaks or something.

What the hell is Grosjean doing flooring it coming back across the track like that? Numpty.

think he probably thought he could hold it as he spun out but ended up screwing it up. Think he knows he done wrong given he apologised straight away on team radio.

 

Amazing and thankful no-one seriously hurt though! Especially with how many cars could have gone careering in to Grosjean in amongst all the smoke and the fact he's come directly in to all the traffic.

You make it sound like he drove across the track on purpose. He lost his back end and tried to hold the spin. As Brundle said it becomes like a pendulum effect. Driver error yes but just one if those really, part and parcel of lots of fast cars in the same place jostling for position, when someone makes an error there's likely to be contact with others.

Grosjean should try his hand at stock car racing.  Entertainment guaranteed.

Grosjean has a 3 place grid penalty for Monaco, and 2 points on his licence.

[The Bear]

Completely deserved too.

Apart from the chaos at lap one today was pretty boring when comparing to the previous races. Monaco will be the same too. Roll on Canada

[Stinkenzo]

Shocking race

Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa to test for Red Bull.

So these hypersoft tyres are capable of doing SEVENTY SEVEN laps around Monaco according to Pirelli?? If that’s true, tomorrow’s race badly needs rain. The only real interesting part of the Monaco gp is pit strategy, and if those tyres can go the whole race, then it will simply be a case of whoever pits first will be followed in by everybody else.

Verstappen crashes again. Almost identical to his crash in 2016.

[stix]

Ricciardos GP to lose. All about the start. Hamilton needs to beat Vettel to T1 or I fear neither will finish the race. Gasly played a blinder to get to Q3, Haas surprisingly shít. Verstappen has his work cut out. 

 

I just hope that tomorrow isnt as boring as I think it will be.

No real movement at the start, unless someone walls it then it's race over 

[urban.spaceman]

19 laps in an nothing has happened. 

[VinceNoir]

Just as boring as expected. It’s the same every year. It’ll only get interesting if there’s a SC towards the end.

They should be showing more of Verstappen and the midfield. Boring bastards don’t really help themselves filming Ricciardo going round and round. Verstappen has made up 10 places so far and I think we’ve seen 3 of them 

[Facecloth]

Something happened!!

[SouthStandUpperTier]

Monaco GP is an anachronism. Needs to get in the bin.

[EastAnglianFox]

That was shite ?

[m4DD0gg]

LOL vettel drenches the princess of monaco with champers

[foxes_rule1978]

This race needs to be scrapped, it is so boring
