Damn this thread, it's constantly crashing my iPod Touch!


There's been a few good reads about all this. Hard to decide what to think because when taking bits and pieces from various teams you really got to wonder if they are in fact catering to Red Bull.

i havent watched F1 for years, i dont like all the restrictions, and i dont like the over payed drivers. ( and i dont like Bernie ecclestone )

Moss - fangio and so forth those where drivers, ppl driving today should be called somthing else in respect to the real drivers from times gone by.

ALO showed that these tires can be driven. Let the drivers sort it out.

I think this Monoco raced sucked for the most part, not the best buy far.

They made the anouncing sound like it was something more than it was.

I am glad for Nico's win, but other than that, meh.

What'd you expect on a single lane race track...it's a street circuit
There was more passing in this race than the last 5 Monaco races combined. Compared to most Monaco races, I thought it was a pretty good one

Yeah, this was a good Monaco race. In fact it was good enough, that I'm watching it again!

**** Perez, he needs to go. Sutil passing cleanly was great. Roman!? C'mon!

The secret tire testing is pretty fishy. I heard the week prior was private testing with Ferrari, and guess who won that week?

I have seen better, guys who should be there come up to the top. I feel the top drivers just didn't have it this year at Monaco. Not all, but I have seen way better races in the past. Been watching F-1 since it has been on TV.

just me, meh.

Well, you know shit's ****ed up when on the last lap Vettel whips out a time 2 seconds faster than anyone else.

Another box he can check off: Fast lap of Monaco 2013.

somethings up for for sure, maybe there is a plan behind all this crap on this race, who knows. Part of the thrill of F-1, the mystery behind the strategy.

16.

I thought this was a good race, any passing on a course this tight is exciting. I wish I knew how Raikonnen managed to stay in the points, two places back with one lap remaining.

If you read the story, not just the headlines it's fairly obvious there was no competetive advantage in regards to tires gained by either team (other than 1k miles of car development). Other than not notifying the FIA and keeping the tests secret No rules were violated.

Grosjean...
