Great races. Toto got to celebrate his 60th and 70th birthday all in one race. Good the car died before they killed him. You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

1,000th start for McLaren in Monaco, expecting a special livery at least. Guessing that's cumulative with both cars The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Canada was supposed to be George's track, oops. He was looking over his shoulder all weekend. Until he wasn't. Monaco is supposed to be Charles' track, we'll see. Supposedly Lew stopped using the team simulator and rediscovered his mojo. It almost seems unfair that petulant Kimi is on track for a WDC but he's in a class of his own at this point in time. He's clearly vulnerable but who is going to exploit that? Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

 Was hopeful that these cars would turn up the excitement for Monaco... The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

I don't see that as much of an issue. They will still have the push to pass and the aero part is not significant at a track like this with no real straightaway. They may have been concerned about the curved tunnel section, otherwise I don't know why they bothered. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

I suppose so, and the speeds are, in general, lower. So maybe the more aggressive ramp down on power won't be as noticeable as it seems on paper. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

A very interesting Monaco qualifying. Too bad it's so hard to pass but the Ferrari's could make it up with another impressive run to turn 1. After that, strategy around the pit stops or pure luck is the only hope for an exciting race. Not sure what to say about George Russell. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

After Lap 1/Turn 1, expect a typical Monaco snoozer. The rest of the race is just going to be who makes it to the finish. | |||

Kimi did great, and i expect both Ferrari cars to make their usual great starts. A Kimi/Ferrari 1,2,3 would work for me The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Unless Kimi and Max basically stall, I don’t think Monaco has a long enough run to T1 for either Ferrari to get by. | |||

True, and Kimi hasn't had the best starts, to my recollection. Just a maybe that the quick spool turbo on the Ferrari might give a possibility of a run up the hill, as long as it doesn't end up as a Checo/Haas debris field. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

For a race with little action during the first 90%, the end was kind of crazy. Lots of head scratching for all sorts of reasons. The pit speed sensors seemed to be suspect and I hope they look into and explain the details of the violations. Lance Stroll looks like he’s just trying to see how bad he can be before his daddy would fire him. Russell seems lost. Kimi might have just be able to walk on water at this point. In a different league right now. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

On the Apple broadcast, they speculated that it was cutting the lines at entry and/or exit. I had noticed all weekend that they were cutting across the line near corner of Cadillac pit on way out. Coultard and Palmer were on that call and were puzzled and speculating about what was the cause. Their conclusion was it was more likely this on exit. The FIA indicated they think it may be the entry. The redneck in MS thinks....... both, perhaps!? Since the measures are time and distance between various sensors rather than any sort of radar this makes sense. It was bizarre, but if you go back and notice, the smart teams were staying WELL inside the lines the last pit stops. You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||
