Quote from amp88 :Low quality cap from BBC Forum stream of the Williams smoke. Seemingly under control now.

edit: BBC reporting the fire was caused by a KERS explosion and that there are injuries but no more information.

It's called getting rid of the evidence

Pastor Maldonado, worst driver in F1, can only win a race when they slow everyone down with stupid tyres (or with whatever cheat they just torched haha ;-) )
go die in a fire.

Well Maldonado's car is in Parc Fermé so I'd like to know what they left in the garage that you consider to be what they cheated with :P

Cocaine laced weetabix.
5 different winners in 5 races, driving for 5 different teams. Did this ever happen in F1 history?

1982 maybe?
Williams were on fire today (literally), that's how you win a race, they controlled it and won it on strategy. I still think Maldonado is a numpty, but that was a great drive. Hamilton had a very solid race too.
Quote from CSF :Don't expect Lotus to be up there in Monaco, the car doesn't really seem to suit that kind of track.

I wouldn't expect Ferrari to shine as much either. When i saw Alonso's exit from last chicane few times, when he was just out of the pits, he always lost some time there. And Monaco, that will be nightmare for them.
@ Williams fire. It was Alonso.



Oh, the Irishmen and their magic.
Quote from CSF :Williams looked decent in testing. The Lotus went horribly at Monaco last year, so it's not an outrageous thought to think it will again this season.

That was due to the exhaust design though, it basically sucked on any tight track, im not sure if the track temp is Hot then they should be fast as that seems to be where the car is the strongest.

Yeah mismatched tires, and not allowed according to a Pirelli employee on twitter.

Looking further in to it seems like some teams just put their own labels over the pirelli ones...

Quote :“@ScarbsF1:@f1peter27 @PeterDWindsorI saw a few cars with the yellow rear Pirelli markings faded” Teams put their markings on over our label
