A lot of mind games going on. What about Luzzi in 4th! *shock*

LMAO, Kimi parked where shumacher parked last year, what a coincidence!

hahhha a picture of both ferraris parked side by side was priceless, i guess raikkonen took the roflcopter back to the hotel straight after

What the hell happened to BMW in the final session?

Awwwww Kimi! Now I really, really, really hope it rains very, very, very heavily tomorrow. Bring on the monsoon!

You know that the race is in Europe, right?

Too bad Heidfeld is only 7th.

Outsourcing, outsourcing my friend.


On more serious note, I can't find a forecast which would promise sunny weather for tomorrow. High as 90% probability for rain!

Yeah, Monaco seriously needs rain to get rid of that feeling "why on earth did I just waste 2h of my life watching cars following each other without being able to overtake" If it rains tomorrow I for sure will be glued to teh television.... otherwise I'd rather do something more exciting...

Least we now know which driver out of the 4 isn't going to be a "Maailmanmestari" this season :sadbanana.
And it wasn't surprise to see that Coulthard is still a n00b. Isn't there a granny-series somewhere, so old folks like him could have a brum brum :eclipseeh.

as i understand it, both ferrari drivers stopped to read a small plaque.......

it read: "schumacher cheated here"

Funny how the past two races he out drove most of them from a low grid slot!
Obviously old men (under 40 is hardly old though) can beat most.

Anyhow, Lewis is about the quickest. Even though he qualied 2nd not 1st, I think he just about is a bit quicker then Alonso.

i think they are having trouble setting up the car well with the new aero package.

Or they were with heavy fuel load.

now its 80% chance of rain tomorrow!

It just looked awesome when they showed Hamilton going through that latter chicane. Maybe not fast but those controlled 4 wheels slides surely looked great. I hope that it rains heavily tomorrow, otherwise the race will probably be boring...

Too bad Kovalainen didn't get that quali right, Fisi being as high as he is must certainly bother... Maybe the Mklarenz will both dnf in T1, Massa spins on second lap when Rosberg puts some pressure on him. As a result Kovalainen wins, Räikkönen 2nd and Alonso 16th... *fingers crossed*

Didnt you read, ferrari requested that, that be their new pitbox.

I watched the second part of qualifying from onboard and made a splitscreen clip of LH and FA's fastest laps. It doesn't show much, only 25 seconds, but it does show that there still was some laptime potential left in the McLaren.

I'm gonna try and watch this one live if i can find a stream.

great video J.B. Is that hamilton lap the lap where webber held him up? he seems quite a bit faster in that video.

The 2 ferrari's parked at rascasse is comical



And another picture somebody made on another forum, hilarious.

from my gaming experience, that corner makes you want to brake late so that could be the reason for it. or not.

The reason for it was because he broke his steering on the chicane just before this turn. YOu can see him clip the right side corner/wall and his right front went all skewed sideways and was loose. He really couldn't turn it on that corner, this isn't some conspiracy. But quite funny that it is the same spot .

Someone mentioned the red of the Ferrari's too. I think they are using a more candy apple red in this race, it isn't a very bright bright red, this looks more metallic now... and I like it . Ferrari has announced this color in a press release, and you can read about it in news.

I just pray Hamilton can pull through in this race and win it, he needs a good start on Alonso.

If you want to watch a stream of the race, go downloat SopCast, and view the sports channels. At the moment there is recaps of qualifying, but there will be other channels up for the F1 race, as always.

although now it reads Marlboro all over the car instead of those stripes.

Because some countries do not allow the cars to have tobacco sponsors on the car, some do.

I'm hoping for rain too. I've set up the barbeque in my back garden - that's usually all we need to do in England to guarantee rain.

Yes I know, Monaco isn't part of EU so it can do whatever it wants.

Good idea, that usually seems to work

Porsche Supercup race which just ended was raced in dry sunny conditions.
But, cross your fingers as there might be light showers in the afternoon!

We havent had a wet race in Monaco since '97, would be nice to see one again this afternoon.
