Monaco 2019.

[Black_White]

Now becomes a tribute to Niki. A two time winner at this venue.
There won’t be much champagne sprayed this weekend.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

That's it. None of these elongated thread titles. Just the bare minimum.

I’m a simple man.

(No Collingwood jokes please...)

 

[Black_White]

Sky F1 great start to this weekends broadcast with a wonderful tribute to Niki.

 

[happy_eagle]

I always forget about Thursday practice sessions at Monaco

Good early pace from RBR and Mercedes.

 

[hey shorty]

Ferrari would be sweating bullets. They look gettable by the midfield.

 

[happy_eagle]

Oh great, so Mercedes are now dominant at every track this year ?


The real race is saturday night. Sunday is a procession after Turn 1 and the only pitstop window

 

[NSWCROW]

I watched P2 on mute but was there any excuses offered up for Renaults " pace " ?

 

[hey shorty]

Not really, Dan said he was "surprised" by the lack of pace.

 

[drd23]

Looks like a number of teams/drivers have special decals dedicated to Lauda this race

 

[Black_White]

Ah Ferrari, the laughs just keep coming.

 

[Forward Press]

Ferrari are so shirtballs at strategy. Disaster.

 

[Flapjacks]

Well that’s surprising!

 

[juice t]

Italians are natural comedians

Gees Vettel knocking out leclerc was pretty insane to watch

 

[hey shorty]

Hulk out.

 

[Forward Press]

ADR again making it to Q3, outqualifying Hulk again too.

ADR again making it to Q3, outqualifying Hulk again too.

Seems like it was just yesterday we were saying how Dan hasn't adjusted to the car and it was concerning that the Hulk had out paced him.

It is now 5-1 in qually and the 1 race Hulk got him was Australia by 0.008 of a second

 

[Magma]

oh wow a mercedes 1-2 i cant believe it.

 

[Forward Press]

Vettel is just too error prone nowadays. Verstappen has improved but Red Bull is a notch below.

Hamilton and Bottas the only ones fighting for the championship this year.

 

[davis_756]

So Hamilton won from Bottas and Verstappen, cya in 2 weeks for a real race.

Daniel pretty much fighting Magnussen into turn 1 for 5th since Gasly should be dropped down the grid.

 

[Forward Press]

If Gasly gets a grid drop (which I expect), Ricciardo will start P6.

 

[davis_756]

Vettel is just too error prone nowadays. Verstappen has improved but Red Bull is a notch below.

Hamilton and Bottas the only ones fighting for the championship this year.

Bottas will always be the #2 driver, Seb should retire.

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Verstappen, in a RB, without Ricciardo as a team mate, in Monaco. Qualifies 3rd.

Fail!

 

[DamoESP]

Wont bother watching tomorrow. Merc 1-2. Yawn.
