But it will make some nice viewing tomorrow as Max slices through the field It depends on your definition of "slice"....... Cheers, Mick 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Ham did well to split the red cars. Unexpected. What happened to Vandoorne after doing so well in the practice runs? And the Torro Rosso's of Hartley and Gasley, they were very quick this morning in FP3! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he WRECKS another Car over the weekend, Marko and Horner will have faces like THUNDER by tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 If he WRECKS another Car over the weekend, Marko and Horner will have faces like THUNDER by tonight. Having said that, I hope he doesn't crash, as it will make for a great Race if he can get some Points today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tender Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Well done Ricardo, well deserved win, and Max did the right thing keeping it clean till the end, bringing in a few extra points Red Bull. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Storey Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Yep, it was strangely fascinating this time. Unusually, there was suspense, quite a bit of overtaking in the middle and the back anyway, pit stop strategy didn't work for undercuts, only one VSC and no SC, and the right fella won. Unlike previous years, you couldn't switch off and turn on again at the end, in case you missed something. Maybe someone does read this thread after all?

Andrew P Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) Well the Race may have been a procession, but I never knew who might win. Would Danny make it till the end? Would Seb make a lunge down the inside somewhere? Would Lewis's tyres last the distance? Would Valtrie get Kimi? Would Max go for it at the end? Yes, a procession, but an interesting one. Shame about Leclerc and Hartley at the end, but that made the final Laps even more exciting. Edited May 27, 2018 by Andrew P 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Jonboy Posted May 27, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 27, 2018 Bit of a master stroke from Danny in not just taking off like a scolded rabbit at the start and keeping them bunched. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieB Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Monaco is often the race where lesser teams do well due to attrition further up the field. Today however, it was essentially a clean race, so any performances were down to the drivers, not lucky breaks. Good results for Ocon and Gasly demonstrate the talent they have and augurs well for the future of the sport. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium njee20 Posted May 28, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 28, 2018 It underlines what a farce it is though that the leader can be 160-200bhp down for 75% of the race and not only win but not even face a single overtaking attempt. Pretty sure Ricciaado could win in my Golf if he was on pole! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobby Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Not sure how, they'd have to knock a few buildings down to widen it to allow overtaking, even re-routing it wouldn't do a lot of good, as the roads all around are narrow... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 So here's a question; What options does Danny R have? Merc will probably retain Valtteri, as Lewis and him get on well, and he is fairly consistent. Seb won't want him sitting next to him again, as he beat Seb fair and square in the Bulls, PLUS Danny won't want to be labelled as No 2 as Kimi clearly is. RB will probably have the Honda Engine, and to be fair, that has improved in both reliability and speed. Your thoughts please 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
