is there a way i can catch up on the last 20 laps??? I know i missed a LOTTTT and its bugging me so much.

Lesson learnt: extend recording time on F1 GP's

Perez is a dick. End of story, he's getting too over his own head in the past races.
He was good in Bahrain, i give him credit for that. But this is stupid driving.

And i like how noone mentioned the Grojean/Riccardo incident cuz Grojean bumping into someone is nothing special anymore. Hahahaha.

Perez did not give Alonso any room for Alonso to stay on the track so he was forced to cut... Don't exactly know what Charlie Whiting saw.

All these GP2 drivers need to learn a thing or two from the veterans like Lewis on Webber and Button on Alonso. They managed to pass without touching each others' cars.

Regarding Mercedes, looks like they are in for a lot of trouble for testing their 2013 car.

The kid tried too hard on a track that has no room to overtake..

Download the full race via torrent. Latter part of the race was rather exciting - definitely worth downloading and watching.
Lets be honest, a procession of cars from beginning to end is rather boring. At least some of the impatient yuppie larvae gave us some action, although some of the collisions were avoidable.
Rosberg did deserve the victory, no doubt about that. :toot:

Lol Grosjean blaming Ricciardo for the crash

Monaco GP: Romain Grosjean says Daniel Ricciardo at fault in tangle
By Edd Straw Monday, May 27th 2013, 09:56 GMT

Romain Grosjean believes Daniel Ricciardo was at fault for the crash that put both out of the Monaco Grand Prix and earned the Lotus driver a penalty.

The Franco-Swiss driver had a difficult weekend in the Principality, crashing twice in practice, failing to make Q3 and then rear-ending Ricciardo's Toro Rosso in the race.

That collision earned Grosjean a 10-place grid penalty for the upcoming Canadian Grand Prix, but he believes the crash was a result of Ricciardo being very slow at that stage of the race.

When asked by AUTOSPORT for his take on the incident, Grosjean said: "I was following him for 61 laps and he was really struggling with his rear tyres with a lot of graining and no more grip.

"I was close in the tunnel and got caught out by the fact that he was braking early in the middle of the track."

OPTIMISTIC DESPITE POOR WEEKEND

Grosjean added that he believes he can put a run of consistent performances together after an up-and-down start to the 2013 season.

"The first three races of the season were hard because we couldn't find what was suiting me in the car," he said.

"Now that we sorted that out, Bahrain was good, and in Barcelona the simulations said we were going for P3 in the race but then there was a mechanical failure.

"In Monaco, I missed out in qualifying and when you are running 14th you cannot do much.

"There were a few too many touches with the barriers, but we did improve the car a lot to make it predictable. [From Canada] it should be good."

god damn Mclaren.....

can you see this happening in the future?

(he's driving the 2010 car for some promo event)

^lol no way...it looks so weird... :pokerface:

he deserves an f1 seat back though

He deserves an F1 seat, more so than Perez. Can't believe one got the shaft while another got signed for Mclaren when they were only a few points apart at Sauber.

I agree, I think it would have been smarter for Sauber to retain him rather than give Guttierez a seat. Unfortunately it's all about business and he didn't have enough sponsorship.

But damn, a Japanese driver for one of the top teams? Now that would be something lol. For those that don't know, Kobayashi is competing in the World Endurance Championship which includes 24 of Le Mans with Ferrari.

didn't Koba get like $10million in donations to bring to a team? (mainly from Japanese companies iirc)

He did, but it was not enough to secure a seat at a competitive team in 2013 (so he did not want to waste all the donations). He said he saved it for 2014.

If Massa does not improve, I think it's possible that Koba will take his seat.

sigh Massa.... -_-

wow Bottas

haven't watched qualifying yet..

watchin da re-run later.... unless it hasn't gone yet

FML
what a noob move
missed all of Q3 cuz PVR didn't get it all and I didn't set it to record past the ending

Always have it set to 1hr after it ends, in case they suspend Qualifying(Red flags) :)

Such rookie mistake too... braking on the white line.

i know sigh i feel so bad for him because i was always hoping he'd end up being one of the best but nope :/

feel bad for Grosjean too don't think he'll last the season

I lost all hope for Mclaren this season:( 2015 Mclaren/Honda here I come!!

Feel bad for Grosjean? Nah.. he's a fucking prick

Massa, I can feel for more

If Hamilton can win tomorrow over Vettel...
:fullofwin:

ALONSOOOOOOOO

Was a pretty entertaining race, shame for Kimi :/
