Alonso on the radio complaining that people are not making T10 and it's distracting him and shouldn't be allowed

They aren’t even trying to make it though. Just lazily missing it.Alonso on the radio complaining that people are not making T10 and it's distracting him and shouldn't be allowed
That racing bull is looking seriously good for this weekend. Not sure if Hadjar will be able to get it to the finish line though.
Could this be a strong race for Lawson?

Bearman has picked up a 10 place grid drop for the race and 2 penalty points for overtaking Sainz under the red flag in FP2. That's his weekend done already.

The drivers and teams report back on all the action from Friday practice at the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix in Monte-Carlo.

The trick is that Ferrari have to successfully complete 2 pit stops per driver.
It'll all fall apart when they're on Plan G for one stopping medium and hard tyres and the work experience kid reminds them of the mandatory double stop one lap before the finish
True. There will probably be too much checking.
Shame the FIA didn't do a trade for their utter farcical screww up last week.

I don't believe for one minute that Verstappen is actually going to be 10th on the grid but its Monaco and qualifying can be a total lottery
Every new driver has used that excuse.Bearman has picked up a 10 place grid drop for the race and 2 penalty points for overtaking Sainz under the red flag in FP2. That's his weekend done already.
"I knew I was close to the lights when they changed to red but I didn't want to brake quickly because it would have been dangerous and the car behind might have hit me".
etc etc
What screw up? Do you mean Bearman crossing the line after the lights showed the session was suspended and then getting upset because Haas haven't read the rules?

That isn’t beyond the realm of possibility, alas.
I’m a bit torn on the Bearman penalty. It seems overly harsh when watching but I guess the FIA’s point there is that there could have been a massive pileup right around the next corner and he wouldn’t have known. I guess these new drivers need a few of these lessons early on. Wouldn’t have hurt them to call it a 5 place penalty for the circumstance of avoiding the car on his right though maybe? Slamming on the brakes anywhere in Monaco does seem dangerous when on a flyer - was anyone following him?
He's not expected to make a full emergency stop, just to slow and not carry on overtaking.
