Seems like you have to do everything right off the track to have a chance of winning in this race, and get abit of rain and your laughing.

they where all going slow saving tyres, Alonso was going even slower and staying out turbulent air. It makes perfect sense.

It doesn't at the moment, the new tyres have less pace than the old tyres.

Webber, top quality no.2 driver!

oldbag · 27 May 2012 at 13:54

Its a story of tyre saving and very small amount of overtakes/other action.

Flibster · 27 May 2012 at 13:54

Really? Raikkonen and Perez under investigation? For what?

Jono8 · 27 May 2012 at 13:54

How is vettel suddenly doing laps a second faster with tyres that are 35 laps older!?

CaptainRAVE · 27 May 2012 at 13:55

Darn, nearly binned it.

Flibster · 27 May 2012 at 13:55

Drive through for Perez.

**** right off!

Skillmister · 27 May 2012 at 13:56

How can you even do a late pit entrance at Monaco? The entrance is in such a ridiculous place you don't have a choice

Flibster · 27 May 2012 at 13:56

Now starting to rain, so McLaren bring Button in to change to soft tyres.

And out behind Heikki again.

HAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!

CaptainRAVE · 27 May 2012 at 13:56

Lol, button, what on earth?

knip · 27 May 2012 at 13:57

Oh Kimi get out of the way!

Same reason Maldonado was able to win a race, one driver gets better tyres every weekend and FIA can make the season/title race more 'entertaining'.

different strategies and now the team have given him the ok, he's beaten vetts time.

Would be nice if McLaren could get something right once in a while. :rolleyes:

oldbag · 27 May 2012 at 14:01

Vettel has super vettaltyres that will go to the last 10 laps or something crazy.

Skillmister · 27 May 2012 at 14:01

Vettel half a second faster on 40+ lap old tyres.. How?

Purdy · 27 May 2012 at 14:02

Well the first corner was decent.

Jono8 · 27 May 2012 at 14:02

Lol, what a sham. Even in Monaco, you don't have to run in the third part of qualifying because of the tyres.
