Is it usually this way round for p1 on the bbc or is Monaco being special?

You mean practice being on a Thursday instead of a Friday?

Nah taking James Alan out the commentary box on the BBC (or I'm being silly and can't remember if him doing the fp2 practice in Spain was a one off)

nom nom engine blow for Kovalainen. Went in the tunnel, smoke everywhere!

Flibster · 24 May 2012 at 10:22

Don't see that often anymore.

PinkFloyd · 24 May 2012 at 10:22

Kova not picking a great space to stop there with a cloud of smoke. Surely you should stop on the outside! Not on the racing line in the tunnel. Lucky to not get nailed from behind!

Session over

tummelv · 24 May 2012 at 10:28

Kovalinen has been watching too much wacky races methinks. Trying to lay down a smokescreen in the tunnel!

khevolution · 24 May 2012 at 10:42

that is possibly one of the worse place for an engine to go, j'aime said about how kovalinen should have stopped straight away, i wouldnt want to stop in the tunnel, with smoke bellowing out everywhere, would of made driving in the tunnel impossible, i think he stop in the next best place

Heikki blew and engine with about 10min to go which got the session red flagged and Kimi didn't do any running due to them sorting out his steering.

So, Fauxtus are claiming that this is Lotus' 500th grand prix.

Errrrrrrrrrr.... has anyone pointed out to them that the 500 milestone was passed 2 years ago? Or you could even validly claim that it with Team Lotus last year.

This is Lotus' 6th Grand Prix.

Mr Men · 24 May 2012 at 11:52

Good start to the weekend for the boys in red, hopefully remains this way
