Poll: Monaco Grand Prix 2022, Circuit de Monaco - Race 7

[el_dazza]

Here we go then, 10 laps of trundling about.

 

[Emlyn_Dewar]

It is time to have a full rethink of what this sport is, if the cars crumble and melt every time there is a spot of rain.

 

[Slam62]

Not a shambles at all, just pragmatic

 

[Feek]

Looks like it’s stopped. Please can we have a proper start.

 

[Flibster]

Hamilton radio - Everyone take some deep breaths man and just cool down. I don't want anyone panicky for this race.

Utterly pathetic, F1 is turning into IndyCar

You do know they run in the wet in Indycar, right, often in far wetter conditions than F1? Just not on the ovals (of which there are only 4 races per year).

Was at Spa as Ted is just saying now.

Ah yeah I do remember that farce. However that wasnt what I was talking about though. I'm talking GT racing not F1, I remember watching it and being so annoyed, granted some parts of the track the visibility was quite low.

I think Emlyn_Dewar remembers what I'm talking about.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Please lets not get 10 laps behind the safety car until it drys out etc....

Will probably get more. Just let them get on with it. Up to them if they drive too quickly and crash.

 

[el_dazza]

Very heavy rain now. Watch them abandon this and sit in the pits for ages

 

[Psycho Ned]

Least the race hasn't started so they can't rob the fans of their money a la Spa yet.

 

[Flibster]

Latifi radio - I think it's almost gonna be better to not use the brakes and keep them on the edge of that cold bite like we had in Miami

 

[turbot1984]

Lethal if you ain't on pole.

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Honestly just get racing

 

[Flibster]

Ocon radio - At the moment there is too much water.

 

[Slam62]

Blame the weather, Croft and the sky boys moaning got it completely wrong, humble pie coming in.

 

[Junglist]

This could've been great had they started on time

 

[Flibster]

Vettel radio - Heavier rain now. And a lot of water generally.

Pit - Copy

 

[Finners]

Least the race hasn't started so they can't rob the fans of their money a la Spa yet.

If they potter about for say 10 laps won't they need to refuel the cars for a full race distance

 

[Feek]

Red flag.
Oh this is ridiculous again.
Wet weather tyres are for wet weather. Let them race.

 

[Freakbro]

If these aren't race laps and they expect the full race distance, what about fuel?
