Poll: Official 2024 Monaco Grand Prix Race Thread - Circuit de Monaco - Race 8/24

I blamed Magnussen 100%, until seeing that onboard. There's blame to be put on Perez.
This type of accident is exactly why we shouldn't race here, until they make cars smaller. It's a joke.

I see what you’re saying about Perez but the blame is 100% K Mag. Perez is in front and has the right to position his car the way he did. Why tf Mag kept his foot in where his car was approaching that kink up the hill is beyond me. Took out his team mate too

If they continue rather than so a complete restart, those who started on the medium tyre are looking really good as they can switch to the hard and they're done for the day.

If they started on the hard, oh dear.

Think it’s standing start again on the grid

Sainz lucky boy getting to restart where he was. Very lucky.

Let’s be honest though, that red bull has no business being back there. If he’d qualified better he wouldn’t have been near the penalty points world championship leader.

 

[scarps]

Standing restart - wonder if Sainz will be ready in time.

The wait we will have Red Bull will have Perez's car ready

 

[Flibster]

Leclerc, Piastri, Sainz, Norris, Russell, Verstappen, Hamilton, Tsunoda, Albon, Gasly, Ocon, Stroll, Ricciardo, Alonso, Sargeant, Bottas, Zhou

Was trying to hold out for the Indy 500 to break out the snacks and beer...

British GT @ Donnington red flagged as well, I'm bored!!!

 

[AlphariusOmegan]

Alpine really can't afford to keep Gasly and Ocon they really don't pair well.

 

[ZedPowered]

The flying cars rear left looked a bit bendy in the replay. Maybe it’s all good though?! Or they have time to sort..

Yea defo a tyre off the rim at minimum

Doubt you'll need it, someone at some point in the race will bin it and 'cause a safety car mad dash, there's a 100% chance of it!

I am replying to myself, as my prediction is yet to happen a Red Flag is not a safety car! Expect more action and 100% chance of a safety car.

 

[Flibster]

Race will resume at 15:44 local

BTCC Snetterton looks delayed as well.

It is daft the way they reset in situations like this. Lucky Sainz.

While we're waiting, here's F2:

Hamilton pit radio - Red flag red flag. Keep delta positive.,

Hamilton - Told you guys, told you guys.

I suspect he wanted to start on the medium tyre and change to the hards if there was a red flag early on. He was right.

I imported a height map for Monaco and parts of Nice for Cities 2. Well no idea how you can build anything on it. Even the flatter parts of Nice is going to be a challenge.
