I'm driving back up to my house in Norfolk tonight so will have the whole weekend alone whilst doing some decorating around the house. Kids will be with their grandparents and the wife is staying here in Hampshire for work... will have this on in the background for sure 
Nice to see Brundle back this weekend, Button as well

Pity it couldn't rain a couple of days later.
Mostly because they slapped the sticking plaster called "DRS" over it and called the job a good 'un instead of fixing anything; but also because they wanted to ensure that F1 stayed faster than other racing formats and whilst these barges are rubbish at racing they're hella fast round a track.

It doesn't produce great races these days, but man do the cars still look fantastic whipping through these narrow streets. The McLaren special livery is looking sharp too.

Unless it rains of course...
Might get some rain later; the F2/F3 practice yesterday was "interesting" in the wet!
True - that Gulf Oil one before was lovely as well!
Scary; I don't think I've seen anything like that before - doesn't bear thinking about what would have happened if they had collided

That was a shocking moment. Why weren't the marshals on the outside of the curve waving yellows? But there were yellows prior to the tunnel so he should have slowed.
Looks like the runners in the second group will have a substantial advantage over these guys judging by the rate of improvement.
I know right, same! That would have been horrendous
Yep! I think the screens were flashing in the tunnel too, but he just kept his foot in.. Dare I say if he collided I think we would be doing a 2mins silence tomorrow.
I don't remember seeing anything quite as close as that before in the tunnel, mental!

I don't think it would have been fatal, corner to corner contact and some distance before they hit the walls, but it would have been very nasty. Injuries very plausible. I think the closest incident I can remember is that restart in F1 in Mugello 2020 when Giovinazzi went into the back of KMag, but F1 cars have a lot more at the back than F2 cars.
The Monaco marshall's efficient as ever; it makes you wonder how some of the marshall's at newer races actually get anywhere near the track

very scary
That's a ridiculous reaction speed!

It's the fact he didn't bin it in the barrier. Tweaked just the right amount, impressive.
