I would love to see Kvyat beat Verstappen this weekend.
I wonder if TR's pace will keep up. Looking great so far, but it's hard to tell. VER seemed to be lifting a bit toward the end of the lap where he was around .150 up on KYV after sector 2.
edit: if he keeps it out of the rails anyway :p

Correct me if I'm wrong but this is the first FP1 and FP2 where Pirelli hasn't set the minimum tyre pressure limit way too high because they've been fed artificially high aerodynamic load data by Mercedes?

It would explain why Ferrari is competitive straight off the bat rather than them clawing it back for FP3 when Pirelli has adjusted the limits.

Vettel is looking on form though.

Yes.
It doesn't make much of a difference by qualifying/race time, but that seems to be the case every race so far.

Haha the tweets.

"I don't know why Stroll is seen as a crasher."

Might have something to do with him crashing all the time.

The best part about Stroll's crash is that it happened at the casino corner.
"Billionaire kid crashes extremely expensive car into wall next to a casino" is a headline made in heaven.

Toto said they've chosen wrong set-up for FP2.

I mean, that's kind of obvious. They were notably worse than in FP1.
 
So, I was thinking to myself, when was the last time Ferrari actually won the MonacoGP, so I looked it up.

Anybody wants to venture a guess (NO CHEATING!)?

Who said F1 games are not realistic?

“I’m going to look at the little areas that I need to improve on for Saturday – corner eight [Portier] and the last corner are the two places I really need to improve on.

“It really pisses me off, because every time I play the PlayStation game, it’s always those corners that I couldn’t get right, and in reality it’s still those two corners!
