Monaco is not Barcelona. Circut there is well know to be tyre chewer, Monaco is not. Also temperature will be quite low, so even supersofts will last much longer.

By repeat of Spain I meant Merc taking the front row but lacking race pace. That said expecting any sort of consistency with the current tyres is probably a flawed line of thinking.

 

[Sloane]

lol, Massa :/

Broken suspension?

 

[Adamm]

That car is wrecked, doubt he will be able to quality now.

 

[DrM]

He crumbled under pressure na na na nanana

 

[Risgroo]

Surely they won't get that fixed in time for qualy?

 

[Staab]

welp, time to change the predictions

 

[Juicy Bob]

Usually I'd post a snarky GIF after a Massa accident, but that crash wasn't funny. Glad he's OK.

 

[Adamm]

Looks unlikely. Change your predictions now!

Most positions gained will now go to massa!

 

[Adamm]

Oh dear Sutil =/

 

[Staab]

Aaaaaand Sutil now =/

 

[Risgroo]

Guys. Stahp.

 

[Double H]

Full speed onboard looked rough.

Suspension failure?

 

[FuturusX]

I suspect Q3 will not bring the usual cat and mouse tactics. Drivers will be keen to set a time in case the session is ended due to an incident.

[Adamm]

Sky sports is saying Massa had a broken steering arm

 

[DrM]

Looks like brake disc explosion or even suspension damage. **Edit: ^^^ beaten

well, it will be nice to watch Felipe battling backmarkers. Maybe SC tactic from Ferrari?

 

[DBT85]

1:14.3 from Rosberg. Damn.

 

[Sloane]

Aaaaaand Sutil now =/

Might have been a tire failure?

 

[DrM]

Everybody touching barriers

Lower track temps = faster RBR

 

[Adamm]

Grosjean haha again!!

 

[Staab]

jesus, romain, AGAIN

 

[Deadman]

Lol grosjean

 

[Risgroo]

Fucking Grosjean.

 

[DBT85]

Lolsjean it is.

 

[DrM]

Looks like rain washed all the rubber from the track

There is major damage to the left side of the Lotus, with another big repair job needed on that car.

Will he join Felipe?

 

[cmr-94]

Grosjean's just not up to scratch for f1 im afraid.

Session ruined by crashes

 

[Deadman]

Wtf was he doing, he swerved in to Hamilton

 

[DrM]

How many SC will we see tomorrow? 2-3?

 

[pants]

what a cluster fuck

 

[Addnan]

That was fucking random.

Spoiler

I like making gifs now

 

[DBT85]

Well he is allowed into that area, but as the guys are saying, it doesn't look like a normal line.

Looked too much like he was doing a Webber on Vettel after that multi 21 race and cocked it up.

Only just seen the Massa one, glad he's ok as that looked a bit like brown trousers.

EDIT: why are the Sky guys sitting under a blanket together?

Yeah it looks like he was trying to get back at Hamilton for something.
Did Hamilton hold him up earlier?

 

[cmr-94]

bet grosjean's mechanics are wishing they are on raikonnen's side of the garage

 

[DrM]

Chance of rain for 2 pm local - 45%

No idea, I got distracted in all the XBONE threads and forgot P3 was on Only tuned in with 8 mins to go.

 

[pants]

Let's see how my pics do this weekend, I dont want to lose places again please

Indeed, he seemed to suddenly change his line and try to 'buzz' the Merc for whatever reason.

While the crash did give me a little chuckle, I feel for his mechanics having to rebuild the car with only a couple of hours to go.

 

[DrM]

Sweet.

Just looking to the radar, there are several shower fronts slowly drifting from central France down towards Nice eta 2-3 hours. Maybe the Alps will deflect them from Monte Carlo, but anything is possible

 

[Shaneus]

He just always has that dopey look on his face, except for this year... until now. The script for the medication that made him normal must've been knocked back by customs.

We managed to set up our satellite to get RTL.

Couple that with BBC commentary and it works out better.

I've typically second-guessed myself based on FP3. New predictions:

I'm less confident than I was on Thursday that Rosberg can hold on for a win, but I'd feel mean changing it. For context: I have a 25% prediction accuracy on average so far this season. BOOM!

Welcome! Always great to have new people in here

SMFH at Grosjean. He IS very quick around here and would be a serious contender for the podium, but there's no way he will finish the race. Took him out of my predictions.

He's probably going to crash in quali too.

 

[Adam Scott Aukerman]

According to Jon Noble on Twitter, Massa's car won't be ready for qualifying, and even if it was he'd get a 5 place penalty for having a new gearbox.

Also Ferrari claim it was driver error.

Sky saying its starting to rain
