Very VERY interesting!
yeah I saw that on the F1 report on Sky, his car had rubber down the top of the sidepod and across the top of the halo!
Mercedes have asked the FIA for clarification regarding the turbo and if the oil used for the turbo falls under the oil usage regs, and it does. I think Mercedes knew this, but they suspected that Ferrari were using turbo oil to gain extra bhp, hence all the smoke. I except Ferrari to be back off the pace for the rest of the season as they can no longer use this loophole. - https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/mercedes-query-oil-consumption-debate-1040317/
Can't remember him winning anything!
that's because he never won anything.
I only watched the highlights and blimey there were not even highlights!
So what do we get from this year's Monaco then? The twat has once again proven to be the most consistent driver on the grid - in crashing that is - taking this time the whole thing to a different level, crashing in practice, at the same place he crashed back in 2016. He is definitely learning, 6 out of 6 this year, sweet.
That made me chuckle by the way;

The race been boring takes nothing from RIC, he was simply brilliant, good story.
HAM on the radio apparently whinging non stop again, good thing he suggested a different format bless him, exactly what he did when he won...not.
Scary brake failure from the Sauber, superb response from Leclerc even though the nasty outcome was unavoidable.
Best thing of the day had to be Vettel jumping the gun on champagne war surely lol
that 'drinking from a shoe' is so disgusting.
vandoorne finally expressing his discontent of being the clear #2 at mclaren. about time.

As for the Stoff, it's pretty obvious isn't it? Who knows mate, maybe Alonso will clear off at the end of this season and he'll be team leader with Norris as an understudy...
Didn't bother with this one, I never do.
Didn't bother with this one, I never do. The podium was decided in quali. Yawn. Outdated race which needs to be either removed from the calendar, or turned into a non points-scoring gala event.
i'd like that. i mean, alonso is a hell of a driver but his influence within mclaren is just big. the team gives the impression they'll do anything to keep him happy. not healthy long term, imo. and norris looks like the real deal ... but then again so did stoffel.
i read a story in a belgian newspaper that mclaren brought two updated front wings to monaco. one for alonso and the other ... also for alonso. the new one doesn't look that different to the old one, but it does flex a bit more and makes the car feel a bit more predictable. don't know if the story is true, but it wouldn't surprise me if it is.
