FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX DE MONACO 2010 (Monte Carlo)

So... was it any surprise that the qualifiers were pretty much unchanged except for Mr.Kubica. The Bulls continue to dominate & suddenly Mr.Webber is now a contender for World Champion. Red Bull is certainly in the frame for the title, but then again, it is still very early days.

Unfortunately, the rain didn't come but irrespective of my support for Ferrari, Fernando was pretty impressive coming from the back to 6th place, in what was (& I still maintain) a pretty crap circuit. It not difficult to imagine where Fernando would be if he had not decided to redecorate the sidewalls with Ferrari red just before qualifying!

Apart from Fernando's bump to the wall, of course we had a few others from both the Rubens & Nico H but the one that takes the cake would be our very own Lotus deciding to mount HRT! Maybe Chandhok's car looked too enticing for Trulli!!

The end was a bit of an anti-climax, apart from the late overtaking by Michael who have since been penalised. To be fair, it was the boss (Mr.Brawn) who gave instruction that the race is still on once the safety car goes in based on the new rules of 2010.

I think it was Webber who said it best, if only the bosses/FIA would stop screwing around with the rules & just go racing. I can't agree more.

Results for this week.
