Clever forward planning. Well worth trying, even if there's a suggestion of rain for the start.

 

[Limejuice]

Uh oh. Hammy's fallen over.

Clever forward planning. Well worth trying, even if there's a suggestion of rain for the start.

Yes, we were just discussing the rain and safety car implications, but it gives Red Bull some more options, could be a masterstroke we will have to see.

Oh no Lewis not again

This year, if Hammy didn't have bad luck, he'd have no luck at all.

Wow, Ricciardo!

If Danny Ric gets pole that really could have been a masterstroke by the team

Come on Lewis lets see some hammer time!!

 

[Limejuice]

Hammy out doing a lap. Can he throw something together?

Limejuice btw I did have a beer for you at the bar two weeks ago paid for by the Dutch who paid for a free bar

Wow Red Bull really are in pole position for the start of the race and with strategy

Splendid!

I fancy a beer right now.

I didn't realise it's Ricciardo's first ever pole. Excellent strategy, excellent drive.

I'd like to be a fly on the wall in the Ferrari garage

Very interesting quali.
Lots of discussions in Mercedes and Ferrari pits I should think.

 

[Limejuice]

It was always going to be a circuit that levelled out the Mercedes advantage. But Ricciardo's lap was something special. He nailed it.

The Ferraris went entirely off the boil.

The Mercs will whinge, but 2 and 3 on the grid - a bit of rain can sort that out.

Hammy's face, during the photo session for top 3 place, was thunderous.

I kind of hope there is no rain

I kind of hope there is no rain

Me too.

 

[pengaleng]

ahhhh I rung my dad when verstappen won and he was well chuffed

 

[yardbird]

It's wet in Monaco.
Fun and games.

Software or power-unit

Brundle said that they are suffering from vapourisation, engine gets too hot and the fuel evaporates and doesn't pump properly.

Max Verstappen's car's a bit broken.

Race against time to get it ready for the grid.

Toro Rosso changing power-unit for 2017
According to news reports Toro Rosso will be returning to Renault power next year, Tag-Heuer also reported they will be staying with Red Bull for 2017 and 18. In a statement Red Bull said the deal would involve the teams being able to badge the power-units as they wish.

So Danny Ric and Red Bull don't get to start on Super-soft

 

[Bungle73]

Looking like it might be a safety car start.

Please remind me not to look at this thread until after I have seen the C4 program!

True.

But with a safety start he's guaranteed to reach the first corner in first place.

Nope, I like highlights

Safety car start confirmed.

This could be a very boring race, Red Flag predictions? I think there could be one on the first lap and with-in 4 laps of the safety car coming in
