F1 Monaco

Yeah, Jarno said some stuff about how he was taking it easy the last few laps in the press conference.  BS.  All it took was one lapped car at a bad spot on the track and JB could have got past him.  Great race.

PS IMHO the low level camera shots of the cars coming through the end of the piscine (swimming pool) chicane is as good as it gets in auto racing.  I would give a nut to have a seat at that camera position.  Did anybody see the one where Trulli made like 3 corrections on the wheel, to get through there, all in like a half or a third of a second?

Monaco is my favourite circuit, quite simply nothing near it!  A guy I used to work with was fortunate to go over there and stay in one of the hotels overlooking the circuit.  Lucky bastige!

F1 is close right now. Some of the teams just need a bit of this or that and they could be winning. After watching Monoco I think some of the smaller teams cars are simply not as well constructed as teh top teams cars.

It was Jarno Trulli's first win, one of Button's best finishes, and a very subdued  Ruebens rounding out the top three.

Good drive by the top three considering Rubens had mechanical difficulties. Trullis car was hooked to the pavement, great drive by him. Hope he repeats it in the near future. Buttons/Bar-Honda/Sato has a good team this year. I think they can win some races.

Schumacher to locked up his LF tire in the tunnel behind the pace car, causing Juan Pablo to piledrive him. Now Schumi is pissed at Juan, Juan is pissed at Schumi.

Ya, that was strange.

And how about that bonehead move by Alonso in the tunnel?  LOL, he ruined a 1-2 Renault finish for Flavio.

Alonso is my new hero.

LOL, check out this out. Seems almost every driver is PO'd at someone today.

Poor Alonso, but that was a pretty ordinary manoveur...mind you I think Ralf had gear box trouble and was going fairly slow through what should've been flat out under the tunnel.

The quotes of the race:

Calm down. It's not my ****ing fault. I don't even know what he did. It's his **** up." - Ralf Schumacher about Alonso's crash

As you say in English, **** happens - Micheal Schumacher
