2015 Grand Prix de Monaco - All Results in OP

Didn't Williams have trouble at this track last year? I kinda seem to think they did.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Williams is shockingly bad here.

Not really it was predicted, they just don't have the aero understanding which is why they are usually beat by Ferrari and Mercedes. And why RBR and STR and even FI are having better speed as well as Mclaren. These cars have good chassis structure but such horrid power units. This and Austria should show people just how bad the engine gap is currently.

Yeah cause they don't have the aero development.

13 and 16. Not very good no..

Yes, their Aero design is heavily compromised for Slower high Downforce tracks like Monaco and Hungary for more competitive speed at the higher speed tracks like Spa etc.

Spots of rain are being reported at the Energy Station.

It's raining... how bad will it turn out to be?

EDIT: @NW48 ... I'm just going to put "^^^What he said" for the remainder of this thread

This is going to make Q3 very interesting :-)

 

[TenEightyOne]

Teams scrambling to get out and set a lap...

I'm just on the ball a bit more than usual. Normal service shall resume tomorrow for the race.

Hamilton sets a 1.15.304 for pole so far.

 

[TenEightyOne]

2.498 seconds across the top ten as they start their second runs (Perez excepted, out of tyres), that's quite a large gap for somewhere like Monaco.

 

[MHPALA]

Vettle wobble. Maximum heat.

 

[NW48]

Hamilton scores Pole followed by Rosberg then Vettel and Ricciardo

 

[MHPALA]

That was anti-climatic.

 

[JockeP22]

Monaco seems more narrow than ever from the on-boards.

 

[mustafur]

Got to say Perez did a good job there.

 

[TenEightyOne]

Good job from Hamilton, Rosberg turns another right-front into a fifty-pence piece...

 

[Vinylshark]

yeah he pulled over for massa during his hotlap and just basically gave up. I think he messed up in S2 somewhere.

To be honest, even before the weekend I was expecting that Williams wouldn't be strong in Monaco. They don't really build their cars for such slow tracks.

[mustafur]

The gap between Sainz, Maldonado and Verstappen is tiny!

.036 between 8th and 10th.

 

[ShiftingGears]

Excellent result for Ricciardo.

 

[Pete05]

Excellent result for Ricciardo.

The honey badger is driving his nuts off this year for not much reward The way the Red Bull gets off the line, he'll probably be 10th by the first corner

Nice to watch GP2 on this track too. They are fast those cars and close racing and i like how they sound.
Will hate to see if Hamilton stays in the lead and no passing possible.

I would be very surprised if There is a pass for the leader after T1.

Monaco is a track that would certainly be better off with refueling, as they would have to drive as fast as possible to make sure they clear the slower drivers(as running high fuel will likely make you qualify worse).

Right now the leader tends to just crawl to save tyres for an attack lap when the person behind pits, their worn-in Tyres will always beat the newer cold tyres(as proven last 3 years).

Tomorrow is going to be a bore fest isn't it?

Yeah lets hope for some rain or safetycars to make some unpredicted action....otherwise it could be a long one...fingers crossed!



Spy.

 

[Peasantslayer]

According to the forecast I'm using there's pretty much no chance of rain and I haven't heard it being brought up much in commentary.

 

[Dennisch]

As I said, we don't need rain, we have Maldonado. And he is in the top ten to screw things up!

God help the drivers around him. They're gonna need all the help they can get.

Don't count out Perez as well!
