Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco 2023Formula 1

[Touring Mars]

Who ever gets on inters first, wins

That would be Stroll or Bottas... Ocon on inters now; Verstappen hits the barrier - he will surely come in for inters

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Mercedes is all in on inters. They got it right. Alonso, not so much

 

[Touring Mars]

Alonso on Mediums

Alonso pits for inters, but he's blown it by changing to Mediums first

 

[PaMu1337]

That was surprisingly decent for a Ferrari double stop

 

[Grayfox]

Alonso fans and Alonso to team
Alonso had a chance to win.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Ferrari doing Ferrari things. Some things never change.

 

[Milouse]

Perez ignoring blue flags have cost a position to Gasly.

 

[PaMu1337]

This'll be full wets

 

[Touring Mars]

Stroll stuffs it and loses his front wing, and he was on inters... - he's out of the race.

Stroll out of the race.
As it should be.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

This'll be full wets

Let's go Alonsooo

 

[PaMu1337]

Was Haas just trying to swap a front wing while still on the jack?

 

[Grayfox]

Perez on wets

 

[Touring Mars]

Sainz: "What's the forecast?"
Ferrari: "Rain for 5 minutes"
Sainz:

-

Magnussen off on the full wets...

Stroll off too... which is impressive considering he is supposed to be out of the race

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Alonso off too...

Stroll

 

[Demon Drone]

Aston Martin needs to fire their weather guy. Putting Alonso on mediums was the dumbest call I've ever seen.

 

[PaMu1337]

They're like 7 laps delayed on replays, it got a bit messy

 

[Grayfox]

If it is slippery for Lewis, he should change to wets.

 

[Grayfox]

Did I hear that right?
He has not seen Stroll in a while?

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Aston Martin needs to fire their weather guy. Putting Alonso on mediums was the dumbest call I've ever seen.

Definitely, he could've stayed out on the hards to see if the rain intensifies before committing to the mediums. As it was they gave Max a free 20 seconds.

 

[PaMu1337]

If it now dries up, will the inters survive until the end?

 

[Grayfox]

Definitely, he could've stayed out on the hards to see if the rain intensifies before committing to the mediums. As it was they gave Max a free 20 seconds.

Or if he swapped to inters, he would've passed Max while max was trundling around.
And then his laps would be 1 lap warmer.

 

[PaMu1337]

Or if he swapped to inters, he would've passed Max while max was trundling around.
And then his laps would be 1 lap warmer.

He's less than 20 secs behind Max now. It could have happened. It was a bizarre choice to go for the mediums

 

[IforceV8]

Track is drying about 1 sec per lap.

 

[Milouse]

Aston Martin needs to fire their weather guy. Putting Alonso on mediums was the dumbest call I've ever seen.

Yeah. I could replace him.

Wait...

Weather radar shows very light rain, don't expect anything from those clouds.

Never mind.

Yeah, in the end they gambled wrong, but Alonso had the gap so he ended up where he started. I think there may have been some worse strategy calls elsewhere. But to me if they wanted to stay on dry tires, it seems like they could've stayed out longer on the hards. That's the advantage of the hards, you can run longer and see if any opportunities rise up from a safety car or need for wet tires.

That's the bizarre thing about it. Switching to inters made sense, staying out made sense, switching to mediums made no sense at all

Should shake up GTPFF1 a bit this week. Hope nobody just transferred Stroll in...

I will swap out Guanyu Zhou and replace him with Stroll

I would like to swap Sargeant for Stroll.

 

[PaMu1337]

Should shake up GTPFF1 a bit this week. Hope nobody just transferred Stroll in...

Long term it will still pay off I think. Worst case I gained a token

Did someone from Ferrari's strategy team move to Aston Martin recently?
