Sebastian Vettel has won the Monaco GP for the first time in his career, ahead of Fernando Alonso and Jenson Button, both former World Champions and former winners. Red Bull were however lucky with a late safety car to make a risky one-stop strategy work.

Well, you cannot steer fully when on the brakes, so to stop enoguh you have to go pretty much forward. The space was not there to stop doing so so he would have hit.Gerhard Berger wrote: Brakes stop the car. They don't make you slide into people. He hit Maldonado anyway so don't know how it would be "much worse".
Maldonado couldn't give more space otherwise he would have gone off line (onto the marbles) and slid into the barriers.
If Hamilton wants to make a pass in that corner, he needs to be side by side with the driver he's passing.
And your point here is?HampusA wrote:You can´t outbrake another person because the guy on the outside will try to outbreak you which he can because his radius into the corner is much bigger.
Outside guy is on the limit of taken the corner.
You have actually said nothing at all, I asked you how you have to overtake then. Since most of the overtakes come in braking zones where the overtaking guy is on the inside you have to explain it to me how they do that if that isnt outbraking. The guy on the inside has the advantage of the apex, plus he will brake a bit later. It is just basic knowledge, in our world that is.Inside guy on marbles and smaller radius can impossibly brake at the same place as the outside guy and expect to take the corner as normal.
That´s A O in overtaking.
This is ridiculous. As I said before, if he just missed his braking point, what the hell is he doing in the middle of the track? Apart from that, the braking point is on top of the hill, jsut before you go down, he started braking there. You have to explain to me how driving way off line and braking at the braking point is 'missing your braking point'He missed his braking point and got lucky that Kamui noticed it.
I personally would have turned right into Webber.
I do not even know why the race was restarted, the rules state that if the race is red flagged when over 75% of the race distance is completed, the race will not be continued. This was far, far over this 75%andartop wrote:I don't think any rule needs to be changed. They simply should have ended the race when the red flag came out with 72 out of 78 laps completed.
Damage is way different then tires. They are allowed to change damaged parts in parc ferme too, but not the tires(for the Q3 runners).LionKing wrote:They let the teams to change their rear wing, of course they are allowed to change the tire!
According to someone on another forum, he actually said "maybe it's because I'm black, as Ali G would say..." and then snickered.Tozza Mazza wrote:F1 forum. hang on. maybe i made it sound bad.
Hamilton was asked by a journalist 'Why do you always get penalised'
He responded by saying 'Maybe it's cos I'm black'.
He said it in a way where I'm not even sure he was joking. He was absolutely incensed.
He was asked a question and he answered and that was a joke.Tozza Mazza wrote:F1 forum. hang on. maybe i made it sound bad.
