Ended up being a good drive by Webber but it was good to see Kimi on the podium again...the Monaco strippers would've earnt a bit last night :D

Anyone else hear the comment by N Piq after Buemi (however you spell it) pushed him off the course? Something along the lines of there shouldn't be young guys in F1....errrr bit like the pot calling the kettle black isn't it :)

Yeah that was funny as fk! :)

yep, it was good to see kimi back up the front and he did actually smile. it was amazing.

Webber looking solid. And about time Hamo gets shown up as a hack at Monaco, he has clipped every wall/armco at the place and always gotten away with it...not this time ;)

king oath. I couldn't believe them crapping on about his great win there when he slammed the wall and by gods grace was able to continue. it was a crap mistake and a big bag of luck that got him through that time. this time he got the result most people get at monaco when they like to run walls. ie an early dinner.

good to see webber outperform vettel. webber kept his head and was fastest man on track in the mid-late stages of the race. he was putting in fastest lap after fastest lap. still it didn't do much to improve his position, but you'd have to say it was a solid race from 8th to 5th. mckonken must have been on drugs when he was saying mark would get 3rd as they were about to enter the final round of pit stops. I have nfi how he thought that would be possible.

go webber, go kimi.

Like me he was probably hoping that the Ferrari's SS tyres would be used up quickly and allow Webber to catch/pass them in the remaining few laps. I think another 3 laps and Webber would have taken Massa.

Vettel has binned it in Qus, Malaysia and Monaco and is still 3rd. Goes to show just how variable the season has been with only Brawn being consistant.

And i have to say it, Webber's 2009 season is already a what if. What if Rubens hadnt clouted him in Aus, the race in Malaysia red flagged but re-started under pace car when the rain had stopped. I was there and the rain had all but stopped at about 5.15pm, so for 45 mins they could have had the cars circulating like they did in the GP2 race. Them you have Sutil in Bahrain...

Webber has been a bit ordinary in qualifying, but has not put a foot wrong in the races yet. He needs a few P1-3 starts, but that is going to be tough with Ferrari, Toyota and Brawn now all in the mix.

Come on Newey, bring out a freak update for the RBR cars ;)

seems impossible to over take, love massa effort at the beginning of the race, i think that cost him 3rd place :P

that was never going to stick; down the hill into the pool complex, hauling the car down from 290km/h and thought he'd make the turn-in before the chicane from the outside line. no chance pal. loved it when Rosberg just carved his arse up when he (massa) had to let Vettel back in front :cheers:

I thought the commentators had introduced their interviewee incorrectly... that's a stunner of a comment to come from a rookie who has done nothing so far, Piquet should pull his head in he is about to lose his drive in F1 because he's a complete hack. Too much ego not enough talent, methinks.

top race for webber. :cheers:

good to see ferrari back and challening.

monaco is a bloody boring race though. awesome place, but boring race.

yep.

monaco. awesome place... boring race....

qualifying is about as good as the race.

go webber, go kimi.

Hahaha and what makes me laugh even more is at the start of the race when Hamilton had passed 2 people Martin Brundle started carrying on like he's passed half the field already! f**king tossers

Yeah funny as! Brundle was saying "Hamilton now up to 18th! He's on a charge!" Yeah up one spot woo hoo!!

19 N. Piquet Renault 1:18.514

20 S. Buemi Toro Rosso 1:18.582

good to see webber really does have the race pace. poor old basti is way off. a number of reasons for that though I guess.

the chicane at monaco has to be one of the best in F1. watching them bounce through that change of direction you hold your breath every time.

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
