"Official F-1"....MONACO
 

I always miss this race as we are away that weekend...will watch for the replay....GO RED!!!:thumbsup:

GO FELIPE!!!!

This is always a tough race to predict. Qualifying makes all of the difference so that may wind up being the most exciting part of the weekend. It will aslo be interesting to see if there is a surprise performance from someone who has struggled so far ie Jenson or some other mid fielder.

I'd really like to see Kimi Raikkonen dominate this race. I still think he's the fastest guy in F1...hope he can pull it together at Monaco this year. How silly is it that reliable Ferrari broke down for him last race...if it weren't for bad luck, he wouldn't have any. Here's a good chance for Massa to show his stuff as well. If Hamilton wins, it will be fantastic for the sport. Here's hoping it stays dry.

I have never followed F1 but I will be interested to see my first race this year. The F1 just signed an agreement to stage a race here. It's going to be a street race like Monaco but also the first ever night race.

My office over looks the course.

sounds like a TFP party to me !?!....xoxoxoo:thumbsup:

I've seen one F1 race in person so far. I was approaching the track during a practice session and the sound alone was breathtaking. To actually see them in action was absolutely amazing. So much so that I can't wait to see another one.

Hamilton had a "wee off" at St. Devote in todays practice.

Dominant win for Alonso. Think its now safe to say Hamilton is the real deal. Massa strong. Raikkonen, if her ever gets his head out of his behind, could win races as well. Rosberg stuck in traffic...its called "passing" Nico. Yes, at Monaco...at least try. Great season so far. Bring on the night races.

EVEN MISSED THE REPLAY THIS YEAR....SOUNDED RATHER BORING AS A RACE...QUALIFING WAS THE KEY....NOW BACK TO TRACKS YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO PASS ON...XOXOXOO

Apparently McLaren is under investigation by FIA for issuing Team Orders which is illegal. They asked Hamilton to 'slow down'

From one of the interviews I heard with him they also made him pit 3 or 4 laps earlier than he had to when he was leading. We'll have to see how this develops.
