If Kimi crashes out during the race do you find him sat on his boat next lap?

Lewis probably just walks home if he crashes.

I remember Monaco being such a pain in the ass in Gran Turismo 3.

Every version of Monaco in Gran Turismo is a pain to this day.

@drewbert@dannyodwyer since Japan is also a member of the European Broadcasting Union they could totally participate in ESC. It's a contest for EBU member countries and has nothing to do with any geographical regions.

-Rosberg screwed up in Qualifying. Glad Drew picked that up.

-It wasn't raining in 1988 when Senna crashed at Portier. He was being caught by Prost and Ron Dennis radioed for him to slow down; Ayrton lost concentration on Lap 65 and crashed.

Time stamp isn't working right, it's at 1h 45m 47s

-Tabac is tighter now. The entry to the first part of the Swimming Pool is slightly quicker; possibly less chance of hitting the wall on the runoff according to Button:

Good job Drew!

Still don't think Rosberg that did on purpose last year, but oh well. Also please don't remind me of Iron Man 2.

Love Monaco, so I'm really excited for the race already.

I love how archaic this track is. It doesn't belong, yet, it's what makes it special.

@troispoint: How is it archaic?

It's way too narrow. No one would design a track like this for today's F1s.
