Kimi got a reprimand for going too fast under SC.

He joins Webber and Sutil as reprimanded drivers this year.

Jeez people. We've just seen a great race and yet people are still unhappy. My word. Who cares if some drivers weren't pushing? We still had great action throughout the field. How about instead of moaning you simply turn off the TV and go outside to play with traffic.

Agreed, he was never going to make a move stick from that far back.


Which is why Raikkonen should have given him the inside line and watched him fly across the chicane. Squeezing him into the wall was just as stupid as Perez's move, in my opinion. I thought Perez made some brilliant moves, as did Sutil. Great to see.


Glad to see I'm not the only one who sees it that way.

Perez shouldn't have been that optimistic and Kimi shouldn't have put up a half arsed defence especially if he knew he was going to crash into him (his words, not mine).. He gave enough room for Perez to slide in and then squeezed him right up the barriers.

To me, it was a 50-50 incident.

They aren't protesting the win, the FIA just decided to have the arguments heard by the stewards at Monaco rather than later during the week.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Grosjean gets a 10 place penalty, but Chilton got a drive-through?

I guess it's because Chilton was still running, whereas Grosjean wasn't. Doesn't seem fair though. Chilton still finished where he would have been anyway.

The point in giving the slowest Marussia driver a 10 place penalty is also questionable, I suppose ...

Surely that also applies to his Practice crash as well as his crash today?

It was bizarre how long it took Charlie to throw the safety car today too.
If that crash was worthy of a SC, why did it take over a lap to come out? (If not nearly 2)

It's all well and good trying to give us green races but you have to err on the side of caution, especially at a place like Monaco.

The car could be recovered under double waved yellows, like Bianchi's was.

However, the medical car had to come out, and that's why the SC also had to come out.

Chilton apologised but said he thought he was driving in a straight line...

Kinda worrying that he can't tell whether or not he's driving in a straight line.

Other than that complete moment of brainfade, I thought Chilton had driven quite well today.
