I'm wondering what plans Ecclestone has up his sleeve to make it even less interesting than it is now.

Could this be the worst Monaco Grand Prix ever?

Let's face it, at best Monaco is usually a big snooze so goodness knows what it will be like this year.

Silverstone was fantastic this year, not the best of races but the whole weekend was pure entertainment!

Oh dear, what's this... Ferrari giving orders to instruct one driver to finish ahead of another?

Perish the thought ;)

The tire thing was with Force India or somebody... one of the bottom level teams.

The two drivers hit each other on the opening lap and both had to pit. One of the tire changers got it backwards and put the first car's tire on the second and second on the first. So one had 3 prime and 1 option and the other had 1 prime and 3 option. Which is very illegal. They said during the broadcast that they could have been disqualified on the spot.

Alonso is the most selfish, brattish driver ever. I mean he was crying over the radio for team assistance when if he was that much better than Massa he should have overtaken him.

That was the 1 year anniversary of Massa nearly dying for the prancing horse, I wanted him to win and Ferrari showed their true values by not giving him a proper shot.

Anyone else think that Vettel is a menace who needs to go back to driving school and learn how and when to overtake?

He has taken more drivers out in his first few years than most do in their entire careers. Right now he is supposed to be a title challenging wonderkid yet he is so rash and unprofessional when it comes to overtaking, I would even call him dangerous.

I saw you had posted in here...

I hadn't watched the race yet so I waited to read it.

I just came in here 28 laps in to watching it after his 2nd incident to say a very similar thing.

I thought he was great early on in his career, especially after his performance at Indy his first time out. But, now he seems to have a bit of a bad streak of petulance at times and I think his early success has gone to his head.
