It's Wet In Monaco

[Gunther]

You do not want to miss this. It is currently raining in Monte Carlo, and the Formula 1 race starts in about 2 hours from now. The forecast is for heavy rain all throughout the day. This is going to be one of those classics, like 1996 and 1997. You can see a live Monte Carlo webcam here (it updates once a minute). The grid is as follows:

1. Massa
2. Raikkonen
3. Hamilton
4. Kovalainen
5. Kubica
6. Rosberg
7. Alonso
8. Trulli

My bet is still on Massa to take victory. Everyone feel free to put up your predictions for today.

 

[Gunther]

It's insane how the clouds are moving in over the circuit. Have a look at the webcam to see. 10 minutes ago it was almost clear.

 

[WiseCrack]

Going to be a humdinger!

 

[thedutchman]

F1, woop woop, cant wait for this one... have been looking forward to this race for donkey days.... GO MASSA, GO MASSA, GO MASSA

 

[Gunther]

Going to be brilliant. I just hope we don't lose any of the front four at the first corner. Anyone remember Schumacher smashing his Ferrari into the wall on the first lap in 1996?

 

[WiseCrack]

Nooo Go Lewis!!!!!!!

 

[thedutchman]

no i cant, but i can remember ralf hitting the wall when he came out of tunnel, that was ralf , hey ?

 

[Gunther]

Yeah Ralf went into the wall about 2 or 3 or 4 years ago.

 

[nic777]

I cant make it to a TV in time to watch it

Does anyone know where I can watch a repeat later tonite?

Shockingly, the online DSTV guide says it nothing about a repeat but they used to show repeats right?

 

[Gunther]

No repeats that I know of. Sorry..

 

[thedutchman]

luckily it stopped raining there now,

 

[Gunther]

Luckily? Lol.

 

[Gunther]

Clouds are moving over the track again.

 

[killadoob]

hope its a rain dry rain dry track

 

[HavocXphere]

There is a repeat at some insane hour. Don't know when though.

 

[Gunther]

Haha. Massa beating everyone in the rain, Raikkonen crashing.

 

[thedutchman]

hamilton in front

 

[thedutchman]

stupid raikkonen, whats his story.... why isnt he performing ? maybe because he sucks

 

[thedutchman]

this race is taking forever... another 22 laps... hamilton has to have an accident, dammit !

 

[killadoob]

no i think hamilton deserves this

he was super fast

a bit of luck to still be in contention what with the safety car making his mistake meaningless but since then he has been on it and it been a magnificent drive

this is the first race i can actually say that hamilton is good, not the best ever but good
