The other teams should have been told long before the test and have sort of an access to it. I'd like more facts though. Lets see how it develops... Also,where did you hear "They are not testing this years tires"? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/22672228 That's what Christian Horner is saying, according to an interview that Sky did with one of the Pirrelli guys they were testing "mostly future technology, not relevant to this years championship". Now, there is a mostly in that sentence but from what I understood (also from the sky broadcast) Mercedes where handed tires with codes on them so they have no way of knowing which tires will be coming next week and which will be coming next year. | ||

I would really like to see from his camera those last 3 laps. What a beast Kimi is. | ||

Kimi closed the door got a puncture and had to pit. He exited the pits 13th and made it to 10th in the last 2 laps with 3 amazing overtakes. | ||

They showed all three moves from onboard on the BBC, Gutierrez and Bottas dived out the way like they were being lapped but then he pulled a nice move on the Hulk into Saint Devote. | ||

Almost unreal.. Especially on such a short, low average speed circuit. | ||

If you broke your brake ducts, the most obvious problem you will face is overheating, since the ducts are the brake cooling. | ||

That is what caused the brake problem, not his driving style. the way he punched the barrier before Noveau Chicane it's really surprising he made another full 2 or 3 laps or so. He was doing 1:22s from that point on when everyone else were doing 1:19s including him right before the accident. The Grosjean-Boullier-GIF is not from Monaco but from some point in 2012, btw, but it's still fitting like never before | ||
