    Autosport Plus has a good read up on McLaren's "decade of downhill" - for those that subscribe to AS+.

    Ferrari's updated wing mirrors after the FIA said that the winglet which Ferrari claimed was to stabilise the mirror was a nope.

    Basically identical save the winglet and cable.

    I feel sorry for his victim, hopefuly it will be a Williams so no actual racing drivers get their day ruined.

    D-Ric gonna run away with this tomorrow, should be a good scrap for the rest of the podium though.

    Max starting at the back almost guarantees a red flag on lap 1 - I wonder how many teams will have fresh rubber ready to go!

    Wtf are those annoying twerps on the bus doing in the Boss adverts? Swaying round like a pair of window lickers.

    Max to crash tomorrow, costing Ricciardo the win. Ricciardo in a fit of rage actually transforms into a honey badger and mauls max to death. You heard it here first.

    Max at the back, spots of rain. Should be a fun start.

    The woman there looks smashed out her face on something.

    Hoping Danni can avoid crashstappen he deserves the win purely for how he drove yesterday.

    Every time Stroll has been on the radio this weekend he's done nothing but whinge and cry like a child.

    Be constructive, to the point and just drive you numbnut.

    Because it's Monaco he may be able to drag it home. Big ask but he deserves a win here.

    Alonso the only retirement from Monaco GP? Pretty much sums up his luck the past few years...

    D-Ric doing a sterling job keeping it in P1 with engine issues, obviously helped by Vettel struggling with tyres. Verstappen finally driving like he should have done from the beginning of the season (though I don't want to jinx it with 20 laps still to go!).

    Williams whole new level of embarrassing this weekend, proper school-boy errors from team and drivers.

    Another Monaco GP....Glad Riccardo could hang on for the win! Controlled the race brilliantly and adjusted to the loss of power by finding that little extra in the corners.

    Unlucky for Leclerc, least he didn't light up the tires, do a 180 and attempt to reverse it into the chicane or something stupid like that.

    Another GP with Stroll being useless. Yes the car is awful and you had some bad luck but saying "I donno what happened, there is something wrong" when you hit someone clearly have a puncture just shows his immaturity. The criticism and endless complaining shows He's practically wrote off this season rather than battling and showing his worth by providing constructive feed back. Stick Kubica in the car and salvage something from this season for next season

    Bloody nice race. Both Red Bulls ran a great race but for completely different reasons.

    Who would've predicted the driver who rear-ended another car wasn't verstappen... Feel for LeClerc though.

    EDIT: I know i need to update the OP, but the forum has buggered up the formatting and i haven't had time to re-do it all

    Yeah I guess I owe Max an apology...

    A bit surprised Hamilton couldn't put more pressure on Vettel.

    Surprised Vettel couldn't really trouble Ricciardo's limping Red Bull either tbh.
