Monaco GP: Thursday Practice

Oh well is another weekend of pain on the cards. Most likely but lets see how we go on Thursday.

I just have one hope that both drivers can get through the two sessions without putting their cars into the barrier.

I think Verstappen is more likely to put his car into the barriers than the Williams drivers...................Verstappen always crashes at the Monaco circuit and he normally crashes more than once in Monaco (Sm8)(Sm8)(Sm8)

Let's hope they have plenty of spares

Lovely day in Monaco, currently watching the GP2 guys. (On TV)

Lots of track time for the Williams drivers then.

If you have Sky, you can watch Keke and Nico drive around 10 minutes after the practice. Keke will be in his old Williams.

Mike has been saying we're the laughing stock for the whole paddock, and that there are bets on how many times our car will end up in the wall.

So, here's the first.

11:18 The yellow flags are out - Sirotkin has hit the wall on the main straight. He has managed to limp back to the pits.

Oh well didn't take long as Sergey hit the barrier with his right rear and has had to pit.

Our car looks to be a complete disaster yet again. That crash from Sirotkin looked more like brain fade in my opinion

New moulding around the body of the halo mirroring the Mercedes approach. Plus the new winglets on the top

I know it's early but the red bull looks insane

It's just the "looks" smiling smiley I'm not really following the FPs, as I'm at work, but I tend to follow the F1 and WMR Twitter feed, as well as online timing to see what's happening, so I can't really see how this goes.

Anyhow, here's to a another sh*tty weekend guys. Hope it gets better after the summer break...

It really was a brain fade, by Sergey. Here's the video.

Looks like we're about 1.5 seconds off the pace so far in FP1 (20 minutes to go), maybe not such a shitty weekend in prospect?

Fewer long corners helps but you cent hide the lack of grip.

With the car being so skittish I'm amazed the team are so close... a car like that being so unstable can't be getting pushed hard.

I don't think so, as not everyone has hooked up a good lap, so it seems. Maybe Sergey just did. Lance for sure didn't, he's .9 off Sirotkin.

Sirotkin recovered that's good.

Lots of chatter from Stroll about not generating enough grip at the front.

Car typically skittish.

Holy shitballs.. where did that lap come from? Anyone who has followed the timing sheets? Was it a glory run by Sergey or was it his proper pace?

Stroll appears to be running a nostrilled nose in an @f1 tweet titled "they ca him glance stroll" once again no photos of the car. Bloody frustrating this year that nobody cares about the Williams.
