| This was an eventful race for me. First i get a false start, thinking race started after the red light turned off. Noope, there was a green light afterwards I emerge from first lap unscathed, enter pits, get in my pitstall and i discover that doesn´t count for a drive throught. It´s either service or drive throught in the pits you asshole! I managed to brake too late twice in turn 1, losing the nosewing both times, plus making extra diverse damage to the car (fortunately it kept drivable). And just when i was chugging behind Patrick Marucco, happy to just keep behind him while turning laps, my engine says enough and i get a nice barbeque in the Sainte Devote ascension. 27 laps overall, better than last time. I hope i wasn´t a too big nuisance for other cars. But i have to think about my engine incident and change my approach to shifting, i think i´m being too aggresive (and definitely i had my rev limit lowered). | |

| Such a shame... Caught Tiago on the rear ever so slightly and it bent my front suspension and lost front wing, So had to pit for repairs and carried on, Car was quite bad through left handers but managed to cope, But to my suprise i was able to lap easily in the 1:27's - 1:28's and could keep pace with Greg when he lapped me! Now you may be thinking, "Well your car couldnt have been that bad" But if you look on the replay you can see my front right is bent outwards (More than i have ever seen on this mod!) Anyway few laps later clipped the swimming pool and damaged the suspension more, But then a few laps later had a spin at Antony Noghes (If that's how you spell it!) And it ruined the back end, pitted for repairs but no joy, Was still badly damaged. Never mind! Sorry to Tiago if i damaged your car, Guess it was Karma for my slow getaway from the Paul Ricard test race where you hit me! And sorry to all the people i help up on the 1st lap while i was trying to get back to the pits (Big sorry to a Jordan, Not sure who it was but i nearly squeezed you into the wall at Lowes Hairpin purley because the car couldn't turn much!) Thanks for hosting HSO! See you all in Canada! | |

| Went since lap 1 with a completely torn up car (Sorry Richard, I had to lift a bit because my car was sliding) just to get disconnected at lap 41 or 42...... Pretty frustrating... the most frustrating of them all...
EDIT:By this time was already 8th and and with a destroyed left wrist (the car was pulling to the right)

| Ran 7th when I went over the kerbs at the harbour, lost my front wing and damaged the steering. Kept going though as I knew that Monaco is tough, managed to catch Martinelli, but lost another FW and had to pit. I came out of the pits and drove on the right when Marucco smashed into my back. C'mon, Gui told us to stay left, because the pit exit is very dangerous. You nearly drove into my way when you exited the pits too! Could have been a battle for 5th place without the errors, but it wasn't to be. @Gui: You sure you graded yourself right with the Brabham? Nobody stands a chance, you nearly lapped the whole field | |

| Race was going so well, running in 7th place, then lost FW on lap 50-something. Car was crabbing a little after that, but pace was still ok. Turns out without the mistake it would have been a point for Fondmetal. Congrats to all finishers! Tough race, but great fun keeping faster cars behind me. Let most of them through in the end, I find it only slows me down looking in the mirrors every 5 seconds. Drove faultlessly pretty much for 3/4 of the race. Will be unlikely I'll get a chance to get a point this season again, so I'm bitterly disappointed, even though 7th in reality was beyond my wildest dreams tonight. Really really gutted. | |

| Départ très prudent, je me contente de suivre tranquillement Richard sur la voie de droite jusqu'à la sortie de Ste Dévôte, où je vois que Richard a perdu son aileron av. Dans la descente du Loews, Richard se met à gauche, je peux le passer à l'extérieur gentiment, mais sa caisse, dépourvue d'appui avant, a du mal à tourner et m'emmène gentiment vers l'extérieur, le tout à 30 à l'heure ! NP, Richard ! Pas de bobo, mais Teemu qui me suivait en profite pour nous passer à l'intérieur. Je passe Richard à l'entrée du tunnel et prend le rythme de Teemu pour une course d'attente... qui n'aura pas lieu puisque 4-5 tours plus tard, j'accélère sans doute trop fort à la sortie de la piscine, le temps de reprendre le contrôle, mon freinage pour la Rascasse est trop tardif et finit ma course, suspension pliée dans les pneus. Dommage, ça s'annonçait intéressant ! Comme d'hab', vivement la prochaine ! | |

| I lost the chance for a better result in turn 1 : I saw Alberto in the tires and partly blocking the road, and with a car on my right, I felt things could end up badly. So I went to visit Sainte Devote and restarted dead last. Even if generally guys let me by (thanks for that ![:top:](/users/2915/69/36/76/smiles/652294.gif) ), I lost time behind other guys who were clearly slower, including the 3rd position car a lap ahead, finished to end my hopes of a better result Congrats up front | |

| Had very good start and jumped from 9th to 6th. Then Campigotto made a "Trulli Train" and we were stuck in that with Nilsson infront of me and Freitas behind. My pace would have been almost 3 seconds faster at that point so it was frustrating, I was just staying close and looking for gaps. Some 15 laps later Nilsson got bad exit from T1 and I was able to overtake him in the uphill sector, and then got Alessio right after that in the chicane braking after the tunnel. Later in the race Nilsson was again catching me and I was just hanging on to the 3rd place as much as I could. I was on Super Softs and damn I was going to finish without stopping if that was the case, but then Anders Finally pitted and I was able to do so one lap later. Apart from one spin in T1 this was perfect race for me. Also huge thanks to backmarkers, bravo. | |

| Que c'est dur Monaco ! Apres un départ tres prudent, les 30 premiers tours furent passionnants car j'étais toujours au contact dans un petit groupe Puis j'ai fait un t.a.q à l'entrée de la ligne droite et j'ai abimé ma belle Williams Apres avoir laisser passer tout le monde j'ai reussi à regagner mon stand pour réparation La Williams etait encore tres "conduisible" à condition de rester prudent et du coup je visai le top 10 quand vers le 60eme tour David m'est sorti des stands dans l'ombre sous le nez et je n'ai pu l'eviter A ce moment là il n'y avait plus que 12 volitures en piste et je pense qu'il pouvait attendre mon passage plutot que de risquer un accrochage, dommage Bravo aux finisseurs et merci à HSO pour nous permettre de vivre de grandes soirée comme celle là | |
