Changing the subject a little,
I am disappointed in the fact that we didn't see a "top ten shoot out".
30% of the drivers didn't bother, just to save a set of tyres.
I'm beginning to wonder if the remarks that Shuey made a few weeks ago are right?
I didn't quite catch what denotes the order of drivers that don't put a time in in qually 3.
( i.e. 8th, 9th & 10th )
Can anyone explain?

i hope lewid does a good job from the back of the grid. if the team had their act together he'd be well clear at the top by now! so unlucky

i think its maclarens attempt at being competitive backfired , all the teams are pushing all the time .....
when did they re fuel the car ? in the garage or in the pit box ?
i would have thought they would know straight away if theres not enough fuel in the car , perhaps they just chanced it ?

It seems a little unfair to me that Vettel/Red Bull can do what they did. He just cruises around in Q3 and does not complete a lap. This means he
can start with whichever tyres he likes. I know it is within the rules, but hardly provides a spectical for the thousands who have turned up to watch
them ringing the necks out of the cars.
At least Hamilton was risking all by putting down his fastest possible time. Isnt that point of racing ?
Perhaps any team who forgoe the chance to go for the Pole in Q3, should be penalised as well? 5, 10 place penalty perhaps.

I thought it was a good race, and another driver in first, well done !
this so much better than the old boring ways of watching vettle or shcue winning EVERY race
and winning the title in june (sarcastic remark)
of course watching Button with Brawn do it was different !!

Schuey was a tosspot! 7 times world champ but can't admit he screwed up by stuffing Senna in the gearbox when the Williams was on oldr tyres,
schoolboy error.
The other retired returnee Kimi, just knuckles down and gets it on the podium :-)
Great result for Williams too

Yep thats kinda what the stewards thought as well, 5 place drop for him at Monaco 
Sad news about the garage incident, 30 odd people treated and 3 of those (williams crew) held in hospital. 
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Only one of the Williams team in hospital now, however he has been left with serious burns. He's apparently chirpy and chatting with his wife,
and will be flown home on Wednesday.
