Heh, spent a fair bit of time before going work this morning watching those clips of Monaco. Have been watching a lot of the classics recently and I do agree without a doubt. It makes you sit back and think what it'd be like to watch the likes of Hamilton, Schumacher, Alonso-kid and Vettel in the classic cars.

Mind you, a ban on refuelling is a step closer to how it used to be - will help force overtaking on track instead of via pitlane manouvres (to a point, bearing in mind tyre-stops)

Plus of course, not much better than watching multi-million pound cars racing round Monaco :D


Oh btw - notice Senna kept getting blue flagged? :D (for those that don't know, it means GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY, YOU'RE ABOUT TO BE LAPPED!)

Twas in no way a better race then in 2008 :) That said, there have been some absolute blinders over the last couple of decades that I can remember; it's not to say there haven't been awesome races in the past :)

Rain at monaco though, nothing can beat it...

10 points to whoever can remember which year it was that Schumacher won with a severely broken gearbox...

I was just looking through some Banksy work, on his website and spotted that one. Thought it would make a decent avatar.
