Soz guys meant to check in after qualis but had a houseful as eldest is home. WHAT a quali that was! So wholesome.. I so want a Leclerc Piastri podium tomorrow!

Also the Matty stuff doesn't surprise me at all. Sorry to say it most of the time average looking white men with a bit of fame take every bit of advantage where they can. Something to think about when slagging off drivers other halfs maybe eh? It's not often the women who have the power in these situations....

Give me a sec to find the clip

This- I personally have mixed feelings and I am u decided, it might have been Lewis dissapointment and he just worded it like that (taking into account that in prevjous races few times he was outqualified and said afterwards he himself changed the setup before quali) , but might have been a subtle suggestion between the lines that it is kind of organised like that, like he just "knows" in advance it will be like that :LOL::LOL:

That is why I need Nico's interpretation, he interprets Lewis like only few people can 😆

It's hard. He's not speaking particularly aggressively but who knows what is going on at Mercedes. Something has been off for a while now in that team in general in my opinion... I guess a test would be if Lewis got on the podium today rather than George.

I had been thinking that the F3 drivers were behaving themselves pretty well after yesterday's car park but then they've gone and done 2 safety cars in the last 7 laps 😅 Got a tight schedule today for motorsport viewing - I even timetabled it with when my window to have a shower is!

You can always count on F3 for safety cars, I'd be surprised if there weren't one 😂 I just finished watching it, perfectly timed to go straight to the F2 race.

It's going to be up towards 30 degrees in the shadows today, so I will be spending time inside with the AC and in my little pool outside. If not I'm going to overheat 😅

Ohhh, little pool sounds good, I think it is close to 30 in my area too, absolutely too hot for me, I need to now plan my daily walk for a reasonable hour :LOL:

BUT finally, I found the only acceptable celebs attending Monaco GP - Aleksander Aamodt Kilde and Michaela Schiffrin, these are some hardcore athletes that I am happy to see there!

A kiddy pool is seriously the best solution when I don't have the river to jump i to anymore. Filled it with ice cold water the other day, and it's still keeping cold. I would have gone for a bigger one, but I have nowhere to put it's that level enough 😂
We are just not doing a daily walk these days, the dog almost has a heat stroke just by being outside in these temperatures, and she has water, a cooling mat and the opportunity to go for a dip in the kiddy pool (but she hates getting wet 😂).

Aleks and Michaela are very much acceptable! Aksel should also have been there, but I am not blaming him for taking the Porsche out for a spin with the scenery he is showing on his story 🤩

not sure what is going on - apparently Lewis was offered the upgrade but declined in case something goes wrong during qualy and that would result in a pit lane start apparently
But it feels like he‘s sort of blaming his qualifying results on some team interna - did they remove some of his team and transfered them to George? Otherwise not sure how he could be not better then George as it’s track result based 🤔

not sure if I’m ready for the pain of this afternoon!
 
I quite like Hadjar but the way he yelled at his engineer about the p2 is just unacceptable... I hope he will apologize to him later because there is nothing his team could do to prevent O'Sullivan from winning after the VSC came out. Especially when he only had a chance at winning because Verschoor got problems 🙄
