If you're an F1 fan,then you would find what I am going to say much easier to understand but if you're not an F1 fan,then I think you should not bother to read this post unless of course you have nothing better to do but to read it even though you don't have any idea what I am talking about.Anyway,I'm still going to move on to talk about yesterday Monaco Grand Prix.They say the Monaco GP is one of the most exciting race in every season and I completely agree.
I think I speak on behalf of all the F1 fans when I say Monaco is one of the GP that you always look forward to every season.I love it not only because it is one of the few street circuits of the season and its rich history,but because of the race that it gives us.Some people say it might be boring because the circuit is very narrow,and there is not much action,in terms of overtaking that can take place,but they are wrong and F1 is not just about overtaking but a mixture of other elements as well.It's also about who have the best strategy and the best driving skills and all these were put to the test in yesterday Grand Prix.The narrow circuit itself was already a huge test for the drivers but the rain made things much more difficult for them.Out of the 20 cars which started the race,only 14 finished the race.Among the casualties is Rosberg and Nelson Piquet Jr. The big names wasnt spared either with the likes of Raikkonen,Massa and Alonso making mistakes but they still managed to finish the entire race.The race winner,Hamilton was also involved in a slight incident but with some luck,he managed to recover it quickly and along with Massa mistake,he was able to win the race despite starting in 3rd position.
There was one particular driver that impressed me the most yesterday and that was Adrian Sutil of the Force India team.He started in 19th place but with some luck going to his side and some good driving too,he managed to get into the 4th spot in the closing stages of the race when something terrible happen.As the Safety Car was making one of its round after Rosberg crash,Raikkonen lost control of his F2008,crashing heavily into the back of Sutil,resulting in both drivers heading to the pits for repairs.Unlike Raikkonen though,Sutil was unable to continue in the race as the damage on his car was too severe and with that,ends his hope to register his first ever point of the season as well as his team.Understandably,he and his team was utterly devastated by that incident and the latest I heard was that the Force India team have asked the stewards to take a look at the incident as they felt Raikkonen was at fault.
There was a lot of dramas in the race yesterday,it was entertaining to watch.I think it is probably the best race of the season so far.Im speaking all these as a neutral of course,not as a Renault or Alonso fan because as you know,we have not been doing to well this season,which includes yesterday performance as well.I dont understand how can we have such a competitive car last time turning into such a terrible car this time.They really got to go and have a good look at the car once the season has ended.I have had high hopes before the season started,especially when Alonso was coming back but that hasnt been the case so far.I dont think Piquet is good enough,but I thought the same thing when Kovalainen when he join the team last season.Of course he have not been doing better at McLaren,but at least he got some points on the table unlike Piquet,but maybe its because of the car I don't know.
Anyway,the next race will be held in 2 weeks time which is the Canadian Grand Prix while there are still 2 street circuit GP left to go,one is in Valencia while the other,is of course none other than our own Singapore GP which I really cant wait.Hopefully,it can surpass Monaco by giving us a more entertaining race.Till then,drive safely.
