Lancaster fans seems to be everywhere. It's a good driver though, but I support Facu Regalia (and even Tio Ellinas) this season.

at least Cecotto goes to Monaco without any issue over him. Cecotto will hope not to repeat 2012 & 2013

Lancaster has always struck me as a driver capable of incredible things, but those performances have been too few and far between to really club him along the likes of other British talents like Lynn, Rowland, Blomqvist and Dennis. He did well in FR2.0 in 2007, but has blown rather hot and cold since then. Coupled with the fact that he turns 26 this year, and he's doing Le Mans as well. Maybe he should take a leaf out of Tincknell's book, and give up on his single-seater career, at least his career in the F1 junior ladder. He'd make a solid prototype driver, surely. |

As in pole position both years and the feature race win in 2012? Ok last year was quite possibly his career low point but he is carrying some nice form into this years race, fingers crossed that he goes well.

Super excited about next weekend's GP2 races, be interesting to see if Jolyon Palmer can tighten his grip on the top of the championship, he's the only man (so far) to finish every race this season on the podium, and he's pretty quick at Monaco too!

hahaha I just can't understand all the fuss about Rossi, he is always the one everyone is talking about, but the thing is, the guy is only good to win formula bmw's, since then he was a sunday-driver material. The flag on your shoulders puts some extra pressure, I assume

so this race had safety car 1, red flag at the hairpin which of course trggiers SC2 and there was a 3rd safety car plus people are questioning one of the pit stops during that last safety car

Interesting race....as soon as they restarted after the red flag there was a power cut here...didn't come back on until after the race finished.

Haven't seen it all yet but what a palava!
Evans benefitted greatly from the sc periods to hang on to 2nd. Coletti was hugely unfortunate.... Nasr came from how far back?! |

I can't recall any GP2 race in Monaco that could be considered boring.
Binder deserved more of a penalty than he got I reckon. Bit of a liability around here. I know Trummer got the penalty for the Coletti clash, but it felt typical Coletti to me. He was a bit too aggressive and understeered a touch into the final corner. Nasr came from 18th on the grid to 3rd. Buxton and Filippi didn't give him nearly enough credit on commentary. He was very forceful in the opening laps to get up to 12th before the stops. After the red flag he managed the tyres to have something to fight with in the closing stages, and was quite unlucky not to get 2nd. I like the fact he's thinking of the championship and not swinging desperately for the fences like Coletti is. He needs to stop the rot against Palmer though, because his pace is tremendous. |

Just and like as every summer ends, all tourists come home. All dreamers wake up. And new problems are born. Rossi days are 'done' in the summer day that Fernandes gets rid of his stake at Caterham Racing.
Am I the only one here to notice the shameful strategy of ART GP in Race 2? |
