Tony Kanaan replaces Barrichello at Monaco
At least his helemet is anyways.
http://www.f1racing.net/en/news.php?newsID=119152 Rubens is wearing Kanaan's helmet in Monaco and Kanaan is wearing Rubens helmet at the Indy 500. Seems those are the 2 races each would like to race so they switched helmets for this upcoming weekend. I think its pretty cool. I think I would have liked to see a good driver cross over to a place like Monaco. I know it would never happen exspecially with 12 teams now. But when there were 10 it would have been cool to see Bernie buy a couple of cars (lord knows he has the money) or get a third car from a team and have lets say Rossi race or Paul Tracy, or SeaBass, maybe Jeff Gordon, or someone from WRC have a shot at Monaco. Could have been interesting Good luck to both Rubens and Tony this weekend Will they swap back if they both win with their new helmets? |

You got me
Though it is to bad that nobody could just show up with a decent car and give it a try, like they could at the Indy 500 (not that they do that anymore not like they used too anyways) But if you could have any driver you wanted race Monaco at least once who would it be? |

That's cool. Good to see Kanaan being noticed a bit around the F1 paddock. Immensely talented guy.

Perhaps Kanaan will be slower than all his teammates on Sunday, after a good qualifying.
Seriously, this is a nifty little thing to do. Utterly pointless, but it's a little bit of fun between friends! |

The casual viewer doesn't even bother to look at the helmets anyway.
They sit there, wondering what they are watching, waiting for a crash. |

And I won't even bother to look for a different helmet in one of those running cars in the streets of Monte Carlo, it certainly won't be with the front runners... |

The FIA should mandate more crashes but i fear that it would go against their cost-cutting crusade. Last edited by Marbot; 26 May 2006 at 16:53. |
