Well putting VDG and Pasta next to each other on the grid was always going to end badly.

Which was suprising. i think he's only made a start good enough to hold position a few times in the last year, and only made positions a handful of times in his whole career.

Oh dear... Red flag now. About Alonso. I think it he shouldn't relinquish the position though.

This has been the weekend of the wreckers, starting with Felipe "St. Devote" Massa, RoGro and now The Reverend. Come to think about it, Pastor ruined VDG's epic qualify effort by destroying his nose on lap 1. Divine retribution?

No. Because there wasn't a red flag last year, that was 2011. :P

One good thing about the red flag at Monaco, the convenient pause in the race gave me time to get home from work, where I'd stayed to watch!
