    Good point. I have a feeling Pic is quietly very good but it's hard to tell driving that old banger. He's certainly giving Glock more of a fight that his previous team mates.

    Pic at the moment is very hot and cold. He's not a good qualifier either, was outqualified by de la Rosa this weekend.

    For all we know Pic is the next Vettel, never noticed until he wins and then gets the WDC.

    Not sure why, but I quite like Pic. He just picked up (pun intended) the necessary lessons straight from the get go, and as Max says, giving Glock more run for his money than previous teammates. Not quite sure why Marussia/Virgin has been so keen on picking out unknown GP2 quantities, but Pic is one I'm keeping my eye on.

    Has Glock ever beaten his team mate in the WDC standings? If my memory is correct, he hasnt.

    that was about Maldonado's purposeful crash into Perez, I guess you think it's a different kettle of fish when you enjoy seeing a crash, I guess you don't find it so 'childish' and 'vile' then?

    The problem they have is that the car is so poor that they will struggle to attract people who have had a solid career in F1. Would the likes of Barichello or Heidfeld have gone there? So the choice is between known quantities such as Karthikeyan, or drivers who have impressed in lower formulae but haven't had a sniff at F1.

    As my other post was deleted, I shall mention again, sarcasm has easily gone amiss.

    No, you're just an immature hypocrite who cries everytime anyone gives you their opinion of Schumacher, whilst expecting everyone to ignore your incessant 'Schumacher is a god who can do no wrong' posts. How many people have you personally insulted this weekend? 5? 6? 7? And none of them insulted you first.

    2.92 has to be the worst average ever. Well deserved.

    I'd say that 2.92 was generous. :)

    The last few laps heated up a bit. Vettel and Alonso were impressive but other than that, it were pants. Probably not helped by everybody waiting for rain and then all the junk off-line.

    There have been some dull Monaco weekends that I recall... That one may take the cake though. Pity... Sometime it produces a blinder!
