Vettel has already lost the race, bugger. He was the guy to beat, in my mind, but no power and stuck in first gear. Unless they pile up the race he will finish poorly. Now I’m watching Kimi Raikkonen, whose Ferrari will, I hope, jam it up the keisters oif the AMG monkeys.

Update 1: 18 laps in and the chicane is covered in marbles. They said the track was cold but damn.

U2: From my dear old friend and confidant Mlle Jenny, in conversation last night. “I miss the days of Jackie Stewart at Indy. Unlike the people anouncing today, he knew when to STFU.

U3: Shootout between Infinity and Mercedes. I wish they’d given Ricciardo’s car to Vettel, he’d have won this race with a car that ran, dammit. Raikkonen and Magnussen out. Bugger. No! Raikkonen is back in with new tires!

where I put my laser boresighter, dammit.

Plan for tomorrow is to go to mass tonight, so I can wake up while the women sleep in. That way I can catch Monaco, we can go have breakfast, and I can return in time for the indy.

As the only sporting event I watch all year, I’m happy to set some time aside, but really, you watch the opening so you can hear Jim Nabors sing, then grill until the last twenty laps, keeping an eye open for accidents while you do. Monaco is a much more interesting race all around, but I usually don’t get to catch it. Hopefully it will all come together Sunday
