He crashed in final practice.

Got up early this morning, just to watch it, just in case.
I'm glad I did too, because I doubt Alonso would be able to go through the entire field and win it.
I'm hoping the switch to Kubica from Rosberg pays off.

I didn't see that coming either. I thought Kubica was going to have it for sure. 

Wish Massa could have picked up a little more, but maybe he'll get really lucky tomorrow.

I watched Practice 3 at work on the internet... and completely forgot to change my prediction. Ooops.

Of course, I had forgotten about the "Alonso Advantage" which has been practiced in the past.  Just have Massa stick it in the wall at La Rascasse

Sat here watching the race and apparently there is some bloke called Webber up front, but you would think that Alonso is leading and lapping everyone

Hmm this Schumi Alonso incident could be interesting.
They have to decided if the race was ended under safety car conditions or not.

Ross Brawn thinking the same way as me. Green flags waving, safety car in message on the boards, race on. Alonso got Owned as the kiddies like to say.

3 laps to go, trulli and chandok collide at Rascasse. last lap, message comes up on the board, "safety car in this lap" Back at La Rascasse, Alonso and Schumacher pass the Safety car line with green flags and lights flashing. Alonso gets some bad wheel spin and Schumi passes him into the final turn taking 6th place.

The confusion comes now from a rule
Article 40.13 of the 2010 regulation states that 'If the race ends whilst the safety car is deployed it will enter the pit lane at the end of the last lap and the cars will take the chequered flag as normal without overtaking."

However, this is nullified by the fact that race control put on the teams info board, "safety car in this lap" and then waved the green flags. Had the race ended still under Safety car conditions, the yellows will have still been flying and the SC boards out even if the car had peeled into the pit lane.

Someone on autosport has posted an interesting picture.

The end of the aussie GP last year when the exact same situation occured. That though is a picture of how a race would have ended under the safety car.
This however is the end of this GP

LOL, hes had some issues with that corner in the past.  I suppose it didn't help that Damon Hill was the race driver in the stewards office!


Made my day.

The only thing that bothers me, is the FIA/ Stewards have basically stated, the flag/marshall system means nothing.
I'm not going to rattle off a load of motor-racing rules, but anyone from the casual fan to a club level motor racer, to Michael Schumacher, has a basic understanding of the flags and their meanings.
Regardless of whether its waved 2 miles, or 2 yards from the line, a green flag means, you are free to continue racing at a normal speed. The FIA in their infinate wisdom introduced a safety car line this year, in the case of Monaco this was at the pitlane entry line. This line means you are allowed to overtake from that point instead of waiting for start finish line.
A safety car will not be deployed on track where there is green flag racing, yellow flags and double waved yellows will be waved, and the SC board will be displayed to signal that a safety car is deployed. Where a safety car is not on track, the lead driver will under SC board and waved yellow instruction, lead the field round at a safe reduced pace, overtaking will not be permitted until, the track is clear and the green flag is waved.
Ok maybe some of the rules. 
I'm not angry because its Schumacher, hell its hardly much to be annoyed over losing 6th. I'm annoyed because someone has clearly screwed up in race control, and is punishing a team because they took advantage of a rule.
