    Default Fastest Lap Ever At Monaco GP

    This don't even look real, it looks almost like a video game. But it's real!

    That fancy steering wheel with all the buttons for adjusting the brakes on all 4 corners separately during the race and a lot of other stuff cost on average $250,000.

    The cost of the cars are out of sight. If you would like to get into F1 racing you can get a 2012 HRT Ferrari 112 for US$22m or a Red Bull RB8 for $172m.

    Great race course and got it tuned in today.

    Love the tight turns and the sound when they fly thru the tunnel.

    By far my favorite F1 race of the year, Indy after this and hopefully the rain will hold off for the Coke 600

    You can put a monkey in the seat of these modern machines and turn a decent lap. Senna at Monaco with no help and very little downforce.

    It can't be that easy. They had 3 crashes during qualifying as of yesterday. I watched a reporter do a lap, he was a young guy in good shape that covered sports for one of the channels. I think he said his top speed was around 100mph. He was worn out after one lap. The drivers go for hours.
