Nico Rosberg stole the pole Saturday, and with it Sunday's Grand Prix de Monte Carlo.

With less than a couple minutes to go in Q3 (qualifying), Rosberg was in the No. 1 position. Hearing that Lewis Hamilton had just established a career best time (well faster than Rosberg's) in the first section of the circuit, Rosberg drove off the track ahead of Hamilton, forcing an area yellow and thus forcing Hamilton to slow his run and qualify in 2nd place.

It's common knowledge that the pole sitter has a near guarantee of winning at Monte Carlo.

Rosberg is a piece of shit.

1. I watched qualifying. That was too calculated for me too.

FIA should take away the fastest lap time in a case like that. I think in Indycar, you lose your fastest lap when you interfere with the qualifying of other cars.

2. Anybody monitoring team radios?

This is why F1 is increasinglay irrelevant to motorsport.

3. Totally disagree...It is quite clear he over-cooked it...

..the race officials were satisfied, the only person that wasn't was poor old Louise...

And Rosberg won from pole...back-to-back wins...and the lead in the championship...

FINALLY there might be a reason to watch this series again...
