Can anyone tell what happened to Kimi after restart? He had a steady 5th when I had to leave the live-TV, and the summari/high light TV from Viasat didn´t say anything about him, just that he finally got 10th.

'Quite well' must be the understatement of the century. He was simply epic in those few laps

I was just trying to throw out the basics, without hyping or crapping on either driver. In the end, Kimi was on new tyres thanks to his pit stop (so didn't really need to be in tyre-conservation mode that late in the race) passing slower cars on older tyres. Still - great to see a bit of aggression & passing in Monaco - I like Kimi's style. Most of the rest of the race was like those slow bicycle races in a velodrome - but without the strategy or sprint at the end. I was really hoping Vettel would try to put some pressure on Rosberg at the end, and disappointed when it didn't happen. He proved he could turn the wick way up with that one fast lap. I guess he just doesn't consider Rosberg a threat for the championship, so didn't want to take any chances seeing as he was going to widen the gap to Kimi & Alonso, playing it safe.

Yeah, I realize he did the smart thing, as chances of passing would've been slim anyway. I was just hoping to see the attack - some excitement. I'm sure he was getting all kinds of messages over the radio telling him to stay put, just bring it home..... but I also know he doesn't always listen (like with that fast lap) so I was hoping he'd go for it.
