Unless we get a rapid gather up of Deathwatch then yes, Formula D is my plan.
Its Monaco!
If its wet then that's a scary scary track

Hopefully if it's wet more cars will finish than in 1996...

In the pre race press conference Grupo Lego finally revealed their drivers, no they were not the Stig or even his building brick cousins; they’re Wildstyle and Unikitty. Both taking time from waging unremitting war on Megablocks during filming of ‘The Lego Movie, Episode II: Attack on the Clones’, to pursue their passion for speed, adrenaline and Kimi Räikkönen.
A sun drenched Monaco saw Singleton take pole and as Murry Walker screamed ‘Go, Go, Go!!!” the TT Racing driver raced wheel to wheel with Unikitty and Ein; Mollstalls number 1 making up for last races disappointment by scything through the grid.
Lowes separated the wheat from the chaff, and many cars from their bodywork as it became littered debris; at the end of the race Grupo Lego confirmed more of Wildstyles car was scattered upon the track than attached to the chassis. By everyones second visit Unikitty had pulled clear and was able to take the chequered flag, Doublebury a close second while Singleton wasn’t able to fend off a charge by Wildstyle who took third.
After a stewards enquiry the result was upheld, Wildstyles car was not designed to intentionally shed weight during the race and all the crashes were ‘racing incidents by reckless and stupid numpties’.
The next race will be at Valencia in a weeks time.

Yup - two cars had their bodywork fall apart during the race, and a third crashed out with no tyres or brakes.....
I thought one of yours was a goner as well but you managed to get it home....I'll update the excel file tonight when I get home I hope.

Indeed I wasn't sure the one with no brakes from turn 2 onwards and then down to almost no bodywork or suspension would make it around.

Not sure how half the cars made it around...by the end there was at least one corner where if a 12 was rolled I'd have crashed off
