Lotus ART had a black friday in Monaco. Jules Bianchi's race started well but a gearbox problem sent him in the back of another driver and forced the frenchman to pit for repairs. But then, the Dallara refused to rejoin the racetrack. Esteban Gutierrez was having a strong drive until an additionnal pit stop for a new nose sent him at the back of the pack.
