I like a conspiracy theories and in the absence of any concerning Ricciardo's 2nd pitstop at Monaco I have made some of my own.

A. The mechanics had taken of their headphones to listen to Justin Bieber drop one.

B. Mercedes hacked into the Red Bull radio network and deleted the command to get the tyres ready.

C. Christian Horner had got some very good odds on a pitstop blunder costing Ricciardo the race.

D. Some business colleagues of Kyvat's father let it be known that they knew where the mechanics live.

Plus add more:-

Too many people were noticing how Merc were sabotaging Lewis' car, so for this race they borked Nico's and cut a deal with Horner to let him win for a change and throw us off the sabotage trail.

Please don't tap into the stupid Sky Sports F1 tabloid bull***t.

They look like cretins when they talk about the possibility of commercial enterprises employing thousands of people deliberately sabotaging their own drivers denying the possibility of earning points.

They f****d up. Simple.

I forget why exactly but year before last I was absolutely convinced that some results were fixed, or heavily influenced. A combination of likelihood of failure, convenient wins / pole (home race = suddenly faster car?) driver reactions (none of them are exactly Daniel Day Lewis) and the team principle's 'press face'. A token breakthrough for a second place team here or there, so long a the overall constructors title wasn't too adversely derailed.

Lets be honest; they're all in it for the money. They're all in it together. It's a traveling circus and they all have to make money from it.

That said, whilst I genuinely couldn't care either way, I wouldn't be surprised if they were or weren't, there's nothing this season that's made me think 'fix'.

The FIA felt that Ricky Bobby was bringing F1 into disrepute by doing an in-lap that was 10-seconds quicker that the race leader's out lap, and so told Renault to cancel the new contract to supply RB if they did not penalise his audacity.

They suddenly realised that he's Australian, and went into Webber mode.

When they weren't looking Jos Verstappen had blocked the tyres in at the back of the garage with Verstappens toy cars to make sure his boy was still number 1, his plan was to be in vain however after Verstappen binned it in the wall for the 5th time in 2 Monaco weekends, a statistic rivalled only by the great Pastor Maldonado, also a Spanish GP winner.

That is two races on the trot that Ricciaro should have one.

What a shame for him and the team.
