Martini girl messes up F1 racers in Monaco
Martini girl in Monaco – Click above for high-res image gallery
You'd have a hard time concentrating too if this woman were staring right at you. That's what reportedly happened during last weekend's Monaco Grand Prix. Drivers complained during qualifying that a billboard advertisement located just after Lowes hairpin and before the tunnel was distracting them. The advert was for Martini, the "Italian winemaker founded in 1863 and famous for its iconic vermouth" (according to Luxist), and featured the enchanting gaze of model Jessiqa Pace.
Race winner Jenson Button reportedly remarked, "Every time you passed her, it was as though she was looking right at you." Button was able to keep his cool, but others maybe not so much. Last year's champ, Lewis Hamilton, crashed during Saturday's qualifying round in close proximity to the billboard. Eyes on the road, Lewis.
Pace was actually in Monaco for the race, and when she heard about the situation told reporters, "Obviously it's very flattering that I'm distracting the drivers so much, but I'd feel terrible if someone got hurt."

Things get really desperate if this girl stops traffic. At this rate, Rosie O'Donnell will be on the cover of the Top 100 people of our time in a year.

The two sentences of your post do not seem to logically flow together. Care to elaborate?

Yeah but it would take up the whole front and back

I guess, it ended up a little poorly articulated. What I meant was if this girl is stunning, then Rosie must be at least very cute. By most standards, the girl on the picture is very so-so looking, even with tons of makeup, pro lighting and pro photography.

Unless you are a lesbian I'm sorry but your opinion is invalid.
I prob find many men you find to be attractive to be nothin but my opinion doesnt matter since Iam not attracted to any man.

Im sorry, but after seeing the fourth pic, i think i would have crashed my car too. And no, i dont think there a stache on the uppper lip. even if there is, she can bleach that right out, or better yet, get the removed by laser.
All i can say is she looks sexy.

I can see how people wouldn't think of her as being from California... she made a press statement and didn't mention guy marriage.

Hell, I had a hard time watching the race with her on that billboard. Everytime the camera panned by her my eyes went from F1 car to her.

I LOVE how commenters in here are saying she's not that attractive. As if you'd ever land somebody even half as attractive as her, lol.

Wow, is it that bad in US?
Aki 5:21PM (5/28/2009)
Oh I'm sure you have a supermodel girlfriend. Probably two Veyrons in your garage too.
Yaroukh 5:16AM (5/29/2009)
I did not notice those 2 Veyrons in your first comment, sorry for that...
Oh wait, there wasn't any. You were speaking about 1/2 as attractive as the chick on the poster. Between that and having supermodel as a g.f. + 2 Veyrons is quite stretch.
No, I don't have Veyron.
Yes, I was dating girl as attractive as this one.

@ aKi
Try harder buddy..because there are PLENTY of great looking women in the US..lmao..and yes she really isn't that hot face wise...that billboard is completely edited and touched that it might as well not be her anyways.

There are far more ugly fat chicks here. "Pudgy" is considered "skinny" these days. They alter the women's sizes so lard-arses don't feel so bad about buying a size 24, because it's called a "size 18" now. My wife has to buy children's clothes sometimes, because the new "size 8" is the old size 12.
Add to that the number of people who make themselves ugly with piercings and tattoos. In Arizona, anyone over the age of 22 who's been told they're pretty has skin like a walrus's armpit because they don't wear enough clothes (did you ever see a cowboy movie where anyone wore short sleeves?)
So yes, it really *is* that bad in the US. Look at the product above a bit closer: her skin is broken and cracked already. She'll be done for in five years is she doesn't get out of the sun and put some bloody clothes on. Daft cancerous bint.

I also had a hard time (pun intended) watching the cars at that corner. I still think Danica Patrick is sexier. And she's got some skills behind the wheel, also.

Definitely rather have Danica Patrick.
Plus she has a Lamborghini and who knows what else.
