So guys&gals, what's your take on the upcoming Monaco F1 GP?

My feeling is that Kimi will be hard to beat. Even if drewchie thinks 'Kimi' sounds like someones kid sister, he drives better than most sisters...

 

1st. Alonzo
2nd. Trulli
3rd. Kimi

But, what do I know....

 

Those are the top three currently in points, but imho the Maclaren car has improved quicker than the others and had a significant speed advantage. (this is based on San Marino/Spain only). Also the fact that Maclaren can run three cars in practise does help them getting the set-ups right and saving the race cars.

 

1. JPM
2. Alonso
3. Trulli

 

Based on the past two races, I can't see how Kimi could loose unless he crashes or his car blows up.

 

Monaco is always a strange race. Anything can happen there and not always the fastest car and/or driver wins. Flavio has his team clicking and they have their shit together. I think they will be tough to beat. I also would not be shocked to see Toyota get their first F1 victory in Monaco.

 

Monaco for sure is not one of the 'normal' races. Funny things happen in this race. Renault has excellent torque and good acceleration out of corners, they will be a top contender.

Same with Toyota, if they now have a license to compete

 

Although Bridgestone seems to be unable to perform, I'm still going to have to give a vote of confidence to Michael. The more races he does not finish, the more motivated he will become.

 

You've never seen my big sister drive...

As for the race, it certainly appears that Lil' Kimi is the guy to beat right now.

Whoever wins, it won't be in a Honda.

 

Given that there are never any passes in Monaco, whoever gets to the first corner in P1 is likely to win.
