I know it's very early, but how would you go on the strategy. Could be fascinating.

Yup! 2 hours to replenish food supplies before Indy, then we start again, then later on, do it all again again!

And Michael's 5 place grid penalty. Remembering this is Monaco, a 5 place penalty here is worth 10 everywhere else... And still, we could always get Enrique Bernoldi back for a race..

McLaren has by far the best car in the slow stuff, so if McLaren can go one race without making a mistake, Lewis should have this one.

Ferrari will be strong there. The harder the tyres are the weaker is Ferrari's performance and the softer they are the stronger is their performance and at Monaco we will have for the first time the Super Soft tyres, also there the lack of speed in the straights Ferrari suffers of will not be a big issue, so they can be closer to the stronger teams, and well, Alonso is a fantastic driver (I hate to admit that by the way). It will be interesting to see what Maldonado and Senna can do in the Williams too, they both had great performance at Monaco in lower series and this time, Senna won't have to let Bottas drive, so he's going to have more practice time. It will be interesting to see what Kobayashi can do too, he did a pretty good race last season, and also, Perez will be driving in the track that scared the hell out of him last season in his crash. The Monaco weekend will be great. Usually Monaco and Montreal provides the most unpredictable races and results every season, and in a year where the races and results are already unpredictable in "normal" tracks, I wonder what we will see at Monte Carlo, can't wait for it!

Sorry, not gonna happen.

McLaren may have the best car for this track, but Williams have the best driver. And this is a driver's track.

Wut, after one win already called best driver? Sure I give Maldonado big chances given Williams form and his track record at Monaco, but best driver...

Mclaren looked good in the slow corners this race, so if the team doesn't do there usual fuck up I would give them big chances.

I think RtN talked about GP2 where Maldonado won 5 times (?) in a row.

Actually the race will be in May 27th weekend, not May 20th. But hey, some rain would be nice, 1997 was a great race!

As Hamilton fan i would love that he wins, but i think its Raikkonens turn now... to be the 6th driver and 6th team to win this year.

It will be crazy in Monaco - crash fiesta

1 question: DRS same like last year (start/finish line), or will they be allowed to use it in tunnel?

With the way 2012 is going, $10 on Schumacher putting someone in the harbour.

acopip got me right, Pastor is the best driver at Monaco. 2004 excepted, he has been a demon there. It won't matter if the car's not as good in the race so long as he puts it on pole, which is highly likely right now.

Would be great if they try it in the tunnel, would bring a lot more overtakes, but I think it won't happen, after all the crahes we had last year at the end of the tunnel Ireally doubt FIA would let them use the DRS there, even in practices and qualifying I think they will not allow the use of it there.

I believe they weren't allowed to use it in the tunnel last year, don't think they will be now. I also red somewhere that they put the barrier a lot further towards Tabac this year, the one Perez crashed into.

Epic season is epic if we'll get 6 different winners in 6 races.
