Now its Rosberg dropping like a stone.

montelik: Alonso and Ferrari are on fire and the crowd are loving it.

OH YEAH!!!!!! and as the Mercedes, within 13 laps their race pace proved to be not good enough!

mc claren is gone.. lotus is the new maclaren this year

ricciardo racing well.///

Looks like there will plenty of stops today.

biolabee: mc claren is gone.. lotus is the new maclaren this year

indeed!!! and even though Mercedes shown great hope, there will be no fairytale story for Ham.

Hamilton

wow... superb dribing btw kimi and SV
they nearly touched!!

Vettel gave more room to Raikonnen than he has ever given to Webber.

Raikonnen to Red Bull in 2014.

whats wrong with the Mercedes today?

Its insane how fast these Ferraris are! Massa started 9th for God sake

Pirelli need to address their tires, constantly De-laminating.

My Baba Ijebu is telling me Alonso's car will develop a fault and not finish.

biolabee: damage to roman....

i think its a podium of vettel, alonso and kimi... not sure of positions

seems it will be massa not sv

Fernando wins. What happened to Massa?

Hamilton lapped, what a horrific weekend despite starting on the front row.

superb race from FA

montelik: My Baba Ijebu is telling me Alonso's car will develop a fault and not finish.

abeg, go get a refund from your Baba Ijebu, lol! this championship will go all the way till the last race, no doubt!

If Alonso does not win this year he might as well shut up! Because no car out there is faster than the Ferrari

Consistency would decide who wins this title. 4th isn't too bad for SV though that puts Kimi in striking range and despite winning only one race he's always been there or thereabouts

One boring race............

Thank God for wheel to wheel racing in Indy Car

An interesting weekend upon us! With arguably the toughest and most legendary track on the calendar. Rosberg,Hamilton where the frontrunners with the Raris just behind them! The Red Bulls looked a little off pace but Saturday is the key as there's not a lot of room for overtaking on this street circuit

Massa,Grosjean and Sutil crashing out in practice! Grosjean crashed twice! And Massa's crash looks pretty bad they most likely wouldn't make qualifying

The Monaco Grand Prix has always been a boring race to me. Monaco, more than any other circuit, is a massive 3 day advertising event. Very little actual racing and and very little overtaking happens.

I remember last year’s race, Everybody cruised to the flag behind Webber in a train. Nobody attempted a move because they don’t want to risk ruining their tyres thus lose another position by making a tyre change in the pits or crash against those mettallic walls.

Anyways I guess some people prefer this kind of racing; Driving an F1 car inches from walls for hours.

Personally I don't rate Monaco. No doubt it is a tough challenge for the drivers, but it is not a competitive race.

Mercedes are the Red Bull of 2011. Supreme when it comes to qualifying, but significantly reduced race pace. Only that Mercedes race pace is much more abysmal.

The Mercs are better at qualifying than race, generally

What would make this race more interesting is a Mercedes lockout, lock out the front row and right behind them – pile of frustration. Would love it. It’ll be a pressure cooker in Monaco

would be intersting If Nico scores pole, if Hamilton will let him build 2 second buffer ahead so they can work together to secure a win for Mercedes and not lose out in pits

Well Nico did score pole! This track presents the best chance for him to actually win

1. Rosberg
2. Hamilton
3. Vettel
4. Webber
5. Raikonnen
6. Alonso

Vettel must like his chances as well

For me I like this Monaco track though I like the fact that there is zero margin for error! One wrong turn and boom you are out of the race! I would be very suprised if the safety car doesn't come out tomorrow

Well said. I would be surprised myself if tthe safety car is not deployed on the first lap and even on two more occasions.

theres always a crash at a chicane in monaco... also it does not favor overtaking

No change of places amongst the top 6 at the start. Rosberg has to start opening up a lead for when he stops.

where is everyone!

Damn everyone is in tyre saving mode. Wonder who would be brave enough to try something else. Maybe Perez or Massa.
