Monaco is a street circuit and power is not everything. Being on pole is important as overtaking is difficult. Tires is also not so crucial as those high speed track where tires get eaten up like we eat chocolates. So it is anybody's race. Maybe for this year, it would be nice to see Kimi win this race.

The last time Kimi win here is 7 years ago. Among the current grid of drivers, Webber and Alonso both had 2 wins under their belt in Monaco. And for the past 3 years it seems Red bull are doing very well in Monaco. However, Ferrari and Merc aren't very far either.

It is anyone's game.

My prediction.

1. Vettel
2. Alonso
3. Kimi

takashi78 · « **Reply #180 on:** May 26, 2013, 11:24:28 AM »

I follow also.

1. Vettel
2. Alonso
3. Kimi

As much as i wanna see Merc and Roseberg win, too many times this season thus far their race pace suck too much !

Wow, both of you are spotting exactly the same prediction. Well, I'm here to break the rhythm. Although I feel that I'm gonna regret.

My prediction for 2013 Monaco GP
1) Nico Rosberg
2) Lewis Hamilton
3) Sebastian Vettel

Tonight’s race is EPIC.

One red flag, two safety car, and a race over two hour long.

Perez non-stop entertainment throughout the whole race, showing what he can do at chicane, and ending with a retirement in style. Sutil also not gimping as he demonstrates what he can do with the hairpin. Kimi’s leaps in the last few laps is superhuman. Vettel proves how lucky he can be, Hamilton proves how unlucky he can be, and Massa’s proves he can double fail at the same spot. Alonso sleep-walk the whole race, and Rosberg can be crowned as the getaway king.

Massa please get out and let him drive!

Congrats to Bezelnut for the 25 points. Good intuition.

The race was like a procession. They should remove Monaco.

Thanks, just got lucky.

Remove Monaco? No Way! It is by far the most interesting GP this year.

Except for the crashes i almost fell asleep.

bezelnut · « **Reply #190 on:** May 29, 2013, 11:35:08 AM »

Too bad.

Despite the waiting during safety car & red flag, I actually enjoy it quite a lot.

takashi78 · « **Reply #191 on:** May 29, 2013, 12:55:22 PM »

Checo was being too "desperate" to pass.

And who says its hard to pass in Monaco.

Kimi climbed from all the way back to overtaking on the last lap to grab a point !

7thfort · « **Reply #192 on:** June 07, 2013, 11:16:57 AM »

Get ready for this weekend race at Montreal, Canada.
