Last year, I seem to remember that Max made most of his overtakes by following cars through when he was blue flagged. Now that he will be on the lead lap, he can't put that to any use. As for Renault, I thought it was a poorly kept secret that it'll be 1 new PU for KMag and 1 for Ricciardo. They can't get one for Palmer or Verstappen because of 'manufacturing issues' - I hadn't heard that both PUs would be going to RBR.iotar__ wrote:No:
- A. out-qualified by Sainz and two slower cars (Perez, Maldo), crash in the race
- B. He's probably getting older spec engine as a consolation prize for Ricciardo for Spanish GP strategy. Btw did you notice how similar Rosberg's '15 Monaco win was to Barcelona? I don't recall people fainting and calling him driver of the day, unlike D.R. everyone was focusing on Hamilton and not the brilliant winner.
The fact that Renault are not providing their own drivers with new engines shows how amateurish and lukewarm their approach to running full team is. In 2 years the corporate ignorant will be surprised again finishing 9th.
THIS! A lot of people are buying into the red bull PR blitz...2 messups by Ferrari in 2 qualifying sessions and the Red bull machine will have you buying into the spin that red bull is on par with Ferrari...StrikeForceF1 wrote:Seriously.. In one race Redbull have not only leapfrogged Ferrari but they have Leapfrogged Mercedes too. Do you honestly believe that..sure Redbull had a strong race last race but do u really believe they are the class of the field..I agree thay will be alot closer to the top but I would rather say that its going to be a duel between the top 3 teams in Monaco.FrukostScones wrote:so RIC gets the upgrade Renault PU...?!?
P1 for him then, in qualy and race. unless RB is set back by FIA tyre pressure anti-cheat-initiatve

Everybody always says how Monaco is a boring race, and I don't get that. I think it is one of the best of the year.
Sure, there is not a lot of overtaking going on, but the track and scenery is awesome, and something always happens here.
