Loads of turns, possibility of wet or damp track, new cars with loads of torque etc.
Throw a few rookies and Pastor Murderanaldo into the mix and......

.........can't wait!! Always our most anticipated race of the season.

It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..

One of my favorite circuits - especially after lapping it several times in the F a few years ago just after the GP so all the track was still laid out.

Will be interesting this weekend as Monaco levels the performance advantage due to lack of long straights and many bends. The aero of the Fizzy Pop Team may prove superior, but I hope not. Don't mind a RB doing well, so long as it's the grinning simple one.
Hoping Williams do better this week.

Followed by 1983 last night ,Mansell leading in the JPS LOTUS until spun in a barrier. Senna showing superior skills in his first attempt at Monaco in torrential rain,Prost getting the hump waving his hands to stop when in 1st position as he was probably more concerned about the rookie Senna catching him at 4 seconds a lap in the Talbot.

Monaco Qualifying today. Rosberg. Cleared by the stewards.....

Hmmm, I'm not so sure it was accidental, and many others too.

Yes John why did Rosberg need to reverse could have waited the extra minute to qualy was over. Hamiltons demeanor in press conference,was a clear indication to me what he thought ,probably not helped by Rosbergs smile wider than the Joker.
First corner tomorrow could be interesting.

not very different to Schumacher's action in 2006. He got a penalty then.

Lots of post-race love between Nico and Lewis. Not.
Rosberg seems to be the ginger step kid of the paddock at the moment.

I love watching Monaco, my favourite F1 race of all time was the battle between Mansell and Senna battling for the last few laps.

This one however was a bit of a parade, until the last few laps once Hamilton gave up.
