So after the sadly cancelled GP at Imola, it's time for Monaco.
For a lot of people not an interesting race as overtaking on this narrow street circuit is almost impossible. But somehow Monaco always delivers with drama. Either crashes, qualifying or strategic mistakes or ingenuity. It is a very important race for the general opinion. No driver is rated to how often he has won Bahrain or Montréal (or fill in pretty much every other circuit), but there is a definate status when you're a 2, 3 or 4 time Monaco GP winner. It might be the quintessential GP of the old world. Will Checo, as a street circuit specialist win this race? For sure the pressure will be up him as it will be up LEC, here racing for his home audience. My prediction: 1. PER 2. ALO 3. VER 4. RUS 5. LEC

After Checo's suspicious quali crash last year to keep pole I can't see Max giving this one away if there are no more shenanigans in quali. Anyone found crashing on purpose in quali for grid advantage after investigation should be DQ from the race. |

F1 teams getting to Monaco could be a problem with trucks and equipment stuck at evacuated Imola I hate to say, some of Bologna airport is under water too? On top of that some logistics could have flood damaged equipment.

Red Bull is due for some misfortune. Ferrari is due for some good fortune. Aston Martin - especially in the hands of ALO - only suffers in the straights.
I'm going with: ALO LEC SAI |

From what we have seen in first 5 races , the 2023 Ferrari is very bad with the tyres and the lack of pace . The Monaco race is always a gamble with yellow flags and the safety car . Well , hopefully we can get the necessary tension and excitement .. I think It's for MAX ..

It'll need a lot of ticks for that to happen, Coulthard has made a damning overview of Leclerc and it was Charlie that was setting his own car up with a measure of guesswork in the previous races as Ferrari had run out of ideas.

Interesting to see all the different predictions.
Monaco is just so difficult to predict. Maybe that's why driver are held in higher esteem if they win it. It's not just a matter of having the fastest car, it's a mix of having everything working your way (incl. the team) and even then a little luck works with you.

I think this is Max's. If not for the Q3 crash, I think he'd have stuck it on Pole and won last year. I dont think he's forgotten that and will be driver to beat.
