    Is there enough room for me on the MS bandwagon?? I try not to make predictions until after qualifying but hopefully it will go 8 for 8.

    I never make predictions but something is whispering Kimi to me.
    If they race.

    I would not be surprised or disappointed if Kimi got a win this season.

    It should also be noted that this track favors the chassis with very soft front end setups as this arrangement allows a driver to be more greedy with curbs.

    At this rate the majority of drivers will get their chance at the top step.

    +8/9

    The only difference I'd have is Webber higher up, between the McLarens.

    Thank you.
    I was thinking that I was the only one old enuf to make the connection.
    Cut to Kimi singing "the Night They Invented Champagne" :)

    I would have said Mercedes had this walking away, but now that they've decided to go with only one DRS zone this year instead of two, the Mercedes f-duct straight line advantage will be mitigated somewhat. The Williams also seems to do well in a straight line and has great low-speed traction.

    So I'll still stick with them:

    1) ROS
    2) MSC
    3) MAL

    I really wanted to go with Schum for the win but I think his advantage was down to final qualifying being on the supersofts and it being Monaco, Michael's natural habitat. Unfortunately I think Nico will be faster this week, but hopefully I'm wrong.

    I would be very happy with another Nico win. If I may step out on a limb that was mentioned before I would be over the top if Perez can pull something out via the way he can doctor his tire wear for his first win, he has it in him as a driver imo. Frankly I'm just glad I get to watch another F1 race this weekend, good times!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yup.
    Any bets on how many posts there are on Sunday asking wazzup? No race on TV.

    Well...........



    On a serious note and I hope this is not taken personaly ok? I have never understood the whole 'predictions threads or assumptions' before even practice or qualifying has taken place, maybe I am dumber or smarter than I let on but in motorsports, in any series, is unpredictable not only from lap to lap but turn by turn.

    Shh!

    Next thing you'll be announcing that the Emperor is sans pantaloons.

    Of course it's pointless but it's a fun way to have skin in the game without risking any money (or beer).
