Winner: Kimi Raikkonen
Second: Michael Schumacher
Third: Jarno Trulli
Fourth: Giancarlo Fisichella
Fifth: Mark Webber
Sixth: Ralf Schumacher
Seventh: Juan Pablo Montoya
Eighth: David Coulthard

Pole: Kimi Raikkonen



There we go thats a winner!!!!!

If your wondering where Alonso is, well its my prediction that he will get smashed within the first lap by some bloke by the name of Rubens (whoever that is!!). Don't underestimate Ferrari's sneakiness
There are no stupid questions, only stupid people.......

I Totally disagree with Bundy here...
it will be smth like:


Winner: Fisichella
Second: Montoya
Third: Kimi
Fourth: Alonso
Fifth: Rubens
Sixth: Webber
Seventh: Trulli
Eighth: Heidfeld

Pole: Fisichella



If your wondering where MShumierda is, well its my prediction that he will do a BAD qualif. so got stuck behind DC for the long first sint... too far away from Heidfeld for a recover ;) Don't overestimate Ferrari's cheat-like-unlimited-tests

I'm here.

As you can see from my picks I have not given up hope. And even if I did, I would continue selecting Michael Schumacher to win and take pole.

Makes for a nice simple selection each time.

My guess is Pole, if you ask what I think.

Then I think he will qualify very very light, in order to egt as close to the front of the grid as possible. Likely between 4 and 7 on the grid.

A newbies selection (if anyone cares enough to take an interest!)

Pole - Jarno Trulli

1st Fernando Alonso
2nd Giancarlo Fisichella
3rd Jarno Trulli


4th Nick Heidfeld
5th Kimi Raikkonen
6th Ralf Schumacher
7th Michael Schumacher
8th Rubens Barrichello


Jarno has a great race last year at Monaco with Renault, and the Toyota has really impressed me, the balance of the car is alomost perfect, and will be a big plus for such a tricky circuit. But i do feel its launch control will be Toyotas disadvantage at the start, and both Renaults will pass it.

ah... I see. that waht you thinks is much better, i mean, logical, at least, i reckon that if MS goes realy light he could indeed qualify 7th ... ;) I think they'll decide on friday or sat. morninig if do a light or heavy qualify... but if you remember, MS didn't pass anyone while he was waiting for clear track (the same in Spain and Imola) before the 1st pitstop, so monaco I think, will be the same - he Q'ng slow'n'heavy...
why do you think they'll change it this time?

I think that everyone will qualify light(ly), and only go one-stop. Except those who have build a car with a fueltank not able to hold enough to allow for that.

Trick will be to qualify as lightly as possible, and then ride the race out on the initialy heavy car.

All my guessing is based on a dry race. Wet and Michael can win from last on the grid.
