First of two practice will be under way in just over 3 hours. Monaco has traditionally had thursday practice, friday events, and then everything reverts back to normal on for race weekend.

also Alonso will be wearing a gold colored helmet for Monaco GP

Historically the outcome of this race is very dependent on starting grid position. However with this years available tires tire de-gradation will be a real issue. So good pit work and timing will probably matter more than grid position. It will be a very interesting race!!!

I voted Lewis but would much prefer Button to snag the win...if the race is indeed 2-stop feasible then my vote is split 50-50 between the two. Button for his tire conservation, Hamie for his aggressive overtaking. Regardless, I'm excited for Monaco!

Thankfully he is fine and may be race-ready in time for Canada. For a few moments though I was staring at the screen hoping and praying it would not be serious. When they covered off the area though and when Speed said he did not respond to the radio communication from the team, I felt really worried. Hope there are no more of such incidents in the race tomorrow.

And go for it Jenson Button.

Can't see the race . Have to start working when the race starts . And Monaco is normally 1 of the races I really want to see . I want to see the F1 in Monaco in real life once . But the prices are putting me of . Spa-Francochamps in Belgium was allready very expensive .

I hope that a Ferrari wins . Our someone else then Vettel just to keep the championship exciting .
