Clearly. I'm surprised he never parted the armco to save the car though, being the new Senna/Christ and all that.

He went to Monaco fully expecting to win. I wouldn't be surprised if Coulthard won it. It's forecast to be a wet race, and he always goes very well around there.

I hope Kimi wins, with Massa 2ndand Alonso 3rd to keep the championship in balance.

I love Monaco, and I love the GP. I think a wet race could be epic.

I think a lot of people forget that Lewis has raced on most of the current F1 circuits when he was racing in GP2 last year and that includes Monaco. So I'm not surprised he's doing so well.

As for his crash. I don't doubt someone else will have a bigger shunt over the weekend.

I wonder if DC was really as blameless as he made out?

And where did Rosberg come from?
