I think Ferrari has won 13 championships in the last 9 years, not just 11. What a shame they couldn’t triumph anytime since 01.

My 2 cents for Raikkonen this weekend, but rain is an exciting factor (despite the fact that rain had been forecast for the last ten years or so but never really been true) and Renault may have some surprises

The Ferrari fan in me wishes Kimi or Felipe’ break the duck this year , but logic that Lewis will put his Mclaren on pole makes me think he can win – provided no tyre issues , in which case it could be Kubica’s first.

The BBC is forecasting rain for Sunday.

Could it be that the first wet race without traction control is going to be around the Principality??

Rock and Roll people!!!

I do hope it rains at Monaco, its been a while since we had a wet race there, and in qualifying I think it could prove especially decisive.
At the moment, Ferrari have the momentum, and both their drivers have the confidence, but Monaco is the real acid test for how far they have progressed.
I think they can, and will, achieve it. I really believe that Ferrari have ironed out the shortcomings of the F2007 car, and that the package will be competitive in Monaco. As far as the drivers go, I really believe that Raikkonen will prevail with a lights to flag victory, with Hamilton splitting the Ferrari’s for second.
The battle for the remaining podium will be between Massa and the two BMW Sauber’s, especially Kubica.
However, Kovalainen could well be involved, so the closest action may be for the last podium place between those drivers.

I don’t think Ferrari will break the duck this year.

My head says either Hamilton, Kovi or Kubica will win. But my heart says Go Alonso !

Of course, I don’t think any of my predictions this year have come to pass

I beleive Alonso and Kubica both have a good shot at winning this race.
