Maybe he is right about Monaco as Monaco doesn't need a strong power unit, also there are a lot of crashes in this race usually. Regarding ending Mercedes domination I think too Honda is the only team with the resources and capability to put an end to Mercedes domination still after 2-3 years don't think they can do it in 2017, but they will be the team to do it I have no doubt about this. Ferrari, Renault  have gonne conservative ways of producing their engine and they are at its maximum, Honda has taken a radical way so we can see beautiful progress within time passing.

Yeah, with the narrow track and has many hard bends there, its a common thing if we see many crashes in Circuit de Monaco. It totally depends on skill of the racer. Have no idea why Dennis too confident there, since both Alonso and Button still not on good position in the standings.

yes this race will be interesting almost no were to get pass and if it rains man it will be race like no race before
i remember that once it was race on rain and if i remember correctly only 4 drivers finish the race, back then only 6 drivers were given point so last two who crashed get point in that race
imagine race like that again but from weather forecast no way it will rain

My favorite Motosports are actually two Formula1 and MotoGP.In few hours there will be a practice match : Coca-Cola 600 (USA) - Practice 1 and I am already waiting for it.I love Motosports regardless where these are taking place.I am also used to ride sports bike but I am not of that level so by watching this feel happiness.

[crytoboost]

Formula 1 is my one of most favorite race and i also like MotoGP too but Formula 1 is more entertaining and full of twist so that i would like to say this it is one of the best motosport, we have some good chance to make huge profit from these races.

Very happy for Ricciardo, but Ferrari have lose aother time a good opportunity, because if Mercedes have a problem, Ferrari get win . In Monaco, power unit not is important and the redbull car is the better like aereodinamyc

[BitcoinSupremo]

I am doing a bet for fun this time as a fan of Mclaren, I am placing my bet for Fernando Alonso in the podium today @15.5 , odd is quite impressive but so is the task to win that odd, as I say just wanna see a good race with emotion thats why I bet 0.001 for 0.0155 just for fun. Hope to see a good race today.

Was quite busy atm, so didnt watch Formula 1. Btw its bad to know Raikkonen as my favorite racer couldn't finish the race, but at least Rio Haryanto could. Seems McLaren still hasn't made impressive performance yet, like what Ron Dennis said.

i must say that is true i didnt think here that its possible but this is yet again monaco and everything is possible

[BitcoinSupremo]

Maybe Mclaren was not that impressive but as Ron Dennis said, he was fighting against Ferrari and Williams, and as far as I know Fernando Alonso was 5th ,just one place behind ferrari while the Williams were far behind, so for me they have made quite some improvements but this was a track that suited them. It will be the Montreal race to show if the Honda engine truly have improved or not, remember last year when Alonso was saying, GP2 engine, GP 2 engine, lets see what happens there.

I think FIA has thought this issue and made policy to prevent this incident again.

yea that race was maybe best race ever in Monaco 4 driver finished and 3 more were classified in standings
this race yesterday had potential to be like that but they decided to start race behind safety car ?!?!
said back in they day they didnt matter for that like in spa back in 1998 if i recall when they crashed 2 time after start and 3 start was with 14 drivers if i recall correctly

maybe the crashing nowadays would cost pretty much, which it would be a big amount of money loss if they let it happens, so because of that FIA and the constructor teams trying to make the accident as little as possible. Yeah I like to see many crashes in every race it means that all of racers have high motivation to overtake each other and get podium, but in case the crashing don't risk the racer's life.
