I'm really curious what difference we can expect in cornering speeds with these new '22 cars.

Nope, I like it too.
Yeah I love the Monaco GP. Qualifying is tense and I think the cars look great around there.

I do wish that Pirelli would make a special compounds for around here that is beyond softer then the C5 tyre. It would be nice to have more variation in strategy

The Alfa has the shortest wheelbase. It's a good bet!
Alfa is my spoiler for pole. Their s3 performance in Spain was only .1s off the best time, and that is like the entire Monaco circuit.

The most hideous circuit of all where you can win with half dead car or completely dead tyres if you are ahead. With Pirellis having warming up problems, overcut is more beneficial than an undercut. I won't be surprised to see whole of Q3, cars would be out on one set trying to set a fast lap time.

Always look forward to it. The cars look fantastic, the onboards are amazing.

Using all 3 compounds in the race has been suggested, as has mandating 2 stops.

Bold prediction: there will be genuine on track overtakings. Several of them (several as in 3 or more). Between cars on different tire strategies or massively out of place. (and a very pleased Ross Brawn).
Rivals, not enemies.

Mercedes side pods should come into full force here! Massive barn door wings with minimal drag!
They were trash in S3 in Barcelona. There was a technical explanation as to why somewhere out there.
