Yo le voy a los mas viejos "la espuela" jajaja un Alonso, un Schumi (mientras no choque o se reviente el motor del mercedes) inclusive el mismo Raikkonen, hay que ver que tan bien se desempeña Perez, por que el año pasado iba bien, hasta que casi se mata en la salida del tunel, en fin igual que las carreras anteriores esta abierta para muchos, y hasta que no caiga la de no se puede saber nada, la mejor temporada de F1 que yo eh visto.

James Allison director técnico del equipo Lotus confirma que para Mónaco llevan un nuevo alerón trasero que les permita una mayor carga aerodinámica así como algunos cambios en el diseño de los pontones. También planean hacer algunas modificaciones en la suspensión que le permitan al E20 reducir el radio de giro (importante tomando en cuenta las curvas tan trabadas que presenta dicho trazado, como ejemplo Loews Hairpin y Rascasse).

En Mónaco una buena aceleración y una alta carga aerodinámica son dos puntos clave debido a la gran cantidad de curvas que el cricuito monegasco tiene, así como cambios de dirección que demandan un buen balance en los autos lo cual resulta muy difícil de encontrar. Otro punto importante será el comportamiento de los neumáticos en un circuito que presenta un bajo nivel de agarre, para este Gran Premio Pirelli pondrá a disposición de los equipos el compuesto blando y super blando.

Remi Taffin jefe de operaciones de Renault Sport F1 nos confirma la importancia de una buena aceleración en este circuito debido al predominio de curvas, la mayoría de ellas muy cerradas, lo cual implica una buena respuesta del motor en bajas revoluciones.

" The track has the lowest average speed of the year due to the high number of tight corners so the focus is on delivering driveability through the lower rev ranges but also getting the gear ratios right to give effective acceleration between the corners."

Nos devolvemos en el tiempo unos 83 años para presenciar el primer Gran Premio celebrado en las calles de Mónaco en esa ocasión con victoria de William Grover-Williams (1903 - 1945) abordo de un Bugatti 35B. Con esto podemos decir que el Gran Premio de Mónaco es sinónimo de historia en la Formula 1.

No se esperan actualizaciones importantes en la F2012 para el Gran Premio de Mónaco este fin de semana, sin embargo para el Gran Premio de Canadá se espera que Ferrari lleve un nuevo alerón delantero y trasero.

"For Monaco we have a few more small updates that will bring some more downforce to the car, but the interesting thing there is how each car uses its tyres, it is going to be a constant drive for updating, like everyone does these days. We have a different rear wing and front wing package for Canada, which is a slightly different downforce level. And then we are working on the exhaust system. There will be versions of that that we will test. We learned a lot at the start of the year in understanding the problems we had from that, and we had another go at Mugello." - Pat Fry

Edd Straw y Sam Tremayne de Autosport nos comentan sobre los 5 GP's de Mónaco mas famosos. Le agregue unos videos para complementar:

Famous Five

1965

Graham Hill fought back from running up an escape road to take his third straight victory in the Principality in 1965. With Jim Clark and Dan Gurney absent (the Indianapolis 500 was on the same weekend) and Team Lotus withdrawing, Hill's main competition came from BRM team-mate Jackie Stewart and the two Ferraris of Lorenzo Bandini and John Surtees.

Having qualified on pole, Hill led in the early stages but on lap 25 came upon Bob Anderson's DW Racing Brabham, travelling slowly due to a mechanical fault. Hill had to dive down an escape road and dropped to fifth, but fought his way back up the order, passing Stewart, Surtees and finally Bandini – who had inherited the lead when Jack Brabham retired – to seal victory. He would win twice more, in 1968 and '69, earning the moniker the ‘King of Monaco'.

The race was also famous for a crash in which Paul Hawkins became only the second – and to date last – man to have ended up in the harbour following an accident at the chicane.

1970

Just four months before his death at Monza, Jochen Rindt claimed what was his first win of the season – and only the second of his career – in a last-lap shootout at Monaco.

Team Lotus elected to bring the 49C, rather than the newer 72 it had wheeled out at a non-championship race, and struggled in qualifying – Rindt the squad's best-placed driver in eighth.

The race proved attritional however, and Rindt began to make his way up the order as the leaders were beset by a variety of technical afflictions. On lap 61 he inherited second when Chris Amon's March stopped with suspension failure. The Austrian set about closing a nine second gap to race leader Jack Brabham, and was swarming all over the rear of the Brabham BT33 at the start of the last lap. Brabham finally cracked, running wide and into straw bails at the final turn, presenting Rindt with his first victory of the year. He would win four more times before being killed in practice for the Italian Grand Prix. He became F1's first posthumous world champion.

1982

Just a fortnight after Gilles Villeneuve's death at Zolder, F1 arrived at Monte Carlo still reeling, and the disarray was inadvertently reflected in a chaotic end to the Monaco Grand Prix.

A total of 11 cars failed to get through pre-qualifying and qualifying, but 20 cars still contributed to what was a fairly quiet and well behaved start. Renault's Rene Arnoux initially led, but a lap 15 spin promoted team-mate Alain Prost into the lead.

The order stayed fairly static until the race's closing stages, when rain began to fall. Keke Rosberg had already been caught out when, entering the 74th of 76 laps, Prost went off heavily at the chicane. That was the start of a remarkable sequence: Riccardo Patrese took the lead but spun at the Loews hairpin, with Didier Pironi moving to the head of the field. Into the last lap Pironi's Ferrari slowed dramatically as it used the last dregs of fuel. Andrea de Cesaris's Alfra Romeo 182B should have taken the lead, but it too had run dry – allowing Patrese, who had bump-started his car down the hill, to come through and claim victory.

1996

"I don't think I'll ever forget the sound of the yacht sirens in the harbour and the fireworks being let off during my lap of honour. Then when I was handed the French flag, I couldn't resist taking it. Ever since seeing Prost do it, I've always wanted to see it happen again. But how could I have imagined that it would be my turn next, on this circuit which has always meant so much to me..."

Since 1986, the winner of the Monaco Grand Prix has always come from the top three on the grid, with one exception: 1996, when Olivier Panis took the unlikeliest of triumphs in an attritional wet race.

Poleman Michael Schumacher made an uncharacteristic mistake on the opening lap, crashing out after clattering the kerbs, allowing Damon Hill and Jean Alesi to escape. Behind them, a gaggle of cars formed up behind Eddie Irvine's Ferrari, which was being made as wide as possible as the Scuderia struggled in the tricky conditions.

Hill eventually retired with a gearbox problem and Alesi with broken suspension, leaving the door open for a surprise winner.

Heinz-Harald Frentzen blew his chance of being that man with a botched attempt to pass Irvine, while David Coulthard's day was scuppered by McLaren's decision to prioritise team-mate Mika Hakkinen in the stops. Through the confusion Panis had moved up the order, and on lap 35 dived down the inside of Irvine at Loews. The pair touched but Panis was through, Irvine stalling at the side of the road. There was still time for Coulthard to close in the final stages, getting to within five seconds as the chequered flag waved, Panis sealing his only grand prix victory. Frentzen in fourth was the last of the race's finishers.

2006

2006 will forever be famous for Michael Schumacher's 'crash' at Rascasse in the dying moments of qualifying. On provisional pole, Schumacher's stricken car had the added benefit of preventing Renault's Fernando Alonso from beating his time.

Despite protestations of innocence the German was sent to the back of the grid for his misdemeanour, the stewards report saying: "The stewards can find no justifiable reason for the driver to have braked with such undue, excessive and unusual pressure at this part of the circuit, and are therefore left with no alternatives but to conclude that the driver deliberately stopped his car on the circuit in the last few minutes of qualifying, at a time at which he had thus far set the fastest lap time."

Schumacher showed his class the following day, coming through the field to eventually finish fifth. The race would however do severe damage to his reputation, and also sully his record at Monaco – although he remains a legend at the circuit, having won five times (and it could easily have been more) between 1994 and 2001.
