It is a very important race for the general opinion. No driver is rated to how often he has won Bahrain or Montréal (or fill in pretty much every other circuit), but there is a definate status when you're a 2, 3 or 4 time Monaco GP winner. It might be the quintessential GP of the old world.

Will Checo, as a street circuit specialist win this race?
For sure the pressure will be up him as it will be up LEC, here racing for his home audience.

My prediction:
1. PER
2. ALO
3. VER
4. RUS
5. LEC
Max,Checo then Fernie is my prediction.
After Checo's suspicious quali crash last year to keep pole I can't see Max giving this one away if there are no more shenanigans in quali. Anyone found crashing on purpose in quali for grid advantage after investigation should be DQ from the race.
