In my couple years of looking at F1 racing........... i have taken a liking for the toyota team, trulli and glock are not impressive but i see they fight all the way.

Question..... how big of an advantage or disadvantage do teams have on each other when they are using the same engine? Take for example Brawn, Mclaren & Force India...If teams are using the same engine then is it harder to design a car to compete with your rivals ?

Since the first race i've been saying that Brawn has the adv. because of the old Honda team last year...same with Toyota because of their budget...that's why RBR has hands down been the most impressive team for me this year...

Nico Rosberg fastest yet again for today's free practice session 2 in Monaco.

Betcha he'll disappoint in qualifying and the race like he did for the entire season so far.

^for real.
I've heard from people who have attended f1 races that it is so loud even up in the viewing stands.

F1 isn't won by the major designs...chassis etc. are almost the same all across the board...its the nitty gritty and the hundreths of seconds here and there that adds up...RBR has the staff, funding and experience to get that extra bit...

This is going to be Ferrari's best change to get a podium for the season, hell, they could even get the race victory if Kimi manages to jump Button on the start using KERS.

Overtaking in Monaco is near impossible.

It will be tricky tho.

The distance from the front of the grid to Sainte Devote (Turn 1) is quite short, and KERS can only be used when the car's speed is greater than 100km/h.

By the time he reaches the required speed to press the button, he'd have reached the braking zone...

Oh well, we'll see how the start is tomorrow. Expect huge accident(s) in lap 1 in Turn 1 cuz of those huge front wings.

yeah the start will be the main event methinks, from then on its amtter of who can keep their nerve and keep away from the walls till the end....we all know Monaco for all its scenery is just a procession....
