Webbo didn't miss too many tricks :wink:

Mark always does well at qualifying @ Monaco 8) He's just close enough to his ex teamate to scare himself to death going into turn one :twisted:

I think the McLaren's will be hard to catch tomorrow. It will be interesting to see how they perform on the 'Super Soft' on the long run.

Massa may have more fuel than the McLarens however the level of performance on the 'Super Soft' will have a big impact on the strategies tomorrow.

Of course there is a chance for rain!

Should be an interesting race!

If it rains, I believe Webbo will be leading by lap 3, thanks to Adrian "downforce" Newy......assuming he survives Nico's first lap desperate, which I note he still continues to do at every start :evil:
