:D Wow! This is REALLY fun!! I'm picking Sebastian Vettel to take the pole and the race, but any of my top 5 could end on the top step of the podium, depending on the rain and the always possible crash that comes from pushing JUST a bit too hard!

Anyway, here are my picks:

1. Seb. Vettel; he is defending champ, the slightly lower speed of the RBR will be no handicap in Monaco and he is a brilliant qualifyer.
2. Fernando Alonso; the lack of speed in the Ferrari will be MORE THAN made up for by the ferocity of the driver; he WANTS TO BEAT SEB in the worst way this year and he may just start doing that here.
3. Jenson Button; is the perfect driver for Monaco; he's just not quite as ferocious as Fernano or as quick as Seb.
4. Kimi Raikkonen; he hasn't quite managed to qualify high enough this year and being in the second or third row on the grid will hurt him; still, if anyone stumbles, he'll eat them up!
5. Lewis Hamilton; I think he's lost something. I can't put my finger on it, but the magic seems to be gone
6. Romain Grosjean; he's really hungry and he's driving a real hot rod
7. Mark Webber; he might be three or four slots higher, depending on how he qualifies (last year at Monaco he was 3 on the grid!)
8. Sergio Perez; he's been collecting points regularly (and quietly)
9. Pastor Maldonado; was sensational in Spain; could repeat here
10. Nico Rosberg; should be higher up, I just couldn't find room for him!

Pole: Sebastian V., the Man can fly

will be enjoying this race as warm up to Indy,
