On the streets of Monte Carlo it is very difficult to overtake and starting in one position or another can be decisive for the race. Both Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz are aware of this, while the former expects both he and Esteban Ocon to be in Q3 on Saturday and Sunday in points, Carlos Sainz has said he wants more than points in Monaco. The Madrilenian can be optimistic about it and dream of the podium as Ferrari has proven to be doing very well in Monte Carlo. Leclerc recorded the best time in FP2 and Carlos Sainz was second in both the first and second sessions. That is why Lando Norris has come to affirm that he sees the Spaniard winning the race.It should be noted that at the Monaco Grand Prix, downforce is more important than engine power. This is something that affects Max Verstappen, who has admitted that Red Bull is being slow on this track. Mercedes’ performance in Monte Carlo is also a question mark, a question that will begin to be cleared up in qualifying. Lewis Hamilton has won three of the four disputed to date and arrives in Monaco with a 14-point lead over Verstappen. Precisely the Mercedes driver has won three times in Monaco, where the Dutchman has not yet done so. Yes Fernando Alonso and Sebastián Vettel, both on two occasions, and Kimi Raikkonen and Daniel Ricciardo on one.
