2007 Monaco Grand Prix - Race - Alonso Lewis Dominate Monaco
May 27th, 2007 by Haas
Domination is probably a subtle word to describe the incidents at the Monaco Grand Prix for 2007. Alonso and Lewis finished a predictable one-two for Mc Laren but the way the did it was far from predictable. Alonso led the race from the start only challenged by his rookie team mate who for the first time finished lesser than first in a race at Monte Carlo. Massa drove home third in a race which he clearly had no chance of getting a better result. The Brazilian drove mostly a race of his own hardly ever bother by anyone.
Fisichella was my drive of the day. Giancarlo’s super drive saw Renault’s fight back and a hint that in the coming races they could clearly challenge the top two teams. Kubica and Heidfeld came in following the Italian, the German struggling in the earlier stage of the race with super soft tyres and holding up the pack for most of the stint.
Wruz and Kimi made up the last of the point scorers. The Finn having a tough race after the disappointing qualification and then being held up clearly by slower cars in a track that was impossible to overtake on. Still Ferrari and Kimi have to try and get their act together else the top 3 drivers will just run away at this pace.
The expected rain never arrived at the track and devoid the race of any possible action. Even the pitlane poker was pretty flat at the end of the day. Hopefully in Canada we will get to see a much more action packed race…
